Akismet Plugin activation
Tonight also sees me activate the Akismet Plugin, Version 2.0. This involved me signing up for an account at WordPress.com, then using the API Key to activate the plugin.
I’m actually quite surprised. The only reason I’ve activated this plugin now is because tonight I had two spam comments already. And the site has only been going for 15 days – I’m amazed at how quickly they found the site.
Hopefully this plugin will get rid of these annoying comments.
And a little over two years later….
35,458 spam comments caught.
