Nope, doesn't work on present version.. Excellent.

It seems that what is happening requesting a category or 'New products' and also including the 'buy_now' action in the GET so it loads the whole category, adds it to the cart and then lists the shopping cart. This is very CPU intensive on the database especially if the cart has 2000 products in it. ...

TBH as this is causing such an issue for us I think I'll do a quick and easy fix and just change the name of the action from 'buy_now' to something bespoke for now until I get cloudflare up and running. Fairly convinced they have marked the site as 'os-commerce' type so are using standard attacks fo...

Hi, I may try them anyway, I believe you can give them a challenge if in certain countries which may probably stop them. They're not from the same ASN, they are originating from over 100 different countries so far, thousands of different IP's. Blocking 80 countries with iptables has made it more man...

Thanks. I am considering Cloudflare but as it seems like perfectly legitimate call not sure if it will help, as rate limiting won't work as there are thousands of IP's normally only making one fetch every few hours. At one point our MYSQL was having 58,000 queries per second. Retrieving a massive ca...

They are using the following type of URL: (example) domain/acopel-f400-35516...

Probably go scrape data for their Llama AI. I blocked it via htaccess.

Apologies, I realised I could just ask the AI, it came back with:
SELECT c.countries_iso_code_2 FROM orders o JOIN countries c ON o.billing_country = c.countries_name WHERE o.orders_id = 1234
Apologies for the bandwidth.

Hi. I need SQL queries to retrieve the country ISO codes(2 char) for customers billing address and order delivery addresses, by order_id. Can anyone help? As an aside, I've put the some of the schema and extra info into GPT4, works well to retrieve order info and sales stats etc. Creates SQL and I q...

UK_Scottish Highlands UK- Scottish Offshore Islands UK-Northern Ireland UK- Isle of Wight UK-Channel Islands UK-Gibraltar Precisely because some of them don't charge of VAT and different zone rate shipping charges for each area are...
