Hello everyone,
===============================================================
How complex is the forum protection procedure, and can someone who doesn't know PHP do it? Is there a step-by-step guide, and what level of access to the site should the user (moderator) have?
We need to know what kind of person to assign to this task.

Hosting fees are collected collectively. Therefore, a request to disable the forum is meaningless. Perhaps someone did it by mistake (some moderator/administrator).
I urge you to enable the forum so that it is possible to figure out what happened.
Thank you in advance.

You need to protect against bots at the core level - with a simple check (logical condition). Therefore, the user does not need to be a MODERATOR, but needs to have FULL access to the core - which means the password to the HOST... If you have any questions, feel free to send me a private message.
