I’ve just upgraded Quoderat to WordPress 1.5.1 and have installed the Spam Karma plugin, as recommended by Lauren Wood in a comment to my previous whining posting about comment spam. With luck, legitimate comments should now all appear immediately, while links to Online Poker should silently disappear. I’ll keep my fingers crossed.
I’ve already noticed that the default WP 1.5.1 theme is too narrow for source-code/XML listings, so the formatting on some of my older postings is messed up. I’ll work on that later. In the meantime, please let me know (somehow) if Spam Karma prevents you from leaving comments.
Hi David, you have a problem – your feed seems to be broken http://www.megginson.com/blogs/quoderat/feed/rss2/. I had this problem as well after upgrading WP 1.5.1; there’s a patch at http://mosquito.wordpress.org/view.php?id=1323
BTW, Spam Karma 2 is worth the upgrade if you haven’t done it yet.
Thanks for checking that, Lauren. I’ve applied the patch you suggested to both of my blogs, and hopefully, everything is working again.
spam karma work good
