September 28th, 2006QuickiesPlugins That I Use
Holy Smokes! I’m using all of these plugins .. although, not all of them are being used on any single blog … but for every plugin listed below – I really do have it “activated” somewhere on a blog in this network. For the later series of blogs .. (the “Battling-Series”, the “LVR-Series”, etc) … I started to create a separate folder on my hard drive called “Common Plugins” that I just copy over each time I create a new blog. For the earlier and other random blogs in the network, I also have many plugins that are deactivated .. either I decided that I did not want it, or it didn’t work properly once I upgraded the wordpress version.
Maybe you will see something you never heard of before, and want to check it out – it’s up to you … I’m not going to give you the schpiel .. “Top blah blah plugins Ever Needed” or crap like that. You can try activating something, and if you don’t like it – deactivate it and delete it from your plugins directory (so you won’t be tempted to re-activate it in the future). But, I have placed an asterix after the ones I will add to any newly created blogs. It would have to depend on what the new blog needs .. before I add any more plugins now. Also, I’ve noticed that some of the newer templates are starting to embed certain plugins directly into the template or the higher versions of WordPress .. (like recent comments, recent posts, etc)

For my blogs I use both Akismet and Spam Killer 2 plugins on all my blogs. Is your site a blog?
You can try sites like SPAM POISON and other anti-spam sites like this (I linked to the polish version)
On your Kontakt page I would recommend to stop placing your email on the site and create either a graphic that displays the email address or, something like:
bok (at) profesjonalna-reklama (dot) pl
>> as a text description,
or
bok@REMOVE.THISprofesjonalna-reklama.pl
>> as your mailto: linkSome ISP’s also allow a mass generic email address so anything @Domain.url will get through. On one server of mine I had to ask them to show me how to disable that. On the other server, they don’t do that anyway.
My wife was getting a lot of spam (not as much as me) and as an experiment, I deleted every email account for 45 days and recreated the same email addresses and spam dropped to about 15% of that before.
Or – you can just create new emails and start over.. instead of bok@ .. maybe info@ or sales@ or webmaster@ or even bok1@ bok2@ etc.
These are only things I can think of… I’m sure there is more solutions out there – spam is a global problem.

Afterthought …
You don’t even need to include your email address on your contact/kontakt pages .. instead you can just use a script where people people just fill in the details and the script emails you directly, not the individual.
I use both the contact form (see above top menu) and the display (at) (dot) com method. And, yes I still get spam but my email filters and Spamnix in Eudora plugin practically labels about 95% of it accurately.
