  • On a WordPress site without Akismet installed or ever used. Site admins manually mark comments as spam during moderation.

    I know Akismet deletes spam comments after 15 days. Does WordPress core also deletes spam comments after sometime?

    If it does then is there a filter to modify that behavior?

    Thanks.

    Not automatically.

    – either do it manually or use a plugin
