WP Blacklist Comment SPAM Filteration

  • I wrote a little script to fight comment SPAM much along the lines of Jay Allen’s MTBlacklist filter (but for WordPress). This really simple script is compatible with all versions of WordPress and uses a powerful master blacklist from Reflective Reality. I would really like to get some people to try and install it and see how well it works. So if you are using WordPress and have been receiving some SPAM in your comments, please help me in testing this script. WordPress 1.0+ will even allow you to view the SPAM comments without them ever being displayed on your blog (using moderation) which would mean that if you do receive SPAM and the filter catches it, you will know that the script is working. Here is a link to WPBlacklist.
    PS: Compatible with all versions of WordPress

  • This is not my e-mail address, not my post, but a fellow blogger posted this. I don’t know if this was a problem with WP or just MT, but I believe you used entries from MT Blacklist. I’m hoping you can fix something so that she can post on blogs. I use your blacklist plugin, and therefore am concerned. I’d like her to be able to post on my site!

    Me?? Blacklisted??
    ?— Bloggy Stuff?—
    I tried commenting on a few blogs today and encountered this little nugget:

    Action Denied: Blacklisted Item Found
    [email protected]

    I guess it doesna€?t like my email address, although, my email is lil.miss.sassafras [at] gmail [dot] com.

    What to do?

    Possible enhancement for WP Blacklist – I am getting about 15% of comments being flagged to moderate by Blacklist, but the comments seem fine. To test I even went so far as to delete the blacklist data from the database and only import the regex commands. Same thing.

    Is it possible to write a log for each comment that is flagged to indicate what rule/word caused the flagging?
