Auto approve comments by Commenter (email, name, url), User and Role (Akismet and wpDiscuz compatible).
Usage
- Open Comments -> Auto Approve Comments
- Go to Settings -> Discussion and check “Comment must be manually approved”
- Optionally install and activate Akismet (comments flagged as SPAM will never get auto approved)
- Configure your auto approval filters in “Commenters”, “Users” and “Roles”
- Save and you’re done
From now on all the comments that match at least one of the configurations in “Commenters”, “Users” or “Roles” will always be auto approved.
