Enables spam detection from Akismet. Comments will be passed to the Akismet API for spam detection. If a comment is determined to be spam, it will prompt the user, indicating that the comment might be considered spam. If the user continues after this point with the still spam-like comment, the comment will be reported as containing spam, and sent for moderator approval.

Note: Akismet is a premium service, charges may apply.

Configuration:

  • TALK_AKISMET_API_KEY (required) - The Akismet API key located on your account page.
  • TALK_AKISMET_SITE (required) - The URL where you are embedding the comment stream on to provide context to Akismet. If you’re hosting talk on https://talk.mynews.org/, and your news site is https://mynews.org/, then you should set this parameter to https://mynews.org/
