No public Twitter messages.Movable Type Trackback Spam
Today (not only today I think), I received quite numbers of trackback spams. I think this is one of the problems bloggers’ (and weblog developers) have to deal with. Matt has wrote about this issue, related to WordPress. Ikhlasul Amal also pointed this issue when I had conversation with him.
About the comment spam, MT-Blacklist works great in dealing the comment spams. And the additional field I put here also works fine (I think). If you were using Movable Type, there is an interesting article about Secret Tag Implementation for Movable Type.
Now, about the trackback spams, I close my weblog comment and trackbacks for entries older than 10 days. Before, I only close comments on old entries. And, I temporary remove my .mt-tb.cgi (sorry, no trackbacks right now)
Well, read also what Elise wrote about trackback spam issue if you’re interested in this matter. You will find some nice resources there.
Cut! Another topic please…
Right now, I am quite busy. Together with my friends, I am preparing an event. I hope everything will be just fine. It will be in next April.
I also working on some sheets to translate. Fiewh! It is interesting, but in the same time, it is tiring. I hope I can finish that right on time.
Have a super day all! Ciao!
Update Feb 10:
I am playing around (again and again… huhuhuh) with the templates. And I haven’t finished all pages.
got it only in comment pages, upgraded to pmachine pro v2.4, pm black and whitelist, search for comments, etc…lumayan…but the spammers are now only hitting my referer page, want to get higher rank on google, added rel=”nofollow” in the url tag, but its still annoying grrrrr :@
anyway, have a good day :)
Well, I got number of trackback spams here. I hope there willl be the best solution for this problem.
Yap, another problem: spam referer. I got tons of that too!
last decision: adding something on htaccess page to deny spam referer hehe :D i don’t get spam referer now *maybe not yet :P*
FYI: layoutnya baru, bagus….tp kalo di scrolling keatas kebawah leleth, kenapa ya? apa mungkin browser aku yah yang error? :/
wah layoutnya bagus tomz.. tumben pake gambar cewek bukan mbek :P
wes.. jian kurang gawean tenan ki sing nye-pam! penake goleki wae yo uwonge, trus di antemi bareng-bareng :P
Kenapa ya kalo buka site ini firefox nya jadi terasa heavy…? (kalo lagi scroll up scroll down) Apakah komputer gua yang bermasalah dan tidak cukup canggih untuk buka warnadunia.net… hehe
I decided to talk much about spam issue (mostly limited to my experiences) in Warnadunia Forum, http://warnadunia.org. This is long story forum around blogging in Indonesia that I participated since the beginning of my journey into blog world.
