Call to undefined method Akismet::isSpam()

  • Hello

    I’m using Wassup version 1.8.4 and Akismet version 3.0.0. I see the following error in the PHP error log:

    PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined method Akismet::isSpam() in wp-content/plugins/wassup/wassup.php on line 2560

    It looks like Wassup is using a very old Akismet API

    OK, I see the problem now. Version 3.0.0 of the Akismet plug-in defines an Akismet class, which cannot be redeclared by your lib/akismet.class.php. Perhaps renaming the Akismet class in your file would help.

    Akismet developer here; you are correct — Wassup should be prefixing their class names with something guaranteed to be unique to their plugin. “class Wassup_Akismet” would be more appropriate.

    Thank you for reporting this!

    To fix, delete the file “akismet.class.php” in Wassup’s “/lib/” folder. Wassup will continue to detect spammers, if Akismet has not been configured to delete spam comments instantly when found.
