  I’m observing lot of SPAMs on my site SQLwithManoj.com, daily I get 10-12 SPAM comments in my comments list and I’ve to mark them as SPAMs. But my SPAM list is growing very rapidly. As soon as I delete some lot more comes in, and right now around 3k SPAM comments are there, which is pain to delete them as I can delete only 20 comments at once. Can WordPress automatically delete the comments marked as SPAMs?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi Manoj,

  Our Akismet spam filter automatically deletes spam comments on posts published more than 30 days ago, so you don’t need to delete those manually. We’ll take care deleting the spam for you.

  We have more tips and information about dealing with spam here: Unwanted Comments and Comment Spam

  Please let me know if I can do anything more to help with that!
