Spam comments are most irritating for bloggers. Reading the all comments and their content and desire. If Comment author URL is bigger then you should consider that comment as Spam comment for sure. Many times I observed, spammer always try to add their site URL in Author URL.

comment Author URL is bigger in WordPress

Using following code you can protect your site from spam commenters. Open your functions.php file from your theme folder and just copy/paste the following code into that.

Following code will automatically mark the comments as spam where author URL is longer than 60 chars.

function wpapi_bigger_url_spamcheck( $approved , $commentdata ) {
return ( strlen( $commentdata['comment_author_url'] ) > 60 ) ? 'spam' : $approved;
}

add_filter( 'pre_comment_approved', 'wpapi_bigger_url_spamcheck', 99, 2 );

Above code is very important for wordpress bloggers. Every wordpress blogger should add the above code into their site.

Description: This software is excellent! This is what I had in mind when I set out to find desktop blogging software for wordpress. The usability is excellent. Initially, I expected some type of configuration wizard or walk-through. Instead, what I received was a panel that had the steps with links on how to set up my blog for Zoundry lovin’. I believe it worked better than a walk-through could have, since it taught me the way to set up another blog if I needed it. This app got out of my way and let me do what I set out to do. Zoundry was definitely built by a programmer with excellent usability experience.

Advantages:

  • Automatic blog-type discovery (just provide the URL!)
  • Easy to set up accounts
  • Imports your blog posts
  • Getting started tab guides you through blog set up
  • HTML validator built into the code view (big plus)
  • WYSIWYG features still usable in code view
  • Includes a publish menu to finalize your decisions, tags, trackbacks, etc.

WBloggar
(Free for Download)

Summary: W.Bloggar is great… I almost want to stop testing. This tool is extremely good at what it does. It does everything I was looking for, and has no extra useless features. Pinging Technorati (and other ping services) is a nice plus, something Zoundry also did. This one edges out Zoundry with it’s clean and intuitive interface.

Advantages:

  • The software seems extremely well put together
  • Walk-through on intro
  • Clean interface
