• Setting up a new site and got the inevitable boatload of spam comments and decided to start using akismet plugin – got ther API code – all set…. except I cannot delete comments, mark them as span not even move them to trash – deactivated akismet and it is the same – sometimes it shows the comments as moved to spam but when I refresh the comment admin page they re-appear right back in the pending approval list…..

    Any odeas fellow WP’ers?

  • Have you tried:

    – deactivating all plugins to see if this resolves the problem. If this works, re-activate the plugins one by one until you find the problematic plugin(s).

    – switching to the Twenty Eleven theme to rule out any theme-specific problems.

    resetting the plugins folder by FTP or PhpMyAdmin. Sometimes, an apparently inactive plugin can still cause problems.

    – re-uploading the wp-admin and wp-includes folders from a fresh download of WordPress.
