    Hi,

    Are you guys considering adding more moderation options to combat spam. Things like block all posts with 1 or more links, un-publish spam posts and more.

    Thanks,

    I know atm that you can set the option to send all posts for moderation but when you have a lot of posts this can become time consuming and difficult. So some more moderation options would be sooo helpful! Is there any good help on post moderation out there?

    Glad to help:

    1) “Are you guys considering adding more moderation options to combat spam.”

    Currently the form provides a challenge question and Google reCaptcha, which are very effective at stopping spam. There are numerous other “behind-the-scenes” techniques as well. Also you can set all submitted posts to “Pending” or “Draft” status, so can verify before publish, etc.

    2) “Is there any good help on post moderation out there?”

    Not sure, what exactly are you looking for?

    Thanks for the reply.

    I was looking for something like Akismet but for wordpress posts not comments. Something that will block or unpublish posts that are spammy. I know we can set all submitted posts to “Pending” or “Draft” status, so that we can verify before publish, but this can be time consuming when there are too many posts.

    So I was looking for an option within the User submitted posts plugin that can block all posts with 1+ link, etc..

    Okay thanks. What you describe is not a feature of the free version of USP. The pro version includes some more functionality, but the forum rules prohibit any discussion of pro/premium plugins. So if you have any questions about USP Pro, please reach us via the contact form at Plugin Planet. Otherwise for any further questions or feedback about the free version, they are welcome here in the forums. Thank you.
