Fighting the filthy spammers one blog at a time

As SR Noted in the post below there's a thingy (highly technical computer term) that can be added to your Templates to help fight spam.

Add the following line:

<MTCloseComments old="7" inactive="3">

Just before the </MTEntryIfCommentsOpen> line will close any posts that are seven days old and have been inactive for more than three days. For more information see this post.

1 Phin,

Did this work for you? I tried and it did not prevent comments.

Thanks,

SR

2 Yep, but the post has to be off your index page.

3 What if I don't have on my index?

Posted by: Sacramento Republicrat @ at June 29, 2006 03:35 AM

4 Sorry... /MTEntryIfCommentsOpen

5 You should be able to add it just about anywhere.

I'll check your site in the morning not working I'll take a look at it.

7 That's it! Thanks for linking to the older post Phin! That's the one I was referring to, of course, when I left the comment for Steve.

I finally copied and pasted the info into a doc that I keep on my computer so that I can refer to it when I need it. I bookmarked the link but forgot which of my many bookmark folders I stuck it in. So, I ended up looking for it several times and it always took me a while to find it - I figured it was easier to just keep a copy I could find rather than lose the bookmark and have to search each time. *grin*.

8 Seems to be working for me. Here's another spam question. How is "questionable content" determined? If I understand the blacklist, it is a list of banned URLs. I want to understand how the content of a comment is analyzed and what is causing some to be rejected.

9 Will the same line work with trackbacks to "older" posts such as: " MTClosePings old="15" inactive="10" with the carrot marks?

If so, after what line does it go?

Posted by: GM Roper @ at June 29, 2006 05:04 PM

10 Steve - The blacklist isn't just banned URLs, it's banned anything. So the word "phentermine" is banned, for example, no matter where it appears in a comment.

11 One can, I presume, set those dates a little further back. I just got an excellent comment, from one of my occasional visitors, to a previously inactive 8 day old post.

Duh! Just figured out to set it for the same duration I set MTleaveitonthepage.

12 I noticed that I'm still getting email messages that a comment from a spammer has been made, but when I go to "MOST" of the posts, the comment is not there. I go ahead and click off on accepting comments and trackbacks on the older ones anyway and the ones that do get through I delete... but, is this normal?
