create plugin page http://qdb.wp.kukmara-rayon.ru/wp-ms-question-antispam/
change “Plugin URI” from http://qdb.wp.kukmara-rayon.ru/ to the plugin page.
change version from 0.0.2 to 0.0.3
direct “die” in “preprocess_comment” instead of setting “wp_delete_comment” and “die” in “comment_post”, as in Peter’s Custom Anti-Spam
add “I have used WordPress Hashcash code, also I have looked at buhsl-Captcha, Cookies for Comments, Peter’s Custom Anti-Spam codes, to learn and use their codes” between version line and licence explanation
discover that antispam question and answer are same in all blogs, that is bad because blogs are in different languages
write a message in 3 languages
fix texts in admin page
have corrected it, same answers in all blogs, looking at Cookies for Comments code
change version to 0.0.4
seems when using “direct die” spam comments are saved, but not published, i change it back to old method
changing back to old method seems has not helped
have discovered that answer form is here even for logged in user
fix that with help of buhsl-captcha code

code
// admins can do what they like
if( is_admin() ){
was not correct, is_admin do not mean user is admin, but that page is admin page. now i use is_user_logged_in() instead of it. i had copied the code, that now have appeared as incorrect, from wp-hashcash.
2011-10-19 8:54 utc+4 :
i want to prepare to set in wordpress plugins site. should move into folder. and make readme file.
i have renamed: from wp-ms-question-antispam to wp-simple-qa-antispam because signup is not only in multisite. qa is question-answer. i want to name this wp-signup-comment-simple-question-answer-antispam. i have changed my mind, i want to publish this in my site as single .php file before i make it prepared for wordpress plugins site. ah and “ms” is needed, because some plugins do not support ms mode, they are buggy in ms.
renamed to wp-ms-signup-comment-simple-question-answer-antispam.php
to do list: should make buddypress compatible. should make option for ms admin to change questions and answers in all blogs.
2011-11-7: once i have seen that old method to delete comments also leave some of them for moderation, for that, i am going to set it back to new “direct die” method. … i have set it. now i going to set comparing answer with modifying to lowercase. … i have set it now.
2013-11-03: i had not installed this in wp plugins site, i tried “wordpress-multisite-question-antispam” but “wordpress” was not alowed. now i try again , without that word. i rename: from WordPress Multisite Question Antispam to Question Antispam. also wp-ms-question-antispam to question-antispam in plugin url in my blog … that is private page yet
