    Hi there,
    I have a pinging issue. I have installed cbnet Ping Optimizer to help manage the ping spamming.
    This did not help.

    I removed the URI from the update settings
    This has not helped.

    I have deactivated cbnet
    and still i have getting 25 - 30 moderates a day after every revision or new post.

    Please advise. thanks

    Use the settings at:

    Admin Dashboard>Settings>Discussion>Comment Moderation>Set to 1

    and then:

    Admin Dashboard>Settings>Discussion>Comment Blacklist> and add:

    http
    ftp
    www
    url

    and maybe

    bad word 1
    bad word 2
    etc.

    Make sure to save settings.

    This will mark the majority of comment spam as spam. Simply add text above your comment box that states any comments with links or profanity shall be marked as spam. If a human misses this point, oh well. Empty spam occasionally.
