How can I prevent nuisance comments?

Monday, 2 April 2007 11:27 AM
The IASP Engine's Blog/Social Media module has an easy to use system for controlling nuisance or unwanted comments.

There are three fields to be aware of:
  • Comment Policy
  • Comment Read Access
  • Comment Write Access
By far the simplest way to prevent any unwanted comments is to set the Comment Policy to Moderated. This will tell the system to contact you, or the original creator of the page, for approval before any comments are made publically visible.

It is important also if you are concerned about this to set your minimum Comment Post Access to Registered; this will require that comment posters are registered users of your site.
