The Lost Blogger

I’m sure this happens to you.  You placed a great blog post and you are receiving comments, but buried deep in your SPAM folder are valid comments that you didn’t find until it was too late to respond.

Well, now you have the option to white list your friends, business associates and people you trust so their comments no longer end up in the SPAM heap.  The plugin is called Comment White List and is available for download right through the WordPress depository.  Anyone who’s on the white list is automatically approved.

Installation:

  1. Upload the plugin directory to your “plugins”, or “mu-plugins”, directory.
  2. Activate the plugin, if you’ve installed it in the “mu-plugins” it’s not necessary.
  3. Now go to Settings->Discussion and put your whitelist mail accounts. You have the option to whitelist a user from the Edit Comments section.
  4. This system works automatically, so there is no need to intervene.

If you would like to read more about the plugin, it can be found here, however this site is in Spanish.

Have a comment you would like to share?  Feel free – hopefully I won’t find you in my SPAM folder!
