People (hundreds a day) are sending me unwated posts to my website. They show up on contact page as approved. They post automatically. I have to go in and manually delete hundreds a day. They’re mostly porn.

What do i do to stop this?

@pauevans – it looks like you are new here – so you may have missed the forum guidelines about posting in all caps – it’s considered yelling – please don’t do it here.

This sounds like automated trackback spam. Uncheck the “Allow link notifications from other blogs” setting under “Discussion Settings”.
