How Will I get rid of spam comments after installing it?

@mukesh, Hello and welcome! To address your questions about switching from the standard WordPress commenting system to wpDiscuz:
- Installing wpDiscuz will not remove your old comments. It works with the existing WordPress comments database, so all your previous comments will remain intact and visible.
- wpDiscuz helps reduce spam comments by offering advanced anti-spam features such as integration with popular anti-spam services, customizable comment moderation, and options to limit or filter guest comments without forcing registration.
- You can keep allowing guest comments without requiring signups, and still benefit from spam protection features like CAPTCHA, comment approval, and spam filters that wpDiscuz provides.
