Hi,
lately I am seeing that several spam web site submit their URL
for approval and news in my geekog web site (I am still using gkl 1.3.8.1)
Is there any way to ban these url from even appearing the news interface
for approval?

Cheers
ANtonio

First of all: Please upgrade ASAP. That version has security issues, it's old, and shouldn't really be used any more.

The solution is, of course, to use the Spam-X plugin that we've been shipping with Geeklog for the last few versions now. Another good reason to upgrade.

Also see our Wiki: Dealing with Spam.

bye, Dirk
