Ryan, maybe I’m misunderstanding something. Are the moderation keys the spam words and the blacklists? If so, this bug won’t be fixed because I have have both of those and the whitelist is still skipped.
It didn’t work. Though I didn’t have spam for a few days, I just got 3 comments that made it through which were not from commenters who had previous approved comments. What I have done so far:
1. Upgraded to 1.5 from 1.3a.
2. Ran upgrade.php
3. I have cleared my spam and blacklisted fields, and then reentered it all. I’m positive there are no errors in either of these lists.
4. I have activated the requirements for name and email, and I have activated the requirement for previously approved comments.
5. I ran upgrade.php again.
6. I have also made it that 1 single link causes the comment to be marked for moderation. Apparently this doesn’t work if the link is in the URL field.As far as I can tell, there either is something uniquely strange with my setup or there is some type of bug.
coldforged, none of my plugins touch comments. I have comment spam key words and blacklisted words. There are no errors (i.e. blanks,/’s, etc) in these lists. I am definitely still getting commenters who have not been previously approved. For example, today an obviously randomly typing commenter made it through. These are not trackbacks or pingbacks.
Maybe it’s an issue of comment words being carried over from the 1.3a release? Do you think flushing my comment spam words and re-entering them might help?
watts, I’ve had spam words since the beginning and this function has never worked for me. I don’t think that’s the only problem. I still get new commenters getting through, and unfortunately most of the new commenters are spammers.

In reply to: OK I Did It. Upgrading From b2 0.6.1 To WordPressFor me this process was rather involved, so I can’t quite remember all the steps. I did install 1.0 first (it created all the MySQL tables for wordpress) and then ran the importer for b2. I found that to import the b2 data you do need to change the table prefix setting in wp-config.php to “b2”. There are changes you need to make in it (fix a couple of URLs and such) unless that’s been fixed. If I remember correctly you need to add an include to one of the files but I can’t remember which one. Maybe GamerZ remembers…
Good luck!Forum: Fixing WordPress

In reply to: OK I Did It. Upgrading From b2 0.6.1 To WordPressI’ve been trying to import my old b2 databases into nice new WP ones, so I followed these directions.
Is there any way this could have broken my MYSQL access? This is the error I get for all three (2 non-wordpress DBs) of my DBs now:
Can’t connect to local MySQL server through socket ‘/var/tmp/mysql.sock’ (2)
Anybody know what’s going on?
