coldforged.org » Killing Referral Spam

This one is great, gives good explanation of the lines in the .htaccess file AND he links to a script that works with WP to AUTOMATE the entry of new spammers into the .htaccess file: coldforged.org » Killing Referral Spam

  1. Glad you found it useful!

    Note that if you don’t use the 403.shtml as I do, you’ll need to modify the script slightly as it keys off that condition to know where to insert new rules (if you need assistance choosing a new condition to key off, just let me know). Aside from that, you should be good to go!

  2. Ah, good point! I’ll definitely will need to adjust the script then (or call for your help ;-). I might actually also implement the 403.shtml as I sometimes do fear that a few legitimate surfers are denied entry to my domain. Thanks for the offer!
