Description

Block Top Spammers displays a list of your top spammers’ IP addresses, based on all comments in your database that are marked as spam. It also generates a blacklist for your .htaccess file to block those spammers from your website entirely, thus taking load off the server. – You will need another plugin (like Akismet) to identify the spam.

PHP 5 and Apache required.

Roadmap

0.6 (April 2010)

  • edit blacklist (i.e. remove individual addresses, manually add addresses and/or subnets)
  • manually override .htaccess location
  • customize 403 error shown to blocked spammers

1.0 (May 2010)

  • Multi-Site support (WordPress 3.0, maybe WPMU 2.8/2.9)
