Hi John
Can I urge you to please consider writing out the steps and a bit of
information about the "little patching" that you did into the Summer
Reboot Documentation Wiki? An example of an a page about an extension
is at:
http://wiki.radiantcms.org/Copy_and_Move - don't worry about
screenshots. I need to use comments in the next couple of weeks, so I
can create them for you when I get to it.
The Summer Reboot wiki is at: http://wiki.radiantcms.org/Summer_Reboot
As for the Akismet key, you can read more about akismet at their
website: http://akismet.com/ - if I understand it correctly, it will
help you scan the comments that have just been entered and give you back
information about whether it is likely to be spam. You can get an
Akismet key (free for personal use) by signing up for Wordpress -
http://akismet.com/personal/ - a key comprises a key and the URL to
which it applies. You'll get both of these when you sign up.
You need to enter this key into the Radiant configuration so that the
comments extension can use it to probe Akismet if comments are spam.
For changing items in the Radiant config, there's an example here:
http://wiki.radiantcms.org/Customizations_II in the first section.
I looked at the source of the extension and found this:
def akismet
@akismet ||= Akismet.new(Radiant::Config['comments.akismet_key'],
Radiant::Config['comments.akismet_url'])
end I'm guessing you need to set:
Radiant::Config['comments.akismet_key'] and
Radiant::Config['comments.akismet_url'] Hope this helps. Also, hope that
you'll seriously consider documenting the steps on Summer Reboot :)
