Those of you who have kept up with recent updates will probably have noticed your trackback/pingback spam going down. Well, recently I added a powerful trackback/pingback spam protection algorithm. So far, from all the tests and reports I’ve gotten back, it seems to be working really well. If for some reason, you do have a trackback or pingback spam get through, please let me know by submitting your spam sample, including as much info about it as possible at the WP-SpamFree Support Page. (Those of you who have been in contact with me lately know that I respond quickly to these and will often update the plugin in less than 24 hours.)

Recent updates include:

Also, I want to thank all of you for your support, feedback, and encouragement with this project. You have been awesome, and I’ll continue to work hard to make this a great spam-fighting tool for you all. :)

    Thanks for the plugin – I look forward to seeing the results (or lack thereof). One thing, does it require that Akismet be activated? Thanks again.

    @Steven: You’re welcome! Nope, it doesn’t require anything other than activating WP-SpamFree. You’re welcome to use Akismet in conjunction with WP-SpamFree if you like, but it’s not necessary.

    Great plugin! I’ve installed it one hour ago and it has already blocked a lot of spam. Also added one of your small “spam free” buttons :-)
    One simple question: can I see the blocked spam anywhere? Thanks
