This will transparently minify all JavaScript URL's and CSS that are added by

Releasing soon AkoComment 2.2.5

Finally I will soon release Akocomment 2.2.5 (the one which is working on my homepage) with comment tracking among other new functionalities...

Please use the tracker at sourceforge and give me (us) ideas of what kind of functionalities You want to see in it. If You want to avoid the hassle of creating an account or do not know how to, You can also use this thread to submit ideas as comments.

My ideas Are:

1Since
  • Hashcash is not intrusive, user has nothing to do to enter a comment (the cryptographic anti spammer check occur in the background)
  • SecurityImages use captcha, and so force user to enter character he has read in an image
I was thinking since a long time of using a 3rd party authority with is more smarter than me in oder to determine if the comment is a real spam, and I found this:
Akismet Automatic Kismet (Akismet for short) is a collaborative effort to make comment and trackback spam a non-issue and restore innocence to blogging, so you never have to worry about spam again. 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. With Akismet, you're always protected up-to-the-second from the latest dirty tricks of spammers. There's no maintenance, no upgrading, no hassle.
This work as webservice, so code changes are minimal and quite easy to do
2A Plugin system to allow extensions more easily (Plugin can be registered in a linked list or similar) at runtime

Get inspiration from existing commenting systems, or simply be creative!
Please submit ideas fast! I will then assign priority them in the tracker

Akismet4Joomla 1.5.1 for Joomla 1.5

 

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.
Read Akismet site for more details

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

Akismet4Joomla now checking Akismet keys
NEW: check for proper operations, test individually comments, see screenshot below
akismet4joomla.1.5.1.testing.comments.gif

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.
