Spam is a nuisance, and you know it. Happilly, WordPress users have Akismet, which help a lot to fight spam. But what about protecting your blog even more? This recipe might help.

Paste the following code in your functions.php. Comment that contain any of the words contained within the $bad_comment_content array will be automatically rejected.

 function in_comment_post_like($string, $array) {  	foreach($array as $ref) { if(strstr($string, $ref)) { return true; } }  	return false; } function drop_bad_comments() { 	if (!empty($_POST['comment'])) { 		$post_comment_content = $_POST['comment']; 		$lower_case_comment = strtolower($_POST['comment']); 		$bad_comment_content = array( 			'viagra',  			'hydrocodone', 			'hair loss', 			'[url=http',  			'[link=http',  			'xanax', 			'tramadol', 			'russian girls', 			'russian brides', 			'lorazepam', 			'adderall', 			'dexadrine', 			'no prescription', 			'oxycontin', 			'without a prescription', 			'sex pics', 			'family incest', 			'online casinos', 			'online dating', 			'cialis', 			'best forex', 			'amoxicillin' 		); 		if (in_comment_post_like($lower_case_comment, $bad_comment_content)) { 			$comment_box_text = wordwrap(trim($post_comment_content), 80, "n  ", true); 			$txtdrop = fopen('/var/log/httpd/wp_post-logger/nullamatix.com-text-area_dropped.txt', 'a'); 			fwrite($txtdrop, "  --------------n  [COMMENT] = " . $post_comment_content . "n  --------------n"); 			fwrite($txtdrop, "  [SOURCE_IP] = " . $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] . " @ " . date("F j, Y, g:i a") . "n"); 			fwrite($txtdrop, "  [USERAGENT] = " . $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'] . "n"); 			fwrite($txtdrop, "  [REFERER  ] = " . $_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'] . "n"); 			fwrite($txtdrop, "  [FILE_NAME] = " . $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] . " - [REQ_URI] = " . $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] . "n"); 			fwrite($txtdrop, '--------------**********------------------'."n"); 			header("HTTP/1.1 406 Not Acceptable"); 			header("Status: 406 Not Acceptable"); 			header("Connection: Close"); 			wp_die( __('bang bang.') ); 		} 	} } add_action('init', 'drop_bad_comments');
