Disable/Remove Comments and Trackback Function

Post by HuggerBusker »

Greetings

I have been getting so much spam these past few months through the comments and trackback function on my blog that even my Domain Host complained. Apart from the spam I rarely get comments to my blog entries so I want to disable or even remove completely the Comments and Trackback Function completely so that spammers no longer have access to journal and my mailbox.

I have used the manual approval methode and that is what has been getting me so much emal as I have to delete every request individually and seeing as they are all spam anyway I want to simply end their ability to post on my blog.

How do I do this?

Is it possible to do this for all my entries on my blog simultaniously, as I have several hundred and do not have the time to go through them one at a time ?

Thanks you for your help
H.B.

I'm very sorry for your problems, I'm also peskered by those spammers :(
