Comment authorization?

  • Hi, I have comments on my site and some people just say mean things and leave a bad email. I have tried to use Skippys Comment Auth plugin and it is not working. I really would not like to moderate all the comments, does anyone have a suggestion to a plugin or hack that will make people put in a correct email address?

  • In your Admin Panels, Options > Discussion and choose to moderate all comments.

    Yes, people say mean things. Moderating will work, or you can try a variety of Comment Spam plugins, but they mostly catch the time wasters selling male enhancement trash, drugs, and other junk. They don’t catch the “mean things” very well, but they catch some of them.

    Thanks Lorelle,

    yeah, I know about the moderating, but i just dont have the time, and even when i do i dont feel like moderating. I dont get much spam through because of the plugins i have, and i have that polite filter on and working, but i wanted that system where people comment, then get the email that tells them to click this link to post the comment. Which is where Skippys plugin came in, but that isnt working.
