Patience if you’re comments aren’t coming through
In the last week since I upgraded my blogging software and related plugins, a few of you have emailed me saying that your comments weren’t being posted. All comments run through a filter to weed out spam and some of you have been blacklisted by Akismet (a central internet database that logs known spammers). I don’t know why you’re being flagged now, but be assured that I am looking for some kind of solution that allows me to whitelist those affected.
This blog receives hundreds of spam attempts a day, so removing the filter would degrade the comments section significantly. Until I resolve this issue, please feel free to email me if you think you’ve been caught in the filter.
Thanks for your patience.
