In reply to: [Akismet Anti-spam: Spam Protection] Multiple PHP noticesThese are typical Akismet debug logs. You can disable them by either setting
WP_DEBUG_LOGto false, or adding a filter that returns false forakismet_debug_log.I’ll add the null handling, although I’m surprised that you’re seeing this behavior so frequently (or even at all). Are you able to debug and find out the value of
$comment['comment_post_ID']whenget_post()returns null? If it’s not zero, does a post exist with that ID? I think that when this happened in the past, another plugin had been unintentionally modifying the result ofget_post().If you’re not able to debug, can you post the list of plugins you’re running?

In reply to: [Akismet Anti-spam: Spam Protection] PHP 7.1.1 WarningsI’ve tested Akismet with PHP 7 and haven’t run into this issue. What other plugins are you running? I think I see how this could theoretically happen, but I’d like to be able to reproduce it before committing a fix.

In reply to: [Akismet Anti-spam: Spam Protection] Why get I Spam-Emails ?Can you post a screenshot of what one of these emails looks like? I can’t think of a situation where you’d get an email that has “Akismet:Spam” in the title unless some other service you’re using is also using Akismet in their workflow.
Do you have the setting “Comment must be manually approved” checked in your Discussion settings?
Akismet hasn’t changed recently in how it deals with comment filtering, so my guess would be that it’s a bug in a recent version of Simple Comment Editing.

In reply to: [Akismet Anti-spam: Spam Protection] Cookies on Akismet?No, the Akismet plugin does not use or track cookies.
It does filter contact form submissions, but Akismet does not yet filter spammy signups.

In reply to: [Akismet Anti-spam: Spam Protection] Whitelist for certain words/URLs/users?There’s no whitelist or settings; the best thing to do is just mark the comment as not spam so that Akismet can learn from it.
If you repeatedly are seeing legitimate comments get marked as spam, email us at support@akismet.com with your site URL and API, and we’ll look into it.

In reply to: [Akismet Anti-spam: Spam Protection] Updated 47 years ago?It was a caching bug affect multiple plugins in the repository, and it should be fixed now.
@jeffr0 @akismet lol. It's a caching issue. We're aware of it. Not uncommon immediately after a release. Server load. 🙂

In reply to: [Akismet Anti-spam: Spam Protection] Akismet missing spam commentsHi, it looks like your API requests aren’t making it to our servers, which would explain why the comments aren’t being caught as they should. Can you email support@akismet.com with the API key that you’re using just to make sure that it’s the right one?

In reply to: [Akismet Anti-spam: Spam Protection] Akismet missing spam commentsI’m sorry to hear that! What site is this happening on?
Depending on what you’re using for analytics, bots might not show up since they probably don’t interpret JavaScript or download images.
