Spam Plugin
By wwwcjb
I keep getting spam on my Elgg site. I have tried captcha plugins but they don't seem to work at all? Has anyone got a way to stop people spamming. Is Elgg vulnerable to spam database attacks? I never got this with WP or Drupal - am I missing something?

In conjunction with this:

Between the two, you'll be virtually spam-free.
I've never used WP, but I have used Drupal a fair bit and they have an equally hard time with spam, I think you've just been lucky until now. Drupal has a fair number of anti-spam modules to help out on their side as well.
My thank you post hasnt come through - so here it is - thank you.
