Post removal

Hi @kowalafrance,
How did you determine that the spam is coming from people the forum? It sounds like typical spam you’d receive regardless of a forum tread.

Hi Andrew,

This post often appears in my referrals. No later than yesterday, i got an email with “test” as subject and “test” as message, and my referral stats say i got one visit from this link yesterday. I noticed the same pattern many times.
Not long ago, I even got a message from someone saying that he had found my post on wordpress support forum and that he’d like to know if my problem was now solved.

This doesn’t look like spam at all.

*Looks*

Editing or deleting posts here is only done in extreme cases.

It’s a contact form on the Internet. I’m sorry, but that’s hardly an extreme case and we’re not going to edit every contact form URL out of all the posts for that reason. Especially as this is something you can easily sort out yourself.

*Looks again*

You are using Apache/2.2.31 (FreeBSD) behind Cloudflare. Put these lines in your .htaccess file above all the other WordPress entries.

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST}  kowala\.fr [NC]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/contactez-nous/(.*)
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} wordpress\.org
RewriteRule .* - [F]
</IfModule>

When anyone with a www.ads-software.com referer hits your server kowala.fr and your /contactez-nous/ URI then the request will be dropped. That will solve your problem and will prevent us from doing something we’re not going to do: edit all those posts like yours.
