    Hi! I hope you can help. Recently we have a problem with the WP Armour PlugIn. The form does not accept any transmission and displays the ?Spamming or your Javascript is disabled !!“ error to everyone, even humans ??
    So we disabled WP Armour now and make use of hCaptcha, but this does not protect as reliable as the honeypot did.

    BTW, we use WPForms but i tried other plugins instead to narrow down the error – all with the same result.

    Hi,

    In most cases, when the form was working properly before but breaks now, it’s either due to a JavaScript error that is blocking our plugin from functioning correctly or a cache plugin serving old cached files and JavaScript. Could you please confirm this?

    Additionally, if you could create a staging site and enable WP Armour on this form, I could check what the issue is?

    Hello,

    we faced the exact same issue with one site. Cleared the cache of W3Total Cache and even disabled the plugin but the problem remained.

    With a quick look, it seems that the hidden field (.wpa_hidden_field class) is not in the form at all. (!)

    EDIT: upon further investigation, we found the issue. It seems that removing jQuery was causing the issue. WPArmour relies on jQuery in order to add the extra field.

    By the way, maybe this is a good excuse to avoid using jQuery in the WPArmour JS?
    Seem to be just a few lines of code and the result will be more robust and even improve the JS perfomance of the code.

    Thank you!

    Hi,

    Currently we extended the jquery that comes with wordpress. So jquery is needed for our plugin to work.

    Thanks


    True, there is nothing wrong with that.

    But since there is an ongoing debate on jQuery and way to avoid it when not necessary, maybe it would be a nice upgrade for WP Armour to use vanilla JS.

    Cheers and thank you for the good work!

    We’re currently in the process of making a decision, but for the time being, we’re adopting a “wait and see” approach.

    Thank you for the suggestion.

    Hello. I still have the problem described. I use the combination ninja forms, WP rocket and WP amour (Pro version) on more than 50 pages and now unfortunately i also get this error message.

    as soon as i deactivate the function “delay javascript execution” in wp rocket, the form works.
    Alternatively I have to deactivate WP amour, even then it works.

    I have read in other posts that this problem and combination is already known. is there a solution in the meantime?

    i use the latest versions of all plugins.

    Best regards
    Arndt

    @arndtk Try excluding the WP Armour .js (/wp-content/plugins/honeypot/includes/js/wpa.js) from the delayed execution.

    @lyk Many thanks!!
