I'm tired of seeing this best finance blog spam every day on my Akismet. My other plug-in, AntiSpam Bee has blocked other hundreds of automated spam comments except this stupid blog. Makes me want to nuke his/her site Is there a way in htaccess or plug-in to remove spam IF the URL is *specific .com*? I've googled and tried the URL referrer check, it's different than what I want
You have missed a very basic option you can access here: wp-admin/options-discussion.php Just put his URL there and you should be fine.
lol didn't know about that option! Yes, pretty basic indeed. BUT! "Comment Blacklist- When a comment contains any of these words in its content, name, URL, e-mail, or IP, it will be marked as spam" It will do the same thing, i.e marking it as a spam? In the end, I still have to check the spam folder/menu every now and then to make sure they really are spam (among other spam comments). I just want to block them altogether so I don't have to "waste time" checking + emptying my spam folder every day
This is a good way to do that, visit this link: http://vietcoding.com/chong-spam-comment-wordpress/ This is Vietnamese language, use Google Translate.
