This plugin for WordPress will read your productions on using the Auphonic service (via API) and pull the last 10 productions 
into WordPress automatically. It will create a post with enclosure, with the category you choose, and you have the option 
to put them in Published, or Draft mode to allow edits and add pictures, etc…and then publish.
<ul>
<li>Title of the production from Auphonic will be the Title of your post in WordPress.</li>
<li>The Summary (Description) of the Production in Auphonic will be the body of your WordPress post.</li>
<li>Any Tags you put in your Auphonic preset or production will come over to WordPress as Tags.</li>
<li>This plugin only recognizes Productions from Auphonic that produce an url with a file type of mp3, mp4, and m4a.</li>
<li>If you are using Dropbox as a service in Auphonic to place your file for example, you may not get an url directly to your file and it therefore will not be imported.</li>
</ul>

This plugin adds a stylesheet or image to your blog’s html source code. When a browser loads that stylesheet or image a cookie is dropped. If that user then leaves a comment the cookie is checked. If it doesn’t exist the comment is marked as spam. 
The plugin can also check how long it took a user to enter a comment. If it’s too fast it’s probably a spam bot. How fast can a legitimate user enter their name, email, web address and enter a well thought out comment?
For the adventurous, add these lines to your .htaccess and it will block spam attempts before they ever get to WordPress. Replace the Xs with the cookie that was set in your browser after viewing your blog. You can also find the cookie value by examining the page source code and looking for “css.php?k=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX”. Make sure the lines go above the standard WordPress rules.
<pre><code> RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !^.*XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.*$
 RewriteRule ^wp-comments-post.php - [F,L]
</code></pre>
If you use WordPress MU, replace wp-comments-post.php above with wp-signup.php to block spam signups.
<pre><code> RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !^.*XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.*$
 RewriteRule ^wp-signup.php - [F,L]
</code></pre>

Cookies for Comments

If you don't use any other spam filter plugins, then you can rely on this to stop spam comments for sure!

Must have, if you don't use any other spam filters!

I'd been getting a dozen spams a day on two of my sites. We installed "Stop Spam Comments" on one and "Cookies for Comments" on the other. Both worked perfectly. No more spam. Thanks!



very easy and no more spam!

Sets a cookie on a random URL that is then checked when a comment is posted. If the cookie is missing the comment is marked as spam.
