<p>Up until recently, WordPress gave two options: You could either disable comments and trackbacks by default for all pages and posts, or you could have them active by default. In WordPress version 4.3, this finally changed so comments are always disabled on new pages.</p>
<p>While the new change makes it easier for many of the sites, it make it harder for people who need to get the reverse and enable comments on all pages, or if they need to change the default for a custom post type. This plugin allows you to choose whether comments are enabled or disabled by default on all new posts, pages and custom post types, while still giving the ability to individually enable comments on posts or pages.</p>
<p>Also, this plugin provides a way to quickly disable all comments or pingbacks for a specific custom post type. It directly interacts with your database to modify the status, so it is highly recommended that you backup your database first. There shouldn’t be any issues using this feature, but it’s always good to play it safe.</p>

<p>Few users are familiar with the comment block list built into WordPress. Located in the WordPress admin area under “Settings”—“Discussion”, that block list for incoming comments accepts values (words) to identify spam by.</p>
<p>Additionally to plugins like <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/antispam-bee/" rel="ugc">Antispam Bee</a> in order to fight spam successfully a curated comment block list is recommendable. You can either update the list manually, or utilize a very detailed global <a href="https://github.com/splorp/wordpress-comment-blacklist" rel="nofollow ugc">comment block list</a> that gets updated on a regular basis.</p>
<p>Block List Updater has been developed to keep your comment block list in your WordPress installation up to speed with the curated global list on GitHub.</p>
<p>The plugin will check the global comment block list on GitHub multiple times a day. Whenever new anti-spam values have been added to the global list, Block List Updater will read the global list and update your WordPress database accordingly. While the check-up process will run several times a day, the plugin will only update the database when it detects an actual change of the global comment block list on GitHub.</p>
