I read the required post before posting my question about the advanced guest book. It wasn't answered in the required post nor in the forum so I decided to delete all messages and the guestbook - only to find the guest book has not been deleted .
How do I delete the guestbook? There are way to many people spamming it . I no longer receive the bounced emails because of the options I chose but that doesn't mean I want it just sitting out there either.
I'm new to this. I created a guestbook several months ago. A little while back I changed it over to the "advanced" and now when I try and change the settings (like the password) it doesn't take. People are spamming the guestbook with all kinds of inappropriate things. I just found the IP Number Ban List: section (not sure how it was missed). Have tried setting passwords, flooding, and everything else but it's not helping. What else can I do. The guestbook used to be on the home page of my website but it has been moved to a page that is not usable on the internet yet. These spammers have bookmarked the guestbook and still posting. I delete 40-50 messages everyday. Now you know the background - what can I do to fix this? How can I get the new settings to take and stop the spammers?
