Hello. A strange comment appeared in wordpress (comments from unauthorized users are disabled) to the article, instead of the login - the title of the article, and of course such a user is not logged. At first I thought a wordpress hole and you can post a comment on curl, check it out - no, authorization is still required. Any ideas how this could happen and how to defend against it? enter image description here

Most likely these are so-called notifications and backlinks. Check the settings in Settings -> Discussions. Disable the item "Allow notifications from other blogs (notifications and backlinks) to new articles"

  • It is not the answer to the question. To leave your comments or ask the author to clarify, leave a comment to the appropriate post. - From the queue of checks - Mr. Black
