Akismet plugin for Spam Karma 2
There is a new Akismet plugin for Spam Karma 2 that is currently in beta that sounds like a great idea where SK2 is still used to determine if the comment is Ham or Spam but if it needs assistance instead of sending a comment to moderation it will then check with Akismet but even if it doesn’t it will submit the comment to Akismet as either Ham or Spam to help build the central database so classifciation at Akismet can be improved over time.
Sounds great, eh? But Matt’s comment on the Akismet plugin page states that it is no good to just send comment marked as Ham or Spam back to Akismet unless they had been previously classified incorrectly by Akismet itself so that means any classifications made locally by SK2 won’t be fed back to Akismet. It is almost like Akismet is setup to become the only spam detection service available and be exclusive to other systems like SK2 and well that just doesn’t sit well with me so I’ll just keep using SK2 on it’s own as it is yet to give me any problems.
What I want to do on my blog, is every few hours take the oldest post and move it to the
front of the queue, all automatically. Anyone know if there is a plugin that can do this or
a simple way to set up another plugin to do this (use my own feed perhaps)?
Thanks.
