 * This seems to violate the WordPress plugin guidelines. [https://wordpress.org/plugins/about/guidelines/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/about/guidelines/)
 * No “phoning home” without user’s informed consent. This seemingly simple rule
   actually covers several different aspects:
 *  No unauthorized collection of user data. For example, sending the admin’s email
   address back to your own servers without permission of the user is not allowed;
   but asking the user for an email address and collecting if they choose to submit
   it is fine. All actions taken in this respect MUST be of the user’s doing, **
   not automatically done by the plugin**.

 * I think this email function should be turned off by default on upgrade, or limited
   to X number per day/hour. I woke up to 100’s of failed login emails.

 * Yes – seeing some movement now. Thank you! Is this a permanent “fix” or do I 
   just have to be patient in the future?

 * I’ll have to chime in on this one, I’ve been waiting to see if the auto update
   would run from 3.7.1 to 3.8 but it just won’t go. I have the plugin set to update
   everything. (Major versions).
 * I have it installed on many blogs using 3 different hosts, and not a single one
   of them has updated to 3.8 automatically.

 * I did this fix, and it solved the warnings, but now I don’t see any titles on
   wp-admin/admin.php?page=simple-sidebars , the ID shows, but no Name or Description,
   they DO show up on the edit page. Everything else about the sidebars appears 
   to be working as it should as far as I can tell. (php 5.4.20, Apache 2.4.6)

 * Yes, I found the same – large influx of spam comments all of a sudden.
 * I removed all other spam plugins since GASP was doing great, but now I am having
   go back and re-install Akismet.
 * I don’t know if GASP just stopped working,or the spammers found a way around 
   it…

 * Thanks. I didn’t see a ticket either, but I thought I’d come to the forums first
   to see if it was me or not. I even tried it in the latest beta, and the problem
   was still there.
 * Thanks for the help.

   is now linking to the media file correctly.

 * Maybe redirecting based on user agent… for googlebot its showing one thing to
   everyone else and Securi it shows another.
