    Hi Don't worry just go in your WP setting and disable the comment option.

    After that nobody will spam you.

    Hope you got it.

    Thanks

    yeah, i have been putting it off for some time, because it means doing it 20 times over hehehe

    note to mod - why the infraction for wrong category, do you suggest a better category? i actually spent 5 minutes looking for the right place to post this thread, then i get an infraction and its not even moved to the "correct" category.

    Guidence please
