• Hello friends!

    My Akismet plugin can’t connect to the Akismet servers because I have ConfigServer Security & Firewall installed on my dedicated server.

    How do I allow access to the plugin Akismet servers?

    Information Akismet blog: https://blog.akismet.com/akismet-hosting-faq/

    I did it in my file “csf.allow”, see:

    #
    # Note: IP addressess listed in this file will NOT be ignored by lfd, so they

    # add it to csf.ignore
