In reply to: Change roles and capabilitiesBy the way. I just realized that after upgrading previous lower-level users can edit posts and comments in cases where it was previously not possible (author was a higher-level user).
I was not happy with the old system, but unhappy with the new one too. How can I fix all this? No plugins?

In reply to: Comments Off, wp-comments-post renamed, Still Spam!You need to turn off trackbacks also, because that’s what most spam comments really are.
If you want to have these features on, however, you’ll need to install the spam plugins.
PS: I’m suffering a major spam attack (hundreds of comments every couple of hours) and it all stopped with Bad Behavior.

In reply to: Spam? Read this.Some powerfull spam bot was set up a couple of days ago. Seems that I’m not the only one getting hundreds of spam comments or trackbacks every day. Wouldn’t it be fair to send the police to look for this criminal spammer/s?
Is there a way to help catch them? I’ve got plenty of logs and stored information about this spammer. It’s all the same: drugs, hotels, etc. All spam comments look the same.

In reply to: Spam? Read this.Hello, I still need help.
1. Spam Karma allows comments that are not labelled as spam to be published unmoderated. This is NOT what I’m looking for. What options do I have?
2. I need a program that prevents spam from being posted, not just a filter. If not possible, I need to disable the 15-second rule. A great number of legitimate commentators are prevented from posting in my blog for this 15-second thing.

In reply to: HELP: massive spam attackI tried SpamKarma and it works very well as I spam filter, but it turns off moderation for legitimate comments. This is NOT what I was looking for. Can I have SpamKarma work without turning off moderation??

In reply to: HELP: massive spam attackI’m using WP 1.5.1.3. Can I install Akismet there?
Will that solve the problem or just filter the comments?Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Search comments (not only posts)I copied search-everything.php into my plugins directory. I can see it in the plugins section and activate it. Then when going to “Options” I see this:
What’s wrong?Warning: sev_option_page(/home//public_html/wp-content/themes/connections/searchform.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home//public_html/wp-content/plugins/search_everything2.php on line 224

In reply to: Upgrade from 1.5.1.3 to 1.5.2. QuestionWhat could go wrong? I just don’t see why I should delete all the files that I’m not going to modify.

In reply to: Comments visible while in moderation queueThanks, LesBessant. I wasn’t refering to a person seeing his/her own message.
My point is precisely that your “Other visitors won’t see the comments.” is not always true. That’s the whole point!!

In reply to: Something wrong with Connections themeTechGnome, the problem is with any blog that uses the Connections theme (I’ve seen more than a dozen). Take the author’s site, for instance:
https://vanillamist.com/blog/?p=89
The screen shot shows you what the problem with some browsers will be. For obvious reasons, I cannot give you a link that will show you the problem “live” if your browser is OK.

In reply to: Something wrong with Connections themeSorry about that, I did it with the last blog because I thought that the owner might not be happy to have a link over here (I wouldn’t want mine to show up on top of google searches, which is not that difficult due to the pagerank of this forum). The other links take you to the author of Connections website.

In reply to: Comments visible while in moderation queueHmmm, I’m not sure. I’ve never seen comments that are pending moderation.
Forum: Installing WordPress
In reply to: Comments visible while in moderation queueCan you elaborate? Are they visible to administrators who are logged in? Is that what you mean? I never realized that this was the case.

In reply to: Database connection ERROR messagepodz, thanks.
I’m sorry to say that I’m using the featured host on top of the list of hosts recommended by www.remarpro.com
That is, bluehost.com
Is that one not supposed to be the best host?
