In reply to: [Akismet Anti-spam: Spam Protection] Allow any comment submitted via Json APIYou could just disable Akismet entirely for comments that you can vouch for in some way by doing this:
remove_action( 'init', array( 'Akismet', 'init' ) );in the

In reply to: [Akismet Anti-spam: Spam Protection] Minimum requirements for AkismetThey match the minimum requirements for the lowest supported version of WordPress. For Akismet 3.1.11, that’s WordPress 3.2, which requires PHP 5.2.4 and MySQL 5.0.

In reply to: [Feed Statistics] PHP7Thanks for reporting; this is fixed as of yesterday in version 4.1.
Correct. Uncheck the 2nd and 3rd checkboxes, and ensure that you’ve turned off comments and pingbacks on each individual post and page that has already been published.

In reply to: [Akismet Anti-spam: Spam Protection] akismet_error, 1458718980 , SQL syntax ÂThis issue is with the method you’re using to export/import, not Akismet specifically. (Akismet just happens to have the first entry in your commentmeta table.)
I would guess that your editor has inserted unwanted characters in your SQL file or that there’s an encoding issue, but I can’t really say.
You are correct that Facebook comments will not use Akismet. If you have disabled the built-in comment options and are not accepting pingbacks/trackbacks, you can safely remove Akismet.
It is fine to continue using the same key.

In reply to: [Akismet Anti-spam: Spam Protection] nginx and migrating from .htaccessI’m not familiar with nginx configuration, but the plain-English explanation of these rules is that only akismet.js, akismet.css, form.js, *.png, and *.gif can be accessed directly by the browser. This prevents hackers from sticking definitely-not-a-hack.php in wp-content/plugins/akismet/ and getting users to load it; when they see akismet/ in the URL, they assume it’s part of Akismet and are more susceptible to the hack.
This post: https://www.tinywp.in/akismet-nginx-rewrite-rules/ is a start, but it only denies access to .php, and not other susceptible types like .html, .php4, etc.
@daniel: Ariele includes its own version of jQuery UI. You should contact the theme author about a fix.
@andrew Tegenkamp: All evidence points towards a bug in Quare. You should contact the theme author.
What theme are you using? Is the editor broken if *just* Akismet is activated? All other reports of this so far have been due to other plugins or themes improperly loading their own version of jQuery or jQueryUI, but the problem doesn’t always appear when the bad plugin is active on its own.

In reply to: [Zia3 CSS JS] Aksimet zia3-css-js = no visual editor in WPA note to the Zia3 author — please use the version of jQuery UI supplied by core. This bug is almost definitely due to including your own version jQuery UI.
While I can’t reproduce it, it’s almost definitely because Zia3-css-js includes its own custom version of jQuery UI, but it is supposed to use the version supplied by WordPress. When Akismet is active and tries to use the proper version, it conflicts and breaks things.
I see you’ve already started a thread in the Zia3 forum; I’ll comment there as well.
Actually, I was wrong, Ultimate CMS needs to be active too. The issue is that Ultimate CMS is loading its own copy of jQuery UI, jQuery UI Widget, and jQuery UI Accordion, all of which WordPress includes in core. So when another plugin loads them properly (like Simple Image Sizes or Akismet does), they interfere with the custom versions in Ultimate CMS.
I’ve posted a comment on a bug report in the Ultimate CMS forum (https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problems-after-upgrading-to-wordpress-45-ultimate-cms?replies=3#post-8341669), but with no reply after two weeks, I’d recommend finding another plugin to replace it.

In reply to: [Ultimate CMS] Problems after Upgrading to WordPress 4.5 – Ultimate CMSThe issue is that Ultimate CMS is including its own versions of jQuery UI, jQuery UI Widget, and jQuery UI Accordion, which core WordPress already makes available. It should list those libraries as dependencies for script.js instead of loading them manually.
