Legacy Username/Domain exclusion

[dihuta]

Hello,

I have an idea to solve the email address & DBT User tagging feature.

Cosmic - No issue
Fillip H. - No issue
me@gmail.com - this will cause an issue on my site. How can DBT solve it?

We can have a place to input username/domain to exclude from Automatic tagging.

For example

gmail.com
mail.com
yahoo.com
yahoo.com.vn
yahoo.co.uk
hotmail.com
....

These string will not be tagged when they have @ before.
Thank you.

Off the top of my head that could cause huge load problems on larger sites. Fillip H. will know for sure.

It could cause load issues yeah, though it couldn't hurt to have as an option.

We also have alternate means of preventing email tagging planned for a future update

If it is just an options in AdminCP, I think it will not have effect to the server performance.

If a site had a long list and several tags in each page of posts - or someone tags all of their friends etc checking each of them against a large list could be a bit intensive. Nothing too major, but we try to consider every little bit when designing our features =)

dihuta@yahoo.com --> this will be an issue on my forum. But on this site it's ok.

How can you do this?

There's probably no user called yahoo.com on this forum.
