Comments are closed after 30 days
Posted by Jim on August 6th, 2008 filed in wordpressTo be harsher on comment spam (no follow really increases that crap!) I’ve decided to use a plug-in to stop comments from being posted on posts older than 30 days. I am also going to delete all the comments in my ‘moderation queue’, sorry about that if you wrote an essay
This plug-in to block comments after 30 days was quite difficult to find, the main result on google was to a deleted plug-in (BRILLIANT!) So incase you googled over here, this is the Close Old Posts plug-in you want.

Not a bad idea…should keep out the riff raff.

Good idea. This plug-in is very useful for WP blogs. I need to find one for Drupal.

BTW thanks for the link — it’s really a great plugin.

I am currently experiencing the same problem after i supported the dofollow movement. Moderation became a time consuming problem due to spammers. I will try to use the plugin if possible.
