Who Needs Moonito's Anti-bot and Anti-spam Magic?

For Medium to Large Sites and Heavy CMS Users (e.g., MyBB): Reduces server load, saving processor resources, RAM, traffic, and internet bandwidth.
To Combat Spam: Shields against spam in contact forms, posts, registrations on forums, and comments on blogs. Also prevents bots from generating spam orders in online stores.
Protection from Cyber Threats: Defends against vulnerability searches, XSS attacks, and brute force attempts on admin areas.
Content Security: Guards against content theft by parsers that create non-unique content on other websites. Blocks email address collection by automated tools.
Defense Against Analyzers: Protects from content analyzers like AhrefsBot, Majestic, SEMrushBot, and similar tools. Safeguards against price analyzers, SEO analyzers of competitors, RKN bots, and antiviruses.
Counter Advertising Fraud: Filters out bots that inflate impressions and clicks on ads, preventing skewed statistics on counters.

Download and Install

First, sign up for the domain you want to protect and learn about its visitors on Moonito's Analytics page.
Download Moonito PHP Library and extract the contents of the .zip file. (Download Link: https://moonito.net/moonito-php-lib.1.0.1.zip)
Upload the lib directory and its contents.
Modify the configuration in lib/config.php according to your preferences.

<?php

// Put your API Public Key here
$apiPublicKey = 'Your API Public Key';

// Put your API Secret Key here
$apiSecretKey = 'Your API Secret Key';

// Protection option
// If set to 'true,' it turns on the protection
// If set to 'false,' it turns off the protection
$isProtected = true;

// Unwanted visitors redirection
// Leave it blank for default error response
$unwantedVisitorRedirect = '';

To fully protect the entire forum (anti-spam + anti-bot), after <?php in inc/config.php (MyBB Config), include the following code:

include_once($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/lib/detector.php");

To protect against spam registrations only, after <?php in member.php (MyBB Member), include the following code:
