    On yourwebsite.com/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=cfc_config

    Down at the bottom there’s an example like this:

    RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !^.*[mycodehere].*$
RewriteRule ^wp-comments-post.php - [F,L]

    Does it match?

    Yes (except for wp-comments-post.php being wp-signup.php in htaccess)

    That is just weird… But. It’s an issue with one plugin, so that could be worse 😀 Tagging.

    Hmm. I wonder why it’s not working. Am I still pretty well covered if I leave it out, seeing as it’s an added bonus of the plugin and I’ve got the ANTISPAMBLOG stuff there anyway?

    You should be okay. Darcy’s method has been wonderful for me 🙂

    It seems I was not okay! Had 5 spam registrations over night. What’s my next port of call?

    Are they coming from some place you can pinpoint? All the ones I ever got were from Russia, so I blocked .ru emails… The other thought is you could moderate all new registrations. I mean, do you REALLy want a totally open for anyone network?

    I don’t know how to pinpoint them really. The email addresses are all random. The moderation thing is a last resort. I don’t understand why these plugins/methods aren’t working for me!

    Does WangGuard not work at all?

    I’ve never used it, but then again, I don’t get a lot of spam.

    The dev’s pretty good if you have any problems too.

    Sorry, the developer of the plugin.
