Hey !
I have experienced some spam problems using the build-a-blog tutorial (see here) and I was wondering if you could explain me how to solve this problem ?

Thanks (and sorry for my english, I'm french.)

This has been asked a few times.

Pour l'instant il n'y a pas de solutions vraiment 'sûr' au problème du spam... Il y a un script JavaScript qui aide un peu, mais les spambots sont de plus en plus intelligents et ils trouvent des façons de mettre leurs messages quand-même.

Une autre façon de faire, c'est de mettre un captcha mais c'est pas toujours la meilleure solution (les captchas ne sont pas accessibles à ceux qui utilisent des "screen readers", par exemple).

@LillyCat : Yeah, sorry about that. I searched the forums however, just didn't find the thread you're pointing me to. I guess I'll try that, though. Thanks !

@Amélie : Thanks ! I think I'll avoid the captcha because it will probably prevent my friends from leaving comments ... The more complicated it is, the less comments ^^ I will use the scrit however ! Thanks again ! (And your french is still excellent, congratulations !)

or just create a random text/random number produced on an image like you see in the sign up forum page or anti spam image wordpress plugin.

i created a simple one...and that stopped all of the spam. i used to get like 50+ spam and i had to remove all of them one by one. it's a pain.
