  1. Login as an admin user
  2. Go to your Contol Panel
  3. Choose Syndication
    Syndication menu
  4. Click Edit beside the feed you need to filter a blog from
  5. Scroll down and find the blog(s) you want to fliter out
  6. Click the dropdown and choose “get filtered out” as shown below repeating for each blog you want to filter out
    Syndication menu
  7. Click the Save Changes button

Filtering out these blogs will not remove them from the current feed however. It only prevents them from being syndicated from this point forward. To actually remove posts from the current feed you need to delete offensive syndicated posts.

I was able to shut them down yesterday, but I have just completed cleaning up and adding keywords exclusion lists to prevent much of this in the future. I know I have still have many offensive words to add to my lists, so if you have any suggestions please email them to me at Email Me. (I use Email Address Obfuscator to encode my email address. More on that in another post.)

Click to see the current keywords I am blocking:

As I started, I realized this will be a long post and contain other useful tips that apply to normal maintenance of the site. Because of that I am going write multiple posts and then tie them all together here. The topics will be as follows:

As I write each post, I will link it here.
