How Akismet work?
When a new comment, trackback, or pingback comes to your blog it is submitted to the Akismet web service which runs hundreds of tests on the comment and returns a thumbs up or thumbs down.

What does this plugin do?
This Joomla! component is UNUSABLE alone: other components HAVE TO USE IT. Consider this component as a Framework. It help other developers integrate Akismet in their code. This component is simply a bridge, hiding Akismet details and providing an unified way to use Akismet in Joomla 3rd party component code.

NEW: Slider administrator panel.
NEW: Native Joomla! 1.5 plugin, no need to install in legacy mode.

NEW: Checking now the validity of your Akismet key, see screenshot below


NEW: check for proper operations, test individually comments, see screenshot below


NEW: Fully translated, including manuals, help and troubleshootings

NEW: New API more like in Joomla! 1.5, but the old one is still working

require_once (_JOOMLA_AKISMET_ADMIN_BASE . '/akismetJoomlaAPI.php');
$JoomlaAkismetAPI = JoomlaAkismetAPI::getJoomlaAkismetAPI();
$JoomlaAkismetAPI->isKeyValid("123456789");


NEW: Using Akismet PHP 5 engine version 0.4 (author Alex Potsides http://www.achingbrain.net/)

• Performance - changed HTTP version from 1.1 to 1.0 (with thanks to Jan De Poorter).
• Performance - No longer issues a separate HTTP request to check validity of the API key with every instantiation.
• Added a new public method 'isKeyValid' to manually check validity of the API key passed to the constructor.
• The method 'isCommentSpam' (rather than the constructor) will now throw an exception if the API key is invalid.
• Tidied up internal structure a bit.

BUG: Adding new guestbook entries now working in Backend (thanks to Laurie for reporting)
NEW: moved the Akobook image and titles to up in the navigation bar of the component (Laurie)
NEW: moved your code for images to another tab called Security / Integration. I would like to add
another option here so that you can choose to use the captcha option in Community Builder (Captcha 2.0.1).
That way I can have the same captcha used everywhere. (Laurie)
NEW: Moved the number of entries to show on the admin page to the bottom to fit in with other components. (Laurie)
NEW: Changed image from publish to tick to fit in with other components. (Laurie)
NEW: Added some widths to the tables in backend so entry has more space so it can be more easily viewed (Laurie)
NEW: Moved the copyright notice to bottom of about page and removed it from other pages. (Laurie)
BUG: Ability for administrator to edit/delete/comment now working with BBcode support

A big Thanks to Laurie from Down Under (Australia) for his help.

I wont add much new functionalities in such a messy code, the first task to do as soon as it is working is to cleanup/redesign the code behind the scene
