Find user who approved comments in Wordpress? - wordpress

On Wordpress 3.4, is there any functionality or any way using which I can find who (which user) approved some particular comments?
I have a blog that is having a multiple admin and few comments that are spam but not approved by anyone. I think its hacking or a compromise of someone password... so need to figure out as which user account is used to approve the comment?
I have tried to find out, but unable to find any way to find this information? May be someone here has an idea on how to get this information from wordpress.

Is there a way to find Wordpress Plugin updates without admin panel access

I've been asked by a prospective client, to do an audit on their WordPress site.
They have asked me,
if I can check their all plugins are up to date too but they wont / cant (yet) give me access to the admin panel.
Is there a way I can do this? I know I can find the WP version in the code of the site (and this one needs updating)
Hope someone can help.
Thanks in advance
You could ask them for a screenshot of their plugins page (www.example.com/wp-admin/plugins.php), and then cross-reference the versions listed there with WordPress.org to check if they are up-to-date.

posting to a wordpress blog using XML-RPC without credentials

I would like to be able to create a post from within my iPhone app/server code.
I'm guessing there is no problem doing it with XML-RPC.
The thing is that my app user needs to give me his admin user/password to the blog, which is something I would like to avoid (as a user I would have a problem disclosing this data myself)
The question is - can I avoid it somehow? Having the user install a plugin I wrote that will somehow help me seems more reasonable to me - the question is: "Will it help? What can be done?
Creative solutions are welcomed...
Security through obscurity is never a good idea I would suggest just making your username and password the same thing while setting the user role to Author.This would all you to post with little effort.

Wordpress registration with Admin verification

im searching for a way for Wordpress where Users can register themself on the Front-end but need to be verified by an Admin. I have already found some tools, but the Admin verification dont work by me due to an tool that enables closed Usergroups I think. I hope anyone can tell me maybe another way or why it doesn´t work with those tools i already have?
Just use "Theme my login" plugin free from wordpress.org. This plugin will provide you all the functionality which you are searching for. Find this free version of plugin using this link : https://wordpress.org/plugins/theme-my-login

Wordpress Admins are notified by email when blog is posted or edited

I'm trying to find a way to alert all admins when a blog is posted. My client has multiple admins setup for his Wordpress site and wants to be alerted when one of them submits a new blog post or edits one so he can double check it for spelling errors and to make sure he approves the content and he wants to be notified with an email. I searched for a plugin for this but came up empty. Does anyone know how to do this or if their is a plugin to accomplish this that I just couldn't find?
Thank you.
You should take a look at the subscribe2 plugin. I use it on one of my membership sites to notify subscribers when something new has been posted. You can define the notification list to include whatever email addresses you like. By default, all new posts will be emailed to those addresses.
As for edits, I don't think the plugin does it by default, however it does add a checkbox at the bottom of the post editor that allows an notification to be forced.
For other developers, who are facing same issue, here is a pretty cool plugin. It is very light weight and easy to configure. Below is the link

Wordpress & Secure Forms

Question on which way to take this project. Im creating a site that is in its simplest, a form that people can submit ideas. I want to have it post automatically to a home page.
Questions is, what is the best software out there to do this? Was thinking wordpress just because I know some php and how I could do it quickly.
Its almost similar to stackoverflow in that you ask a question, add tags to it, etc.
Any ideas?
