The new direction of Sanctuary is one I’m much happier with.\u00a0 It doesn’t have that draggy feeling the original was giving me.<\/p>\n
I went through the blog subscribers and eliminated around 70 that either showed up in the spam database, had names that looked plain spammy, or came from the .ru\/.pl domains.\u00a0 Hope I didn’t get any legitimate subscribers, but I’m trying to clean up things now that the new anti-spam plugin is catching the spam subscribers before they can clutter my database \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n
I am so loving this spam database.\u00a0 It’s like the Roach Motel for spammers.\u00a0 They check in, but they don’t check out.<\/p>\n
Not that I’m complaining about the standard plug-in that catches spam comments.\u00a0 It does a wonderful job as well, and hasn’t let a single spam comment come through.\u00a0 It just wasn’t stopping spam registrations, and this one is \ud83d\ude42\u00a0 It’s the double-whammy.<\/p>\n
When you combine that with the same spam protection on the forum, my website is now wonderfully free of spammers.\u00a0 I smile every morning when I get up and evening when I get home from work as I review the error log of banned spammers desperately trying to log in or post spam.<\/p>\n
I’m going to try to remember to start adding tags to my blog posts, in order to better index in search engines.\u00a0 That’s good for everybody, because it can lead to more feedback, which helps my motivation, which gets more stories out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
