In reply to: [Akismet Anti-spam: Spam Protection] premium plugin, not freeYou are welcome to change the payment amount to zero if you are using Akismet on a non-commercial site.
I’m unable to reproduce this, running WordPress 5.8.1, Akismet 4.1.12, and PHP 8, and looking at the code, I wouldn’t expect to:
$intro = sprintf( _n( '<a href="%1$s">Akismet</a> has protected your site from %2$s spam comment already. ', '<a href="%1$s">Akismet</a> has protected your site from %2$s spam comments already. ', $count , 'akismet'), 'https://akismet.com/wordpress/', number_format_i18n( $count ) );sprintf()should only need a total of three arguments: the format string and two values, since there are two placeholders (%1$s and %2$s).Is it possible that another plugin you’re running is interfering and modifying the format string via a filter? Or have you manually changed the strings being supplied to
_n()?- This reply was modified 4 years, 9 months ago by Christopher Finke.

Yes, as long as you have Akismet installed and configured, it should automatically check WooCommerce product reviews for spam.

In reply to: [Akismet Anti-spam: Spam Protection] SiteGround Security – XML-RPCHello,
Disabling XML-RPC should not have any effect on Akismet.

In reply to: [Akismet Anti-spam: Spam Protection] Why we have to pay for this?All systems that allow user comments are susceptible to spam, and Akismet is free for personal use. Feel free to reach out to us directly with any further questions at support@akismet.com.
Akismet uses honeypot fields when appropriate, so no, you don’t need a honeypot plugin in addition to Akismet.

In reply to: [Akismet Anti-spam: Spam Protection] Akismet PHP 8.0 compatibilityYes, Akismet is compatible with PHP 8. I’ve been testing it in a PHP 8.0.2 environment and have not found any issues.
I’ve committed the switch to
deferin https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/2531878/Regarding minifying, I’m going to defer on that for now, as I feel that the value of end-users being able to easily read the Akismet JavaScript and see what it’s doing outweighs the bandwidth savings that minification brings.
