I am having a lot of spam on my website. Do I need to activate WP security plugin? Add a different security plugin?

Hey Linda,

Not sure why you feel that you need any security plugin when hosting here on WA severs. They have the servers secured so that we do not need any security plugins whatsoever. See screen print below...

Here's their link where this is all explained: https://www.wealthyaffiliate.com/hosting/

Hope you find this helpful.

This website is not hosted from WA. It is one I purchased. I have been getting a lot of spam.

Then security is not what you need. Where is the spam coming from?

If you receive spam from abusive use of your contact form, here's what I did to solve that issue:

Interesting question. It will be good to see the answers from the experts.

I use Antispam Bee

Thank you Marion.

I finally found the old photos (some over thirty years ago) that I want to add to my web site. Any suggestions for getting them digital?

I TAKE A PIC WITH MY PHONE OR YOU COULD USE AN IPAD OR SCANNER :-)) XOXOX

Thank you all for chiming in. I have a lot to work from.

I just took a photo of them, but when they have a shiny surface then there is reflection, not so good.
I wouldn't know about scanning and how to work with it then, but you got the advice for windows below.

Thank you Heidi. When I get it figured out, I will share.

I use a scanner and then use the MS Paint program that all Windows-based PCs have to compress the memory size so it doesn't slow down my website.

Good point. I keep forgetting about size.
Thank you

You are welcome. Always try to keep image below 1MB.

Thank you again

Your local photography shop might offer that service. I had mine done at my local shop. The photos needed repair and enhancement and they did a wonderful job. I'm not using them online but I emailed the photos to my family overseas. ~Jude

Might use that option if they need some repair. Thank you

When you have a scanner it's easy

Thank you Loes

If you've got a scanner/printer combo you can scan them.

Thank you Marion.

I have done that for my personal use, just wasn't sure the quality would be good enough for the site.
Thank you I will try it

Thank you Mike. Just uploaded the Heirloom app. Will see how it goes!
Have a great evening

I just take pictures of pictures with digital camera or my phone! I take them as close up as I can without distorting and I make sure I do not get anything in the background! They usually turn out pretty good! Then I can post them!
