Suffering from link loss?
June 4, 2007 by Gary Schlee
At the moment, any comments left on A Class Act that include one or more links are being rejected. I don’t know why, but am looking into it. In the meantime, you might want avoid adding any links (as darned helpful and logical as they are!) until I find a way to make them more acceptable again.

Hey Gary,
I believe that “Dr. Dave’s Spam Karma 2″ is the culprit – it may be that it’s being a bit overzealous. You should be able to either disable this or alter its parameters to accept links by logging into your Wordpress dashboard, going to ‘Plugins’, finding the aforementioned plugin, and under the ‘action’ column either hit ‘deactivate’ to get rid of it (not what I would reccomend) or ‘edit’ to look at its options and see if there isn’t a way to protect yourself while also allowing links…
Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you’re still having problems, I’d be happy to take a look at it for you.
Not just rejected…killed off/disappearing forever into the tech ether. No opportunity to go back to reclaim and de-link.
The Rejected One
Thanks for the Spam Karma tip, Will. I’d actually checked that out (sometimes I amaze even myself!), but today I disabled it and reset it to see if that might help. According to Robert French, the dynamo behind prblogs.org, there’s an additional filter that was added to the template. That’s likely the source of the problem, so I remain hopeful that Robert — and James Farmer at blogsavvy — will have it solved soon.
In the meantime, Judy, key the link in as text and I’ll go in and manually morph it into a hyperlink. And, my apologies for the link-ache.
