  • I have the same problem on my small personal blog with ~30 visits per day. No spam at all for months, now I’ve gotten almost 90 in two days, currently at one new every 4 minutes. The spam follows two different patterns, one with random text and a link, the other with a fake comment with one word misspelt (here‘s a image of a subset of them). I’m forced to switch to reCAPTCHA at the moment.

    It’s working now. The problem was a bad database import, so wp_site and a few more tables were missing. WordPress said everything got saved alright even when it didn’t which threw me off, but an old backup did the trick.

    They do have caching, and they are having problems with it at the moment, but since the settings for individual sites work without problems I’m doubtful that this is the source for this particular problem, I’m hoping it is though. Until they have it sorted, I’m happy for any other thoughts/troubleshooting ideas.

    Regarding the plugins/theme, no I haven’t switched them off. Would they really interfere like that? I get that switching everything back to the default state is preferable while troubleshooting, but how can a theme affect the network panel? No plugins are active for the whole network.

    Regarding the media upload quota, the setting is switched off in the network settings (and the text box next to it says 10 MB), but it’s still enforced on the sites, with the phantom 50 MB value. I just double checked, it’s blank in the sites’ settings so it should use the network setting.
