How To Disable Completely AntiSpam Tools?

I need to get rid of the antispam tools from my Dolphin 7 install.

Almost all content submissions are being flagged as spam since I upgraded from 7.0.3 to 7.0.7 the other day. What is worse is that even turning off the antispam is NOT stopping Akismet or the popups in content submission windows.

I want to know how to change the code to remove these tools entirely.

If necessary I will pay for assistance.

HI,

Open advanced settings - security - unselect - Enable Akismet, remove the api key, and unselect last two option. it should work

so much to do....

Yes, you'd tthink that'd work!

A short time ago I actually disabled the antispam.php page by renaming it.

I cleared all caches.

I turned off all cacheing options within Dolphin

I had already removed my Akismet key and made the changes you suggested.

In order to redo the changes you suggested I re-enabled the antispam.php page so that I could see the anti spam controls. Now the Akismet page shows as follows:

Your Akismet key is not specified - get WordPress API key
All the options are in red as disabled: DNS and URI as well as Akismet.
I thought, OK, lets try an article. I added an article as a user and got the refusal to save because of spam message once again. 'sorry it looks as though you are trying to submit spam'
I do not have a spam problem but THIS is a problem as it costs me users and time.
Any ideas?
By the way I am happy to allow paid access to an expert to have a look at what is going wrong and rectify it, before I roll back to 7.0.3 again - which, for me, worked perfectly. ;)
