So I don't have an answer on how to do what you asked specifically. </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/spam-karma-2-manually-marking-spam#post-22 Sat, 04 Aug 2007 13:42:52 +0000 zoli 22@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>OK, here's a better definition of the problem:</p> <p>Spam Karma sends "please moderate" email notifications. I don't want to turn moderation notification off, for the "real" comments that fall under moderation, but I'd also like to find a way to "teach" SK what really is spam.<br /> They typically come in groups of 4-6, and the Sender name contains very obvious keywords- like casino, gambling, poker, roulette - in fact so obvious, I wonder why they do it. But I don't find a way to "blacklist" text strings as part of the Sender info. Blacklist seems to be based on either IP address or domain, which the spammers change anyway. The body of these "comments" is always very neutral, like "nice site, really like it" ..and the like.</p> <p>Any idea on how ti blacklist such words?</p> <p>Thanks a lot. </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/spam-karma-2-manually-marking-spam#post-19 Thu, 02 Aug 2007 08:40:17 +0000 zoli 19@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>I like that:-)</p> <p>I thought there was a correlation between the higher number of "green" items and the "please moderate" emails, so I wanted to train the thingie - but I think those emails came from Akismet.</p> <p>Thanks! </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/spam-karma-2-manually-marking-spam#post-17 Wed, 01 Aug 2007 22:42:13 +0000 PressHarbor Support 17@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>Like you, I am coming from this from the perspective of being a former Blogware user. So as far as I can tell, I think you are looking at things in "The Blogware Way" and not the "Spam Karma Way".</p> <p>If you see a spam in the Recent Spam Harvest, SK thought has declared it as spam. It's not in "moderation". If you think it's not spam, then "Recover" it.</p> <p>Think of the list as an Agree or Disagree list. If you Agree, there's no need to do anything. If you Disagree, then show your disagreement by Recovering the comment. </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/spam-karma-2-manually-marking-spam#post-15 Wed, 01 Aug 2007 16:26:01 +0000 zoli 15@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>John, I had checked that blog before posting here, it's amazingly useless. Most sections (typically titled by module names) simply repeat what you can see on the Spam Karma 2 setup pages as well. Just a definition of what they are, not what they do. The User Guide you quote is slightly better, providing some details, for example on how to remove comments from moderation. </p> <p>It does not even touch, however, my question, i.e. the issue of just leaving stuff in moderation, vs. explicitely declaring them spam.... and how it could be done :-( </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/spam-karma-2-manually-marking-spam#post-12 Tue, 31 Jul 2007 23:05:49 +0000 PressHarbor Support 12@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>The best way to learn about Spam Karma would be to check out the <a href="http://wp-plugins.net/doc/sk2/">Spam Karma 2 Documentation Blog</a>. The <a href="http://wp-plugins.net/doc/sk2/sk2-user-guide/">SK2 User Guide</a> should answer most of your questions. </p> http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/topic/spam-karma-2-manually-marking-spam#post-10 Tue, 31 Jul 2007 14:54:19 +0000 zoli 10@http://support.pressharbor.com/discuss/ <p>I'd like to clarify how the "Recent Spam Harvest" screen works. There are several posts in grey, with large negative karma, and many in green, with slightly negative (e.g. -2.5) values - those are often waiting for moderation. Is Spam Karma self-learning? Does it make sense to manually mark those as spam?<br /> I have not found a way, there are options to run the filters again, also to revert selection..etc, but not a way to tell the system that all selected items are indeed spam.</p> <p>Thanks. </p>
