Hi, I run a wordpress article directory where registered authors can submit their articles free. This is instant approval directory but spammers are working to down my site. They submit SPAM articles related to drug, viagara, porn and many similar words. Is there any plugin which help me to fight against spamming words, I means authors who submit articles with spam words, my site not accept the submission. or if you have any idea regarding this, please share. Thank you
akismet will be best for your requirement. This wordpress plugin will protect you against spam comments and words. This plugin is Free and easy to install in wordpress. Thanks
Firstly have akismet installed as a preventive measure. In addition search for wordpress CAPTCHA plugin and enable captcha before submission, this will reduce the spam anyways. regards Josh
No answer yet here: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/wp-plugin-that-flags-spam-posts-rather-than-comments but a good resource. Another one without an answer: http://wordpress.org/support/topic/suffering-from-really-bad-user-spam I agree with the poster above. Most of these spammers are not manuually registering and require a standardized captcha for their bots to enter. Try some advanced registration protection: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/sabre/
