Amrayu78 Sounds interesting. How should it look? A couple of screenshots or mockup would help.

For example, an admin (please clarify who can do this) edits a comment and marks it as rude? and then this comment is displayed differently than others in the frontend? or is it hidden?

Or did you mean to notify the user who left a rude comment by email?

Max Romanchenko: Let me mock this up when I get the chance.

Max Romanchenko:

I'm trying to cut down on the amount of comments that users leave who do not read the rules.

Can we add a feature in the WP dashboard for comments, where if I flag a comment as spam, then it sends a message or email to the user for their flagged content?

Something like a 2-step process.

Click spam > Trigger a popup > Message user? Yes or no.

I do not want to message the user every time. This is on a case-by-case basis.

Or if you can think of a better way to flag the user? I'm open to suggestions.

Amrayu78 I like your implementation plan.

However, for now, it will not send emails due to the current settings.

I checked the email settings again today and I am almost certain that we need to add DKIM and SPF records for the domain in the CloudFlare settings.

Name:

default._domainkey.server.hoy.ypa.mybluehost.me.

Value:

v=DKIM1; k=rsa; p=MIIBIjANBgkqhkiG9w0BAQEFAAOCAQ8AMIIBCgKCAQEAqtsmYvBkNmF3BHf235N7MV1uVn+yEqjOvL2vBHtmF+jLPK2EPMV21VrVkTE4U6crfwuYKSs2+6GkJbCLZZb02h21WuKX59fXsd6mVR2tyfp7rkIgnX5FFffoV7Yp5UMo2dHc9foLtc3bTGFcz81SlwoIzop7LcdqscXk+QTE86IGUDdSsifOS+Vta/0MRPaAAuTcktiHX+1DhMgP4Bf8fwDDl2Vu3OjXjFAavShxYbCTDRNbLCAVek1iLfyWjsxZ0zdaOHPTw7z5e79o4dMvwd0taiHBmwGBfhQ3Dz2MXpqA+p4FA7cKpQ7+6OmnrWp6AZeLbYNxHOfMvLel7wO9lQIDAQAB;

Here is a link for more information

If you encounter any issues, please provide temporary access and I will add these records.

Max Romanchenko I've added these two entries to Cloudflare. I also saw these warnings when I first logged in.

Let me know if I need to take action for any of the below or not.

Amrayu78 It seems that some action is needed...

Could you please send a screenshot of the added DKIM and SPF records?

We may need to wait for some time. The update takes 2-48 hours.

Max Romanchenko I've added you as a user to the Cloudflare instance. Check your email for an invite. Thanks.

Amrayu78 Thank you! I clicked on the link, but something strange happened. It seems that something didn't work, because Cloudflare seems to have just created a new account for me...

I think this may be related to the missing dot in my email address. Here is the correct:

In any case, it doesn't matter because I want to delete my new Cloudflare account to avoid further confusion.

Can you please delete my membership?

Instead, please create a new temporary membership for this address (my wife's email):

Amrayu78 I have implemented a two-step process for marking comments as spam.

I renamed the Spam button to Spam + Msg for clarity.

If you select No in popup, the comment will simply be marked as spam (default behavior). If you select Yes, a textarea for a message will appear, and this message will then be sent to the user who left the comment, and the comment will also be sent to spam status.

Overall, everything works, but it is not yet possible to test it properly (until email sending is configured).

Max Romanchenko I've deleted it and created a new invite. I copied and pasted the email so not sure why the period was removed. Re-added now.

Amrayu78 Thank you! Now I can accept the invitation.

However, my privileges are not sufficient to view and modify domain zones.

Max Romanchenko I gave you admin rights now. Can you check?

Amrayu78 Thanks! It's all good now.
