Sadly, it breaks the ability to post comments via the Wordpress APP (on mobile devices) – yet, it *is* incredibly useful for what it does. It would be even nicer if it (particularly the Wordpress Plugin) would be more actively supported – i.e. no updates for around 3 years is kinda lame, IMO, for something as vital as this presents itself as.

It probably wouldn’t be difficult to provide a specific case scenario for mobile apps, if the dev were to more update this more frequently. I say this with both sadness and frustration, not scorn, as this is a very useful utility, yet I fear abandonment issues will eventually resign it to the trashheap, where it shouldn’t be. (cue the usual: “It’s open source, you can update it yourself, yadda yadda, ad nauseam freetard chatter….”)

Have there been any attempts at better mobile support?

I have to disagree with you here — this isn’t ‘abuse’ of JavaScript at all. People with handicaps and Braille browsers may still submit comments, and yes, they are very likely to be flagged as spam, but that shouldn’t be considered ‘abuse.’ This program simply takes the key commonalities of spammer submissions and flags these submissions as likely spam. That seems like a very intelligent thing to do.

You have JavaScript disabled? Good luck on most websites today. This comment offers no alternative or solution either. This is not a ‘garbage method’ but a highly successful one for stopping 1,000s of spam messages on my website each year. I welcome it whole-heartedly.

Hi, I’m running BuddyPress 1.5.6 and default theme.
I’ve installed WP Hashcash Extended. How do I know that the plugin is working?
You say:
“WP Hashcash relies on the presence of two hooks in your theme, wp_head and comment_form. If your theme doesn’t include these actions, you will need to add them immediately before the and tags respectively.”
In what file do I need to check for these hooks?
Thanks.

Comment on Pagerank Forum Spam by Levent Müslim

I will translate the link for you so you can decide how moron Turks are and write an apologize for your accusation.

Before that, if you still believe Turks are “moron spammers”, know that I can speak your language but you can’t SPEAK MINE! Am I another “moron spammer” like you suggested,too. Even that amateur who provided your site on a “forum site” can speak your language.

Insulting and resisting on your insult for more than 2 years without any further investigation seems like the act of a “moron” to me. It seems like you didn’t make the impact with your article on this page and only received comments from another amateurs just like my fellow Turkish amateur.

You might be angry or over self confident by the time you wrote this article. Consider again, you’ve come a long way over the years and it’s time to update this page and apologize.
Finally your actual and correct translation is below and special for you. As you can see he opens a topic and want to help others. Yes he was wrong and that’s the only point I agree with you. He says he made a little research, he doesn’t consider himself a web SEO professional. And where does he get the information? From other websites which were written in English. You, me and everyone knows that there are such **** websites polluting the web and confusing people’s minds; such as black hat SEO, affiliate sale pages like clickbank and many more.
What will you do now?

“Yabancı bloglara yorum yazıp banclink alan arkadaşları duymuşsunuzdur yada görmüşsünüzdür bende biraz araştırma yaptım sizler için tamamen kendi emegimdir hiçbir yerden alıntı degildir.azcık ingilizce yazabiliyorsanız tamamdır isim e mail ve site adınızı ister onları yazdıktan sonra thanks thank you fln yazmanız yeterlidir
bol bancklikli günler kolay gelsin”
“You’ve seen people writing comments on foreign logs and get backlinks. I made a little research for you and it’s all my hard work, not quoted by someone.If you can peak a little English, that’s all you need.Comments require your name and e-mail and site address, after you fill those it’s enough if to write thanks, thank you.
Have a good day with many backlinks.

Hi!
I like Hashcash, but it’s acting incompatible with the Firewall 2 plugin…

Any fix?

Thanks!

Don’t use this. Keep the web open and accessible! This will make your comment form inoperable for many mobile users, and people with handicaps that are using Braille browsers and so on. Javascript should NEVER be a requirement to USE your web site, and the spammer will find a way around garbage methods like this anyway.

I’m still experiencing trouble with the location of the badwords.txt file. I installed the plugin by uploading the zip file to wordpress to let it install the plug-in and it returns the following errors in the comments:
[code]
Warning: file(/home/bluestak/public_html/motherhoodstress.com/wp-content/plugins/badwords.txt) [function.file]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/bluestak/public_html/motherhoodstress.com/wp-content/plugins/polite-ifier/wp-politeifier.php on line 31
