bump

no one?

same problem here…
(wp 2.3.2)

have done it a zillion times.
downloaded spam karma 2 now instead.

hope some solution comes up.

Otto42, thank you for your help anyway.

Hey nice. just installed that one before I read this post.
Does it work good for you?

Otto42: Okej, that doesn’t help me. Maybe my Api key is fu**ed up?

jowie: I installed the recaptcha plugin just for fun, and I verified the 2 keys for it. and it worked like a charm.

akismet wtf

deleted, double post.

Otto42:
did you use the same API key or did you get a new one?

jowie:
Looked at your ReCAPTCHA. Don’t like the look of it, the design. it would mess my design on my site ??

Well, hope something happens. Want my key to work :/

What do I do if that doesn’t solve it?

jowie: I tried to empty the api key box and then save. tried it 2-3 times before my key was deleted from the box.

then I tried to re-enter the key and save. But key cannot be validated bla bla. ??

so now my api key box is empty and i cant activate the akismet plugin ??

have you guys found any answers?

I can answer my own last question.
Can anyone give me the address when akismet tries to connect to there server from my blog?

The Connection string..

Found it on this site: https://akismet.com/development/api/

Yeah, I deactivated my plugins before my upgrade.

kerusdotorg: I have tried to reupload the akismet.php and reinput the api key but with no good result.

I put in the option that every comment have to be moderated by a admin before it is posted on the site.

Well, good for you that it works for you but there’s a lot of people having problem now.

I don’t think that they only have one server. My api key has worked fine for 2-3 years and now suddenly stopped.

Somethings wrong. Talked with my ISP (web host) and they can’t see anything wrong. They are not blocking anything (firewall) the fopen workes also the port 80 outbound. I gave them the akismet code so they are looking at it now.
