    with this option enabled i had “error establishing database connection” if i digit the site’s URL without www

    i found a solution adding to .htaccess this code:

    RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^example.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://www.example.com/$1 [R=301,L]

    but, as i don’t know if this is a good thing, i deleted this code then and disabled the spambot blocking option

    Hi crashtest can you carry out the following test. Disable all your plugins except this plugin. Enable Block Spambots From Posting Comments:again. Do you still get an error? If you don’t then you know that it was one of the plugins you disabled that is causing the conflict.

    If you still receive the error, can you change your theme to a WordPress default theme like Twenty Thirteen?

    Thank you

    hi,

    i’d like to help you but i’m just coming out from a disaster in that site (site’s folder completely lost because of an error in domain configuration…).

    Site is online again now after some days it was closed and in maintenance, so i can’t now close it again to do those test.

    A question: having Akismet up and running, do you think i need also to enable that option in your plugin?
