Subject: [wp-testers] What's the point of comment moderation...
When it's not moderating anything anyway? I mean, even on 2.3 the comment
moderation wasn't working either...
I tried comment moderation on both themes, the one I'm using and the
default theme and it's still letting comments through, no matter what. I
went to Options > Discussion and chose under: Before a comment appears:
* An administrator must always approve the comment
It's the only one checked... I even put their IP address in for Comment
Moderation, whenever someone on that IP posts a comment, and it STILL lets
it go through. They went and tried this on another browser, while not
being logged in, as a total stranger.. they got an auth image, filled it
out, and was approved too... As far as I know, the only way to keep a
moderation going for my stuff...is to ban peoples IPs in the .htaccess
file.. and that's pretty lame... I mean seriously though, despite them
being approved before or not, if the option to comment moderation is
checked, it should moderate comments as expected right?
Spencer: when u went in on other browser
did you get auth image
and fill it out
blacksnday: yea
Spencer: and was approved anyway?
blacksnday: yea it is said:
THANK YOU YOUR COMMENT HAS BEEN APPROVED
