Spam solution in comments

[en]Today I revisited my website since I don’t know when, probably since February 2010, or even January 2010(I have been really busy with other stuff!) and found out that I have 176 comments which waited for me to be moderated, by default I think it was set up to be moderated by admin in the first place, can’t recall if I did it or WordPress comes that way which is more likely. So I gave it a try and right on the first page I discovered that almost all of them were spam posts, maybe couple of them were from readers appreciating my posts and asking for suggestion/advises.

BreezingForms

Today I decided that I need to learn how to make custom forms in Joomla. Long before this day I searched and found BreezingForms written by Markus Bopp at http://www.crosstec.de
Even though right now it is commercial, until version 1.6.0(version 1.5.9 I guess the most popular) it was under GPL license and still can be downloaded from his website, however I had hard time finding direct link, so google’s “site:crosstec.de 1.5.9 Stable” search helped me very much))). It seems easy to understand and construct your own form in Easy Mode after watching series of videos posted by Markus Bopp himself about “How to use BreezingForms” in EasyMode in version 1.5.9 Stable.

mLanguage…

Whole last night I was thinking how to make my webblog in multilanguage. So today after searching for plugin in WordPress.org I finally found this wonderful plugin called “mLanguage” written by Alexander Rauscha. It took me around half an hour to find out how it works properly. Don’t get me wrong, it’s very easy to understand and use plugin, it could have taken 15 minutes if I didn’t misinterpret statement

You have only to write post, tagging each language:

eg. [ de ]Deutsch[ /de ] [ en ]English[ /en ]

which I understood as adding new tags to “post tags” that was WRONG. The only drawback I found so far is that Title of the post will always be in default language in my case it’s English but it’s no big deal. So from now on I will try to post my blog in 2 language: English and Russian))).

Also made I small discovery for myself is when searching for plugin in WordPress.org it’s better to sort by “Most Popular” instead of default “Relevance”. Just a quick reminder for me in future!!!
