How to integrate Akismet Privacy Policies plugin?

  • Dear Watson experts,

    I would like to install the Akismet Privacy Policies plugin:

    Akismet Privacy Policies


    But the hint text is not displayed in the frontend. I read, that the following code must be inserted manualy in the theme within the comment form <form> … </ form>
    <? php do_action (‘akismet_privacy_policies’); ?>

    But I cannot find this. The file comments.php does not include <form> … </ form>

    Who can help me? Many thanks!
    Alexandra

  • Hey there, Alexandra 👋

    So that plugin is actually for self-hosted WordPress.org websites, not WordPress.com. If you want to use plugins on this platform I believe you need to actually upgrade to a Business plan.

    Sorry about that! You might want to actually reach out to the WordPress.com staff and see if they can help you stop that comment spam — they’ll have a better idea of what’s available on that side of things.

    Have a wonderful weekend!

  • Hi scottrrollo,

    I have self-hosted website (outside of WordPress.org and WordPress.com). Do you know where the code has to be inserted? Thanks a lot!

    Best regards
    Alexandra

    This is a WordPress.com forum. Who are you hosted with? Would you please share a link to your website?

    Also, if you’re using a self-hosted version of one of our themes, please do email us at support[at]thethemefoundry.com instead of here 😀
