:: Really Digging WordPress

Ok, i'm seriously digging wordpress. Thanks to a comment spammer, i went ahead and created a Comment URL whitelist function.

What's a comment whitelist function, you ask? Well, it looks up particular hosts in a master table, and if it finds them, it doesn't put the magic Please Ignore Me Google link at the front of it.

This means that folks that visit me regularly and whom i like will once again get SEO love from me. Folks that don't or who want to post up random crap, won't.

i'm tempted to also put the first pull of the isb_filters up, although i'd note that they're not really well commented or optimised, and i'm guessing that nobody else would want to have the dropcase i thing going on.

There are a few things that i want to do in the future, including:
1. Regular contributors don't get the redirector slapped onto their URLs, including ones they put in content
2. Right now, if you want to do this, you'll have to create the table. No big, but i probably should automate that somehow. Oh yeah, and provide a nice GUI interface for the control set.

Still, i've got to admit that the plugin configuration for wordpress is pretty sweet.
