Don't want to use plugins to manage your website? You can enable stricter comment rules through the dashboard under "Settings">"Discussions". By enabling core WordPress options that only allow registered/logged in users to post comments and require manual approval of all comments, you can prevent spam, but this is time-consuming and may discourage users from posting comments.
What is spam?
Junk emails are comments, pings, and even social media tags that you may receive while operating a website that are off topic, irrelevant, inappropriate, and unwanted. Usually these are robots, not real people who leave comments on your website.
Is there an easy way to manage my WordPress security?
If you don't want to worry about network security, we recommend choosing a good hosting plan that includes daily backups, firewall, and malware scanning to ensure the security of your server. If you want to add additional layers of protection, consider using security plugins such as Solid Security or Wordfence.
How can I ensure my website is secure?
The best way to ensure your website's security is to follow a few simple steps:
Apply to all user accountsStrong password.
Backup Your WordPress Website (Here's How to Backup WordPressusefulGuide).
updateYour WordPress installation, themes, and plugins (although we recommend testing updates on a local host installation or staging site first). If the theme or plugin you are currently using has not been updated in the past few years, you may need to consider switching to a new theme or plugin.
Do not install illegal downloadsThe advanced themes and plugins almost always contain malicious code (viruses, spam emails, hacker backdoors, etc.).
Only usePlugins and themes from trusted websites. We do not recommend downloading from forums or third-party sharing websites (torrents). If you are unsure about the credibility of the website, please check customer reviews, product ratings, and social media accounts.
