Description
It is a very simple plugin to filter out the spam comments by using the popular technique called “Honeypot”. This is not the 100% solution to every possible spam comment, however I believe that this simple pattern can avoid at least 50% of spams in your comment.
Main Features
- Option to user defined honeypot fields
- Option to record logs
- Option not to save trapped spammed comments to database (Complete removal)
- Option to email domain restriction
- Option to choose trapped spam comments status ( spam or trash )
- Option to block comment with common spam words
- Option to add your own spam words
- Option to block comment if comment content includes any link.
- Option to block comment from IP address
