Block Spamming Websites

Well, an effective measure would be blocking the IP from which they are leaving all those comments. Each comment has associated with it an IP address, and you can copy/paste that into this function, and then put this function into your themes functions.php file.

$allowed_ips = array(COMMA SEPARATED LIST OF IP's i.e. '123.12.123.12', 123.12.321.12');

$ip=$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

if(!in_array($ip, $allowed_ips)) wp_die('Are you a spammer? Then no soup for you!');

Some people will complain that an IP blacklist is overkill, and you’ll block people that you don’t mean to, but this is just a quick example. Maybe I’ll throw together a plugin.

Are they manually submitted or automated comments? Have you tried Akismet?

Thanks for your replies, I haven’t tried Akismet, I guess one person can not submit same comment on all may pages (entire blog posts) those are automated I guess.

Let me try with blocking IP, I hope it works.

Thanks a lot!

Dear Easel

While I copied the code you posted and uploaded the file the page was showing error

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING, expecting ‘)’ in /home/content/s/g/e/sgexpert/html/blog/wp-content/themes/seotheme/functions.php on line 17

Any help!

Were you able to figure this out @seoglobalexpert?
