So much spam!

Posted on Saturday 14 October 2006

I've just stuck some spam filtering code into the contact form on this site.  If it rejects any valid emails, leave me a comment and I'll try to fix the problem.

    I suggest you use Spam Karma 2. I use it for three of my blogs, and it stops all spam and hasn't killed innocent comments even once.

    Glad I found this blog. I don't understand why it is a big issue, with wordpress and most of blogging cms' out there, using the 'need approval' setting for the comment submitted should already help prevent anything form showing. Correct me if I'm wrong. kebakaran harga ansul

    Actually, I'm referring to the contact form, not the comment forms. I am passing the form through the Akismet API, which has worked wonderfully, if anyone is wondering.
