Hi,
I changed the rights of comments for the guest and I'm also using a
verification email to ensure more protect from spam but I was wondering is
there a way to delete the spam on my spaces such as the photos space that did
not disappear as the main page?
Thanks

While it's true that nobody but them will see their adds, I doubt they care - usually it's "how many, how fast", and not "how many would buy" that pays. There is a "comment" permission which you can lock down though; but I was surprised to see the "attachment" permission gone. Is there a reason attachment was removed since 0.9? -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 10 September 2007 14:55 To: XWiki Users Subject: [xwiki-users] Spam attack...register new user Hi, This may not be new to some of you, but it is new to me. This summer, one of my sites saw many spam 'ad comments' on new user pages. Someone register himself/herself and leave comments on the register new user page (which I should not left open to all). I guess someone hired summer students to do this, they may want to google bomb with links on many web sites pointing to their sites. So, this 1+1= method did not stop spammers. I only show user lists to admin, so this attack did not add any value to spammers. I changed the access control, so that visitors can not welcome themselves to be a user. So, XWiki admins, you are informed. This is just my two cents.
