I have finally reached the point of "crazy" with all of the spam comments and can take no more. I am using Anti-comment-SPAM and Akismet but I am still getting hit by around 5-50 spams a day. Before the two plugins I probably pull in between 100 and 200. So they helped but not enough as I don't have time to delete the spam that makes it through.

I can't figure out how to disable comments? Any help?

Thanks,
Scott

Search forum - there are posts saying how to do that.

You should use the captcha addon/hack, no spam anymore!

I'm using Pixelpost 1.5 and am also getting hundreds of Spam per day. Akismet isn't doing the business for me.

Connie - can you assist?

GeoS - I've searched the forums and can't find and info on this, can you point me in the right direction

thanks

I.e. comment system based on AJAX. I need to get some free time to make public solution similar to mine.

PS For now you can try many CAPTCHA solutions.

I am running the newest version, 1.5.

I am using CAPTCHA and Akismet. I can't figure out how I am still getting so much spam with CAPTCHA. When I test it out it only lets the comments go through when I enter the code correctly, but somehow the bots have it mastered. Is there something obvious I did wrong, http://photoblog.hypexr.org/ ?

This AJAX solution sounds great.

I will keep my eyes open.

PS. I still can not find that post about how to turn off comments.

It seems that I have a magical spam problem now.....

I commented out the sql_save line and I removed the add comments link in my template, but I am still getting spam messages. Not as many, but about 5 today on the front page post. Any ideas for this one? Tnx

I don't understand, why do some blogs get insane spam and others get none? I have had no issues with spam from the start. Can someone explain this?
