Anti-Spam Commenting plug-in added to LavaNet 'Ohana Blogs
There has been a minor spate of comment spam in the Blogs.An Anti-Spam Commenting plug-in has been added. If enabled for your blog, commenters will need to type in the details of a captcha to add a comment. This comes highly recommended as it prevents script kiddies from spamming the blogs.
The plugin configuration page can be found under Control Center->Anti Spam Management. You must click on 'Enable this plugin' for it to be enabled.
If you'd rather not use the plug-in, you can continue to mark comments as spam. The blogging system incorporates its own spam filtering system so a lot of spam is already blocked! Marking a comment as spam also helps 'train' the filtering system.
Feel free to drop me a line if there are any issues!
