How To Ban IP In WordPress!

by admin on August 4, 2009

Last few days I observed, one guys spamming my blog every day. but I am using Re-Captcha in my blog, its doesn’t working cause he using some software. whatever here is the theory.

Make his all comment as a blacklist if you want then.

How to make blacklist IP

Go to Dashboard -> Settings -> Discussion.

However, this means that any comment by this IP will be marked as spam, there is no option from stopping him going on your blog.

And keep in mind IP addresses are more often than not dynamic meaning it can change and you exclude other peoples.

At the end of the day though, as long as your password is secure and he doesn’t know it, there’s nothing he will be able to do.

But most useful tools or idea is use wp plugin to ban the user from your site. He or She can visit your site but can’t post comment.

here is the plugin for download.
