Controlling or Bypassing Akismet Posts Flagged As Spam?

Hi Guys, another quick question, actually two.

I have one poster that every post he makes gets flagged as spam by akismet. I have all the bypass moderation toggled in his profile / permissions but somehow the settings are getting bypassed.

In profile > identities Yahoo IM and Google Talk are not showing icons in the members info on posts. Twitter, G+, Facebook, YouTube, are all displaying properly. 

Any suggestions?

No, not currently… for some reason, akisment thinks he is a spammer…. currently nothing we can do to override it…   what should be done is it should be reported back to akismet as ham, not spam… unfortunately the admin bar does not yet support this though we have an open ticket to add it…

Yea that’s me.. In the profile > identities section. When i put in my Yahoo IM and Skype identities they don’t show up under my avatar on posts. G+, FB, Twitter, YouTube all display ok. Just skype and yahoo messenger are not displaying. I thought i might have to upload the respective images somewhere in sp-resources..

Thanks again for all your help.. winkEd

what are you putting in there?  as the form says, its not the whole url, but just the account info..

for example, for me, my facebook entry is just MrPapa…

OK, not an important issue, whenever you get a chance to look into it. Just thought you would appreciate a heads up.

Get well soon.. wink

thanks.. feeling bit better – hope a good night sleep gets me over the hurdle… since it occurs here, should be easy to track down…  and now that you mention it, my skype isnt showing either…

hmmm… took me while to find this topic… what does this have to do with akismet?

anyway, figured out why you dont get icons for skype and yahoo im… because there is nothing to link to…  there is no ‘profile’ page for those apps…  so for those two, they only show up in your (or other users) profile…

If you know of proper profile style page to link to for either, just let me know…
