Reviews

Complete disconnect between the description and what is there…

DesktopMasters January 11, 2020

I am giving this one star. But in all honestly I was never able to actually use the plugin. It says in the description that you can block up to 5 words.. But you are allowed to block ZERO words. There really is no way to demo the plugin before you buy it. But I thought, what the hell.. I will go see how much it cost.. So when I could not find a link to “Go Pro” in the settings I went to the description. There was a link to codecanyon.. But when you get there.. the page has been taken down. So as best I can guess the plugin has been abandoned

Free version has very limited functionality

The honeypot functionality didn’t stop any spam for me. This plugin can only stop messages in which the spammer manually types something identical to what you specified as forbidden in the settings for each field of your form (which is of course very unprobable to happen). If you want to block messages containing keywords instead of whole phrases (what the developers call “advanced filtering”), you will have to go for the pro version.

From last few days i was getting some manual spam emails by some spammers, but this plugin helped me stopping these by adding spam words list in contact form.
