Hello,<br><br>I am having a very hard time controlling spam on my blog. I am using a numerical access code and the blocklist stuff<br><br>Here is the configuration for blocklist in config.php:<br><br>## Attempting to block spam<br>
$EnableBlocklist = 10; <br>$EnableWhyBlocked = 1; <br>$BlocklistDownload["$SiteAdminGroup.Blocklist-PmWiki"] = array('format' => 'pmwiki'); <br>$BlocklistDownloadRefresh = 86400 * 1; <br>$BlocklistActions['comment'] = 1; <br>
<br>I made an assumption about the BlocklistDownloadRefresh rate, since it isn't explicit in the documentation how to set it for anything but once a week. I think that the above should make it download once a day, but not sure. <br>
<br>I am also using urlapprove.php, which successfully blocks the the urls from being linked, but doesn't stop the page from being saved if there are more than 5 unapproved urls. I think fixing this alone may be enough for me.<br>
<br>Does the captcha work better than the access code? Maybe I should switch to that? In general I find the captcha stuff annoying, but if I have to do it, it is better than checking my blog constantly to delete unwanted comments.<br>
<br>Any ideas would be most welcome, as this is such an annoying problem. <br><br>cheers,<br>maria<br>
