I have notice that there are still a lot of bloggers that have the word verification active. I don't know why. I'm thinking maybe it's because they haven't figured out how to get rid of it. I know it's there to eliminate spam messages but I've never received any spam and mines have been off almost the entire time that I have been blogging. So I figured I would create a post that shows you how to turn the WORD VERIFICATION off.
Step 1: Go to your dashboard and select SETTINGS (on the left side of the screen)
Step 2: Look underneath the settings menu and select POST AND COMMENTS
Step 3: Where it says SHOW WORD VERIFICATION select NO

I'm pretty sure mine is off and I have been receiving a ton of spam. I want to put it back on but I know people hate.
ReplyDeleteKeep it on if you have spam. Lol. Spam is annoying
DeleteI had to put mine back on. I was being hit by spam horribly. It was annoying!!
ReplyDeleteI hate having it on, but I don't know what an option is?
Take care!!

I think you should keep it on if you are getting spam. A lot of us dont get the spam messages.
DeleteGood post.. Word verification is annoying. I definitely think bloggers should have it turned off. I know I'm not the only one who hates it.
ReplyDeleteI actually get spammed quite a bit but I have my comment moderation on so I accept or reject any comments before they get published.
I didnt even mention this. Thanks for bringing up the comment moderation. That's what should be used to control spam.
