Comment Spam, The back to work feeling.
Posted by mccrory on 20 Jul 2007 | Tagged as: general
I have a rather unpleasant task ahead of me over the next few days.
Its just hit me that for quite a while I have had all the comments to this Blog in a state of limbo.
It all started with a sudden upswing of comment spam hitting first this site and then my inbox.
As a stopgap measure I temporarily put all of the comments in moderation.
Now I have to moderate.
A feeling akin to waking up on a Monday morning, thinking it was Sunday.
Theres currently 5500 comments sitting there.
Let the games begin.
‘Oneclick’ the Wordpress Pluggers plugin.

Wordpress is great.
If I did’nt actually have to work I’d probably could pass away weeks just trying out new themes and plugins. Need a plugin for Wordpress, no problem Google it and usually theres something out there that will at the very least resemble what your looking for.
If you dont find it even better, that means that no one has thought of it yet! Either way if you use plugins for Wordpress you will need to upload them.
This is where ‘Oneclick’ , the Wordpress upload plugin comes in.
A whole bunch O’ time is saved by dropping the need for an FTP client to interface with Wordpress.
Site management can virtually be done from within the Wordpress interface itself.
In effect, this may be the last plugin you need to upload via FTP.
You just choose a zip file on your machine and Oneclick will upload it directly to your plugins or themes directory.
All thats left is to activate it.
To remove a plugin you just choose to delete it.
All of this can be done from inside Wordpress Admin.
Excellent no?
You can get the Oneclick plugin for Wordpress here.
