 * Hi,
    On the Settings screen, I see references to creating a database for logs
   of honeypot activity. How do I do this? Thanks!

 * I know it’s been a long time since this question was posted…
    Here’s the answer
   anyway
 * The plugin should create a table in the database called wp_**httpbl_log** (change
   the wp_ to your database prefix) when you activate the log function – strange
   that the description still says you have to do it manually
 * If it doesn’t, then add this table using your phpMyadmin manager (Apache server)–
   name as above – number of columns = 6
 * Here’s a full setup guide including instructions for the database table

 * It should create the table. But sometimes this is prevented by the limitations
   for the MySQL user used for WordPress.
 * p.s. Mike, thanks for your guide!
