comment spam escalation
Posted on January 28th, 2006 by si
Despite my taxing ‘Are you a spambot?’ checkbox, a couple of spam comments have slipped through in the last week. Therefore I’m raising the bar for the spambot test below…
Once I’ve a spot of free time, I’ll upgrade to WordPress2.0 which may have satisfactory anti-spam measures. Until then, I’m relying on the simple, unique-problem approach.
I installed Akismet the other day, seems to be working quite well. btw: you dont say if you want the number three, or the word three. Quite confusing :/
Good point. I’ve made it a bit simpler and restricted it to a single character though, for some reason, it resists a resizing of the field.
