I made a post to my wordpress blog 4 days ago, and have gone back on it now and have found that it has spam posts (posts i didnt write) and these are in French. How did somebody else post posts on my wordpress blog (which i have a username/password log in) has anybody else experienced this? and how can i stop people from posting on my blog, and spamming it? (i thought i was the only one who can write/post on it)
he said that someone make posts not only comments in his blog i agree with you about akismet it is strong plugin .
Someone could have gotten hold of your password somehow... or another thing, there is an option somewhere that says new user's default position or something along those lines. The choices are members, admin, and some other ones that aren't important. There is always a chance it got changed to admin, so anyone who signs up becomes an admin on your site. (just a thought)
Change your password and run a virus scan to make sure you don't have any keyloggers on your computer. Make sure your password is hard to crack. Numbers/capital letters/characters always help.
