[Closed] Integration with CleanTalk Anti-spam

BoardBoss · 2021-11-09T05:38:22Z

Greetings - I am completely new to wpForo. During setup, I noticed the message "Akismet is not installed! For an advanced Spam Control please install Akismet antispam plugin, it works well with wpForo Spam Control system. Akismet is already integrated with wpForo. It'll help to filter posts and protect forum against spam attacks." displayed on the 'Antispam' tab in the 'Forum Tools' section. I agree that this message is accurate: I uninstalled Akismet as soon as I installed WordPress, and instead installed CleanTalk Anti-spam. I understand some people love everything by Automattic, whereas I tend to love what works best. So when I read the message mentioned above in the wpForo admin area my first thought was "who cares?" With that said, why would I also need (or want) the wpForo in-built Spam Control enabled if I am using a solution like CleanTalk (or even if I chose to use Akismet)? Thank you in advance for any help or advice.

Also remove this from Wpforo pages. No caching for wpForo.
