Akismet anti-comment spam service

Please note that in order to use this class, you must have a vaild WordPress API key. They are free for non/small-profit types and getting one will only take a couple of minutes.
For commercial use, please visit the Akismet commercial licensing page.
Please be aware that this class is PHP5 only. Attempts to run it under PHP4 will most likely fail.
See the Akismet class documentation page linked to below for usage information.
The Akismet PHP5 Class
This class takes the functionality from the Akismet WordPress plugin written by Matt Mullenweg and allows it to be integrated into any PHP5 application or website.
The original plugin is available on the Akismet website.
$akismet = new Akismet('http://www.example.com/blog/', 'aoeu1aoue'); $akismet->setCommentAuthor($name); $akismet->setCommentAuthorEmail($email); $akismet->setCommentAuthorURL($url); $akismet->setCommentContent($comment); $akismet->setPermalink('http://www.example.com/blog/alex/someurl/');
if($akismet->isCommentSpam()) // store the comment but mark it as spam (in case of a mis-diagnosis) else // store the comment normally
Optionally you may wish to check if your WordPress API key is valid as in the example below.
$akismet = new Akismet('http://www.example.com/blog/', 'aoeu1aoue');
if($akismet->isKeyValid()) { // api key is okay } else { // api key is invalid }
