I have lot of spam trackbacks, how do I easily remove it and also how to prevent spamming of track backs.
hey pradheep,
it's advisable to turn off trackbacks completely - in fact in the upcoming easyblog 4.0 we're going to remove trackbacks completely. here's a quote from mark also with a solution to get rid of them:


Turn off trackbacks because we are going to remove it in EasyBlog 4.0 anyway. Trackbacks was meant to build link backs for blogs that was created in the past but lately, it seems like these spammers are really hitting really hard on trackbacks. Turn it off, and run the SQL query below to remove all trackbacks (So that MySQL wouldn't be heavy)


truncate table #__easyblog_trackback



Replace #__ with your table prefix.


hope that helps and have a nice day

Hello Pradheep,

Did you run the SQL query that Alex posted earlier? If you cannot execute it, please provide us with the phpmyadmin access.
