Details

edit

Sets whether to use DNS blocklists in $wgDnsBlacklistUrls to check for open proxies. This replaced $wgEnableSorbs .

Usage

edit
  • This is an array of either a URL or an array with the URL and a key (should)
$wgDnsBlacklistUrls = [
  // String containing URL
  'http.dnsbl.sorbs.net.',
  // Array with URL and key, for services that require a key
  [ 'dnsbl.httpbl.net.', 'mykey' ],
  // Array with just the URL. While this works, it is recommended that you
  // just use a string as shown above
  [ 'opm.tornevall.org.' ]
];
You should end the domain name with a . to avoid searching your eventual domain search suffixes.
