常见问题:
Will discarded spam comments end up in trash or spam?
Nope. Once The 9 Dollar Comment Spam Mute discards a comment, it’s gone for good — no trash, no spam folder, no second chances.
What’s the deal with Silent Mode?
Silent Mode (recommended) = spam comments are discarded and bots see a fake success message. They never figure out they’ve been blocked, so they won’t switch up their attack patterns. Silent Mode off = spam comments are rejected with a normal error message. Either way, your database stays clean.
Can real comments ever get caught by accident?
It’s possible — no spam filter is 100% perfect. That’s why the opt-in step makes this crystal clear. The keyword blacklist and link limit are the usual suspects if false positives happen. Tune them to fit your audience.
Does it work with WooCommerce product reviews?
You bet. WooCommerce reviews use the same WordPress comment hook, so all LITE features cover them automatically. No extra setup.
Does this thing call home (external APIs)?
Never. Every spam check runs locally on your server. No data leaves your site.
Is this GDPR/DSGVO friendly?
Absolutely. No data ever leaves your server. The discarded comments log stores only IP, author name, email, and a short content preview — all inside your own database. IPs are kept for spam detection and security analysis (legitimate interest under GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)), never shared, never shown publicly. Log entries auto-delete after 90 days, and you can clear them manually anytime.
How is this different from Akismet?
Akismet sends every comment to an external cloud for analysis and needs an API key. The 9 Dollar Comment Spam Mute runs entirely on your own server, requires no account or key, and discards spam before it reaches your database — instead of dumping it into a spam folder that just fills up.
What's the difference between Armed and Disarmed?
Disarmed = the plugin is installed and configured, but no comments are discarded. Armed = protection is active, and spam comments are silently discarded on submission — they never reach the database.
Can I pause spam protection without losing my settings?
Yep. Just set Spam Protection to "Inactive" anytime. All your settings stick, and you can re-arm in one click.
Does the plugin protect against repeated spam attempts from the same IP?
Yes. The LITE version includes automatic rate limiting — any IP that submits more than 5 comments within an hour is automatically blocked for the remainder of that hour. This stops the most common bot patterns without affecting legitimate users.
What happens when I uninstall the plugin?
By default, all plugin data stays in your database. If you check "Delete data on uninstall" in settings, everything (settings + log) gets permanently removed when you uninstall.
Do I need an API key or an account?
Nope. The LITE version is completely free — no registration, no key, no account. Just install and go.
