Requests for Anti-Spam Features

Thanks for the reply Nick. WP-SpamFree, another Wordpress anti-bot plugin is an improved version of Bad Behavior. [...]

After some reasearch the BB author has some objections.

Thanks for the reference. I think the author's comments are well worth considering. My own experiences with WP-SpamFree are very positive but, as the BB author notes, there are issues worth considering. I believe either approach is worthwhile. and in my case somewhat necessary, since my site is a frequent target for bot attacks.

I would vote for a Bad-Behavior plugin, not a WP-SpamFree.
I haven't done any plugin for Hotaru yet. It is doomed to happen sooner or later, but it can't happen now.

Either with probably be adequate. My site has lots of traffic including bot traffic. Both plugins were more than adequate with WP-SpamFree doing a slightly better job - with the provisos as noted in your reference.

Is it possible that you add and create 'Spam Trigger' plugin for hotaru like plugin used by Pligg:

Spam Trigger - Anti-Spam and Profanity Filter
http://forums.pligg.com/free-modules...ty-filter.html

- which works in way that you have text file in which you enter list of spammy words, and when someone submits bookmark that contain any of words meantioned in that text file - that bookmarks either gets deleted or get some status and goes first to reviewing - so it doesn't show on home page instantly...

Hi, currently i am using pligg cms, but due to heavy spamming i am in fear about my google adsense. There is a spam trigger, but this spam trigger only can block english language sites. When an user submit casinos and gambling content from other languages then spam trigger can not find out it. So everyday i am getting a lots of spam submission and google is giving me warning continuously.

I thinks it is possible to check spam if i can block other language sites except English.

Is there any way to block all the languages except English? Then i will sure use hotarucms for my bookmarking site.

Hope i will get a solution. I have also posted a thread in pligg forum, you can check it below:

The spam posts you getting are human spam or bot spam?

In Hotaru you can easy do some code manipulation to manually set an array with any words you want banned, independing on the laguage.
