  Hello,
  For wordpress.com and using akismet, (how) do I enter the Akismet API Key?
  Thanks : )

  NB: akismet widget is already installed and activated (I reconfirm, not akismet plugin, this is wordpress.com, not wp.org)

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Spam handling is taken care for us by the good folk at WordPress.com so we don’t have to bother ourselves worrying about how to add Akismet API key. :-)

  Because Akismet is already the default spam handler on WPcom. You needn’t do anything extra to activate it.
