RE: Blocking form mail spam

The feedback form still exists as an HTML web page under the _ WebPages virtual directory. There are actually two versions, Feedbackform.html and an old test page testform.html.
But there are no links pointing to either HTML page from the blog -- and havent been for a couple of years. Rather than delete them entirely, If I rename the pages to something more cryptic, will that defeat the spammers?

There is really no way to turn your blog into a forum like this one. If you move to Wordpress on our PressHarbor.com platform for example, you might be able to integrate a blog and a forum. But there is no way to turn a BlogHarbor into a forum...

The format used in this General Discussion. I would like to have one page on the blog with that format, but have never been able to figure out how to do it.

Are you saying there is no page at all on your blog with the form?

A page like what one?

Blocking form mail spam

Thu, 22 Oct 2009 10:18:23 -0400

John,
I'm starting to get form mail spam on my blog www.engagingchina.com even though I stopped using the feedback form three years ago.
Spammers must have guessed the URL, I suppose. Its not yet a major nuisance but is there a way to disable the form mail feature?

How do I...

Thu, 22 Oct 2009 01:35:11 -0400

My question is how do I create a page like this one on my blog? We have an open thread page or board, but all the comments get mixed with other subjects. I was thinking that a page like this one would solve a lot of my problems. Any ideas?

Trouble with trolls or spammers?

I found this one site which may discourage them (trolls or spammers), it looks like this:

This is free and maybe useful to some of you.

For blogs, AddThis provides codes that are compatible with the following blog systems: WordPress, Blogger, TypePad, Tumblr, Movable Type. Can you tell me which system is compatible with blogware? Thank you.

I guess Blogger API is supported, so write to AddTHis, and they will add BlogHarbor to the supported services.

can I get the new blog designed before you do the migration

Yes you can.

or will the migration wipe out all the work I've done on the new blog?

Migrating the content would have no effect on your theme.

So, let's say I've set up my PressHarbor account.

1) I assume the next step would be to upload the template I'm going to use, right?

2) Then, once my template is uploaded, I can change the colors using the CSS?

3) Then I can rebuild the sidebars?

4) Then I can ask you to migrate the old BlogHarbor blog?

In other words, can I get the new blog designed before you do the migration, or will the migration wipe out all the work I've done on the new blog?

Or do I have to do the migration first and have all my adjustments done as our readership moves over to the new blog and watches the whole thing come together?

Thank you.

So, do I understand correctly that we lose both sidebars completely and no pictures will show on posts that we've put up over the last 5 years if we migrate? In addition, we lose all webpages?

Not exactly. Yes, you would need to recreate the sidebars. No, you are not correct that no pictures will show on posts, and yes, WebPages are not migrated, only articles.
