How to block SPAM in your food24 blog
February 15, 2012 in Food24Ed posts
Hi bloggers,
I have put together a simple wiki for how to activate your Akismet spam filter on your blog.
NB: You do not pay for anything!
Please follow my easy instructions with screen shots to help you on your way. It takes a few minutes and you will be on your way to spam free blogging.
Note: Please bear in mind that some spam does get through. Spam blockers block computers that are trawling the net, but if there are humans doing the spamming, it’s just a matter of deleting it. We have also installed an awesome spam blocker in our backend called Wanguard and it is doing some great work as we sleep 
.
Click here to go to the spam wiki.
Spam-free kisses,
Caro and the food24 team.

Hi, please can you tell me how I stop the first pic in my blog being the one that appears on the home page? My biltong post has a pic of dried mango! and I don’t know how to change it.
