Thousands of websites face spam and hacking attempts through comments. To
combat this, various moderation, validations, captchas, plugins, etc. are
involved. Unfortunately, such solutions do not always cope and load the
website using external scripts, etc.
Proposal to improve WordPress security:
Currently, on the page /wp-admin/options-discussion.php there is a block
"Prohibited comments keywords" it acts as an automatic moderation for
sending to the trash (i.e. comments are still accepted, so the trash can
can contain a lot of spam).
I propose to modernize this function, namely to allow administrators to
choose what to do with comments that contain prohibited comments keywords
(radio button):
- send to trash
- do not accept (when clicking on submit button, perform system
validation, if there is a word from the list, then display a notification
to the user that the comment is prohibited)
