Comment spam, part 2.

Filed under: — Nat @ 9:16 pm

Argh. The simple and stupid spam-fighting tricks don’t foil the vandals who go to the trouble of parsing the weblog page to figure out what the comment-post script is called.

So now I’m trying out Spam Karma instead, which at the very least sounds nice and had a really convenient install.

If it causes problems with comment posting, please let me know.

If it works out, I’ll probably install it on UDP too.

Still hating the damn spammers, though.

Edit: After a little fiddling to get it to work with the threaded-comments hack (it needs the same change that popup comments do), it’s working perfectly, and it installed really smoothly through the plugin-manager plugin. Excellent!
