    Dear Moderators,

    I have posted an topic about a typography isue with a clients website.
    The issue is resolved. But my client keeps getting emails from people that saw the issue and website and used it to reach my clients mail and try to sell him their services.

    I am unable to delete or hide the link. So I want to ask you to do it for me.
    So my client stops recieving ‘spam’ emails.
    The link that I am talking about is for the website that is linked in the “the page I need help with” column.

    The topic is visible via this link: https://ww.wp.xz.cn/support/topic/differrent-typography-on-pc-and-mobile/#new-topic-0

    Thanks in advance.

    Kind regards,
    Nino

    Dear Steve,

    Thanks for your reply.
    My bad I didn’t read the policy before I posted an topic with a issue I had around WordPress. Because that is what policies are for.
    But in all honesty I bet more than half of the people don’t do this. Because they want quick help for a problem delaying there project.

    So what I do need to do is post some pornographic or violent material in the comment section of the related topic for you guys to shut it down or edit it?

    In my opinion forums are there for people who are in search for knoweledge or help about a problem related to the forum. Not for people who are trying to sell a service or product. Wich in this case is the aftermath of the linked URL in the topic I posted.

    Me and my client are having a safety corncern about this problem that I can’t fix myself. I am having concerns that the websites is getting hacked by people that are using this forum to see if there are any possible hackable websites linked in the topics.

    I am not trying to be an a*s to you guys. And I know I caused this problem myself.
    The only thing I want is the URL to be left out. So my client don’t get spammed by sellers. The whole topic about the typographic problem may stay as it may be of help to other WP developers.

    Please help me out with this.

    Kind regards,
    Nino

    I’m sorry, but no. This is not a safety issue and these forums are replicated over the Internet and that has nothing to do with anyone here.

    Spam is spam and sadly that is a reality of the Internet. That has nothing to do with this place. The link in that topic is not searchable or in any search engine. I’ve closed that topic as it is for commercial support and that is not for these forums. But the hidden link will remain.

    Again, this is NOT a safety issue in any way.

    I am closing this topic now as there is not anything more to be discussed.
