Insane Amount of Trackback Spam


By David Grant - Posted on 20 September 2006

Due to the insane amount of trackback spam I have been getting, I had to disable trackbacks altogether. As soon as the akismet drupal module<?a> supports trackbacks, I might be able to re-enable them. I really think trackbacks are a useful feature.

Hi there,

I found your website via Google, because I was researching the web for how to get those damn trackback spams away from my site. Well, there are some discussions going on at drupal.org that the trackback module will be fixed to work with the akismet filter. So I hope, there will be any news within the next few months to get rid of that problem.

Greetings from Germany,

I thought this was already implemented, but that I was just too lazy to try out the latest trackback module... Well from the link you provided it looks like the patch is out there, just waiting to get into an official trackback module release I guess.
