Help Wanted!

This will be short and sweet. I just installed a new spam filter on the back end of our WordPress blog. It’s supposedly filtering through all the crazy spam comments we’ve been getting, but now I’m doubting it’s ability to successfully filter ONLY the bad spam comments.

Anyone mind leaving us a comment on this post (link at the bottom) so I can make sure it works right?

Gracias (in advance)!  🙂

I had to do that as well. I was literally getting thousands a day. Cheap Louis Vutton, I love your template, what do you use? Etc. Etc. Etc. Spam filter installed and life is much more sweet 🙂

Thanks Kelley! Glad to see the plugin is blocking only crap. I was getting sick of Ugg Boots spam myself! 😉

I had to do the same and have been using Akismet. Seems to be doing the trick! I considered requiring a captcha type plugin for all comments but that seemed like it would be a hassle for anyone who wants to comment.

I agree, you’re theme is great! I had no idea it was a WordPress site. Looks amazing!

Enjoyed your web site. Great photography and videos. Keep up the good work and remember it is therapy. Just sold my boat and it was moved to Port Charlotte
Gasparilla Marina I believe. S/V BONHEUR is a 37 ft Hunter Cherubini. I have found a 1984 Endeavour 38 rear cockpit and was researching the tankage problems when I came across your adventure. Have a great time.

Thanks Joseph! Congrats on the new Endeavour! Luckily, our fuel tank had been replaced before we purchased our boat, but the water tank replacement went fairly smoothly. Good luck to you! 🙂 -Kim
