 * The best you can do is to create a mutual subdomain for domain1.com and domain2.
   com so that you will have the exactly same content at either website.

 * Answer to Question 2
 * No. If you have two separate computers for WP and database, then database address
   won’t be ‘localhost.’
 * We are Mac people and give you kind suggestions. If you want, we can give you
   names for Mac-friendly web hosting companies.
 * 1. You don’t want to host a WordPress website or anything on your own terminal.
   You would have to install phpAdmin, MySQL, PHP… It will be better if you just
   sign up for a shared web hosting plan. Or maybe have your WP website hosted at
   wordpress.com?
 * 2. Telus is not a web hosting company. They will probably give you some web space
   at their website. They are unlikely to allow you to install your own PHP scripts.

   of Brea, California, USA. How coincident…

 * 1. Some webmasters hire spammers to advertise their websites and products. (Example:
   ArtSystem of Malaysia)
    2. Some webmasters are affiliates and use proxy servers
   to circulate spam posts and advertise their own websites. (Example: Many junk
   pharmacy websites run by Russians including the one at us-ds.com) 3. There are
   spammers who circulate junk posts to send Internet users to exploited, redirection
   websites or malicious websites with malware/HTTP protocol vulnerability attack/
   computer viruses. Latest examples of exploited websites are those of FortuneCity(
   fortunecity.com), National Clearinghouse on Academic Worklife (academicworklife.
   org), LiveVideo.com (livevideo.com). 4. Some domain registrars may be spammers
   themselves and/or are affiliated with them and circulate spam posts for various
   reasons. (Example: Moniker Online Services)

 * I would define what you call the navigation bar at first before posting a negative
   comment about the popular blog software package. I would also open and edit style.
   css inside a theme folder or run search, depending on what you mean by the navigation
   bar.

 * You may want to remove the line for the character set in the wp-config file and
   see what happens. Otto42 or some other moderator explained at least once before
   how to let WP read two-byte characters.

 * Then you can. You can just write a simple PHP script for the table titled wp_comments
   where
 * – You make an SQL query for comment_author_email or comment_author_IP for the
   last post.
    – If there is a match, update comment_approved with value = 1.
 * I won’t write an entire script. But it shouldn’t be difficult. And I’m not a 
   PHP expert.

 * >No they are not common.
 * You mean they use different IP addresses for similar spam posts?
 * >Have you not come across them when visiting WordPress sites?
 * No. Our spam database captures more than 600 spam posts a day. But I don’t remember
   seeing that sort of posts recently. What is your character set, anyway? Is it
   UTF-8?

 * Do they use a common IP address to post those spam comments? If not, then one
   of a few choices you have is to go after spam sponsors.

 * Another cause could be a long article title or one with a long word in it, depending
   on how your theme is designed.
 * A common cause is a wider graphic image than the width of the body. But you don’t
   seem to have such images.
