PrePublish Comment Moderator<\/strong> protects your WordPress site by analyzing every new comment before<\/em> it is published. Each comment receives a toxicity\/spam score from 0 to 100<\/strong>, and the plugin automatically approves, holds, or marks it as spam based on thresholds you control.<\/p>\n\n No more drowning in spam. No more toxic comments slipping through. Set it up in minutes and let AI (or a free offline filter) do the heavy lifting.<\/p>\n\n The settings screen includes built-in setup instructions<\/strong> for every provider, with direct links to API consoles.<\/p>\n\n When you use an AI provider<\/strong> (OpenAI, Gemini, Groq, or Perspective), comment text is sent to that provider\u2019s API for analysis. The Local Filter<\/strong> runs entirely on your server and does not send data externally.<\/p>\n\n You are responsible for complying with your provider\u2019s terms of service and your site\u2019s privacy policy. API keys are stored encrypted using WordPress salts.<\/p>\n\n See the External services<\/strong> section below for details on each third-party service.<\/p>\n\n This plugin connects to third-party AI services only when you select a cloud provider<\/strong> and enter an API key. The Local Filter runs entirely on your server and does not contact external services.<\/p>\n\n For each provider below: what<\/strong> it is, what data<\/strong> is sent, when<\/strong>, and links to terms<\/strong> and privacy policy<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n Used for AI-powered toxicity\/spam scoring when you select Groq as the provider.<\/p>\n\n Data sent:<\/strong> The plain text of each new comment submitted on the frontend, plus a short moderation prompt (no visitor IP or email is sent by this plugin).\nWhen:<\/strong> Only at comment submission time, and only when Groq is the active provider.\nService:<\/strong> Groq, Inc. \u2014 Terms of Use<\/a>, Privacy Policy<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n Used for AI-powered toxicity\/spam scoring when you select OpenAI as the provider.<\/p>\n\n Data sent:<\/strong> The plain text of each new comment submitted on the frontend, plus a short moderation prompt.\nWhen:<\/strong> Only at comment submission time, and only when OpenAI is the active provider.\nService:<\/strong> OpenAI \u2014 Terms of Use<\/a>, Privacy Policy<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n Used for AI-powered toxicity\/spam scoring when you select Google Gemini as the provider.<\/p>\n\n Data sent:<\/strong> The plain text of each new comment submitted on the frontend, plus a short moderation prompt. Your API key is sent as part of the request URL to Google\u2019s API endpoint.\nWhen:<\/strong> Only at comment submission time, and only when Gemini is the active provider.\nService:<\/strong> Google \u2014 Gemini API Terms<\/a>, Privacy Policy<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n Used for dedicated toxicity scoring when you select Perspective API as the provider.<\/p>\n\n Data sent:<\/strong> The plain text of each new comment submitted on the frontend.\nWhen:<\/strong> Only at comment submission time, and only when Perspective is the active provider.\nService:<\/strong> Google Jigsaw \/ Perspective API \u2014 governed by Google APIs Terms of Service<\/a> and Google Privacy Policy<\/a>. See also the Perspective API FAQ<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n You can switch to Groq, OpenAI, Gemini, or Perspective at any time by selecting a provider and pasting your API key. Follow the on-screen setup guide for each service.<\/p>\n\n\n No. The Local Filter<\/strong> works without any API key and is enabled by default. For smarter detection (context, sarcasm, nuanced toxicity), use Groq (free tier) or OpenAI.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. The plugin is built for Greek<\/strong>, English<\/strong>, and Greeklish<\/strong>. The Local Filter includes 300+ terms with accent normalization and common bypass patterns. AI providers (OpenAI, Groq, Gemini) also handle Greek well when configured.<\/p><\/dd>\n The comment is placed on hold<\/strong> for manual review. It will not be auto-approved. The plugin retries automatically in the background (~2.5 minutes, up to 3 times), or you can click Retry AI<\/strong> in the Comments admin list.<\/p><\/dd>\n Comment analysis runs only when someone submits a comment \u2014 not on every page view. API calls use a 15-second timeout. The Local Filter runs instantly on your server.<\/p><\/dd>\n Yes. All frontend comment submissions are moderated, including from registered users (except in wp-admin).<\/p><\/dd>\n API keys are encrypted with OpenSSL using WordPress authentication salts before being saved in your database.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\nWhy use this plugin?<\/h4>\n\n
