What are some of the odd plugins for Wordpress that you like?

Warren, I know....I just like to see them work things out amongst their selves or collectively call me an idiot...my goal is to get them to live on the site until they buy or share something good.

Now I do have a few sites where the message needs to stay on point which I totally agree with you that I can't afford for someone who doesn't have a clue leading people off a cliff.

Mike I still encourage visitors to express themselves with a Contact page, so the serious ones I WANT to work with are not hindered at all.

Warren, I hear you I have had to do that on many occasions but I like for people to express themselves...I'll take the good with the bad but I definitely feel you on this...thanks.

Most of my WordPress sites now are Content Management sites where I removed the feature to make comments completely, no spam EVER.

No prob Sharmila, how this helps.

Thanks Mike for the tips. Appreciate it. :)

Sharmila, its called "remove links from comments" its a free plugin. If you edit peoples links they probably show up as you wrote them yourself. I would try to keep Akismet and use this if it works.
Also try:
LionScripts: IP Blocker Lite - anybody who spams you just put their IP in and it will block them. I know people often use proxies but for the ones who don't or for those who reuse those proxies won't bother you any longer.

Sharmila, sorry I'm all over the place today....will look right now.

What's it? I have to manually remove the links from the comments.

Sharmila, thanks I use something else but came across one as I'm putting up 300 websites now...it doesn't allow anyone to put links in there comments....so I think it is a good thing for me.

Akismet - Protects my website from SPAM.

Chris M - Oh cool, I forgot about plugins like this...since I'm back in the website business might just grab one of these or create one...thanks.

One of the best Wordpress plug-in that I like the best is AzonLocal - Show Amazon Local Deals with Your Affiliate Link
