Snippet Library
Comments snippets for WordPress
Snippets for WordPress comments: fight spam, close comments on old posts, remove the website field, change the comment form and moderate faster. For bloggers and publishers who want useful discussions without the noise.
Hold Comments Written in All Capitals
Sends comments that are mostly in capital letters to the moderation queue instead of publishing them straight away.
Honeypot Field for Comment Spam
Adds a hidden field to the comment form that people never see but many bots fill in. Comments that fill it are rejected before reaching the database.
Minimum and Maximum Comment Length
Rejects comments shorter than 15 characters or longer than 5,000 characters. Moderators are not limited.
Reject Comments Submitted Too Fast
Rejects comments sent within a few seconds of the page loading, which only bots manage, using a signed timestamp in the form.
Remove Links From Comment Author Names
Shows commenter names as plain text instead of links to their websites, removing the main reward for comment spammers.
Remove the Website Field From Comments
Removes the Website (URL) field from the comment form, which discourages comments posted only to get a link.
Send Comments With Links in the Name Field to Spam
Marks comments as spam when the name field contains a web address, a classic trick of spam bots.
Send Comments With Too Many Links to Spam
Marks a comment as spam when it contains more links than you allow, catching most link-dropping spam before it reaches the moderation queue.
Stop Turning URLs in Comments Into Links
Keeps web addresses typed in comments as plain text, so spam links are not clickable.
Stricter Comment Flood Protection
Requires a longer pause between two comments from the same person, 60 seconds instead of WordPress's 15, to slow down comment bursts.
Strip HTML From Comments
Removes all HTML tags from comments submitted by users who are not allowed to post unfiltered HTML, so links and formatting cannot be injected.
