Now Working – ReCaptcha Against Comment Spam
Finally, I got the plugin WP-ReCaptcha working (there was a missing code line in my comments.php).
You can see the new tool when you’re commenting, underneath the comments field. Before your comment appears on my blog, you will need to type in two words as shown by the captcha.
I’m sorry for the little extra typing effort, but lately I got quite a few more spam comments than usual and it was getting on my nerves to always log into my blog to just deal with all these spams. The plugin shall now take care of (most of) it. I’ll see.
Also, this ReCaptcha sounds quite promising in fighting spam but also in doing something very helpful and clever: It helps digitising books and old newspapers. Read more about it.
