检查是否允许未注册的评论者发表评论

Question

There is a checkbox in WP 'Discussion' settings: Comment author must have a previously approved comment

Is there any way to know whether current commenter is allowed to leave comments in WP through PHP? I need this to call an alert if this user left a comment and it needs to be approved by administrator before appearing on the page.

Used akismet for this:

in functions.php:

    function redirect_after_comment($location)
     {
        if(!akismet_get_user_comments_approved(null,get_comment_author_email(),get_comment_author(),get_comment_author_url())) {
            $newurl = substr($location, 0, strpos($location, "#comment"));
            return $newurl . '?approved=f';
        }
        else return $location;
    }

in output:

if($_GET[ 'approved' ] == 'f') {
        echo '<script>alert("Thanks, your comment will appear soon.")</script>';
    }
