Definitely need to watch out for any Akismet 'no longer works due to volume' issues that could arise if we use the same key everywhere.</p> <p>- AK </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/akismet-key-id-1#post-16864 Mon, 23 Jun 2008 05:58:25 +0000 sambauers 16864@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>There is no performance difference as far as I know if you use the same key for all your sites. You start hitting restrictions when your total volume gets too high, in which case you might opt for the commercial Akismet license instead. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/akismet-key-id-1#post-16792 Tue, 17 Jun 2008 23:58:47 +0000 chrishajer 16792@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>WordPress.com says this about the keys:</p> <p>"Please use your own API Key and don’t ever share your API it is like a password for you =)"</p> <p>I don't know about advantages or disadvantages for using the same key. I used to use the same key for all sites, but now I get a new key for each site (which is a big pain). I haven't noticed a performance difference one way or the other. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/akismet-key-id-1#post-16778 Mon, 16 Jun 2008 18:43:23 +0000 info@kronis.us 16778@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>re: Akismet Keys.</p> <p>So i have several sites I'm working with that use blog plugins and i was wondering if anyone knows more about the key.</p> <p>I've been using the same API key for all my sites, but is there any advantage or disadvantage to using the same key for mulitple sites... different keys for different clients sites?</p> <p>Does it matter if i just use the same key for everything?</p> <p>thanks, - Aaron - I'm sure other's would like to know too!<br /> Source: Aaron Kronis - SEO Rockstar <a href="http://www.digitalvegetarian.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.digitalvegetarian.com</a> </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/akismet-key-id-1#post-10465 Fri, 24 Aug 2007 14:48:42 +0000 chrishajer 10465@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>RonJRoy, bbPress and Wordpress are not really related, and a wordpress.com login is necessary just for the Akismet key. The login for bbPress does not work at wordpress.com. </p> <p>One thing I always thought was weird though is that the wordpress.com login works for trac.bbpress.org.</p> <p>Glad you got it sorted. Since this is beta software, there are going to be some questions, and there are always people around to help. </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/akismet-key-id-1#post-10452 Fri, 24 Aug 2007 01:57:26 +0000 sambauers 10452@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Did you not see this?</p> <p>From config.php:</p> <pre><code>// Your Akismet Key.

However, bbpress username/password are not accepted and I was directed to open an account with new information before a key was issued. I know this now! </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/akismet-key-id-1#post-10449 Thu, 23 Aug 2007 20:59:25 +0000 benbeltran 10449@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>login to wordpress.com, go to your dashboard, click on profile (or My Account) and you should see "Your wordpress.com API Key is: " followed by the key</p> <p>got it from: <a href="http://faq.wordpress.com/2005/10/19/api-key/" rel="nofollow">http://faq.wordpress.com/2005/10/19/api-key/</a> </p> http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/akismet-key-id-1#post-10443 Thu, 23 Aug 2007 18:09:24 +0000 RonJRoy 10443@http://bbpress.org/forums/ <p>Good day,<br /> Is my bbpress username and password the ticket to get the Akismet id? If so, is worpress.com the site I go to? Tried it and could find nothing. Find it frustrating to have to ask for answers that should not be made so hard to find. I'm sure more difficult situations lie ahead! Thanks...RJ </p>
