    Hello
    I got some people tried to add some comments and they got this message:
    Your comment has been blocked because the blog owner has set their spam filter to not allow comments from users behind proxies.

    If you are a regular commenter or you feel that your comment should not have been blocked, please contact the blog owner and ask them to modify this setting.

    Please let me know what do I need to do
    Many Thanks

    I have checked with the developer of WP… it’s not coming from his plug in, any idea ?
    Thanks

    I already TOLD you. its the wp-spamfree plugin.

    https://www.hybrid6.com/webgeek/plugins/wp-spamfree

    Its in the code

    function spamfree_denied_post_proxy($approved) {
    	// REJECT PROXY COMMENTERS :: BEGIN
    
    	// Update Count
    	update_option( 'spamfree_count', get_option('spamfree_count') + 1 );
    	// Akismet Accuracy Fix :: BEGIN
    	$ak_count_pre	= get_option('ak_count_pre');
    	$ak_count_post	= get_option('akismet_spam_count');
    	if ($ak_count_post > $ak_count_pre) {
    		update_option( 'akismet_spam_count', $ak_count_pre );
    		}
    	// Akismet Accuracy Fix :: END
    
    	$spamfree_proxy_error_message_detailed = '<span style="font-size:12px;"><strong>Your comment has been blocked because the blog owner has set their spam filter to not allow comments from users behind proxies.</strong><br /><br />If you are a regular commenter or you feel that your comment should not have been blocked, please contact the blog owner and ask them to modify this setting.<br /><br /></span>'."\n";

    Look at the last line. Thats right out of the wp-spmafree plugin.
    Eventually you need to figure out to visit the settings page for that plugin and toggle OFF whatever setting is causing that.

    Hello
    Thanks for your help
    I am going to check then

    WP-SpamFree — WordPress settings:
    Allow users behind proxy servers to comment?
    Most users should leave this unchecked. Many human spammers hide behind proxies.

    So what are proxy servers? Guess I have one since I cannot leave a comment on my own blog.
