I’ve been using this plugin for a few years.
No problems whatsoever.
I am pleased with the functionality of the plugin. Very pleased. Well done.

Akismet already blocked 99% of spam, but the fact that I could review these comments made me nervous. What if a real comment was hiding in those 10.348 blocked comments? I had real FOMO because of this Akismet feature. Your plugin made me do a happy dance just now!

Easy to setup and works great! Human commenters never see the Captcha so it’s unobtrusive. So far no spam has made it through.
Have it running in “Akismet-enhanced mode” and it’s blocked hundreds of spambot comments in just a couple of days. The plugin displays a brief blocked spam count on the admin dashboard to let you know how well it’s working.

This plugin is really doing its job: it blocks spammers robots.

I would say that since I used plugin, the spam comments have reduced. But still getting some. is there something i can do?

After the first installation, the number of captured spam in my Akismet queue was already half of what it had ever been!
I really appreciate the synergy work between this plug-in and Akismet; couldn’t think of a better solution…
After only a few weeks after installation, the content of the “Akismet-flagged” comments queue was less than half of what it had ever been.
I particularly like the fact that only “suspicious” comment posts will ever see the captcha, so that “the regulars” will never have to type anything else but their comments on a post.
Invisible and effective… Perfect!

Love that the captcha is only served to suspicious comments so it’s not annoying to those leaving real comments. Love that the recaptcha option is available so serving captchas actually accomplishes two useful things. Love the ability to customize a lot of the appearance, though a bit more customization might be nice. And I love how very little spam I have to monitor now — as everyone else says, Akismet was doing a good job, but with Conditional Captcha, it’s 100 times better. Have been using these plugins together for several months now and couldn’t be happier ?? Many thanks to the plugin author!

This plugin works like a charm. Highly recommend the combination of Akisment and Conditional Captcha. Thank you!

I wanted to keep comments open without having to review the spam folder–even though Akismet is very good, I don’t like not having another set of eyes on it. Adding this plugin to serve a captcha only when Akismet flags a comment, and delete the comment if the captcha isn’t completed correctly, has reduced my spam to literally zero. I’m incredibly grateful.

Downloaded recently, used the askimet settings and waited a couple of days only to see the amount of spam comments hasn’t changed. Maybe I’m missing something..

Works as described!
What is missing:
* custom text when user fails
* custom text on I am human button
* a way to add newline character in those custom text (so that a nicer output is shown to the users)
* Automatic redirect to original page (ie back to the blog comments) upon failure

Best. Plugin. Ever. Well, I feel like that right now because after about a week of using this no spam comments at all. 1,507 spam comments blocked!
I’ve tried several other plugins that were supposed to accomplish this. By far this is the easiest, most effective and least obtrusive of them all. (And it doesn’t break other parts of my site.)
Really, could not be happier with a plugin like this. Thank you!

1000+ spam comments per day and now zero. Great plugin!

Akismet does a great job of filtering spam comments; however, it still keeps the spam comments in the database. I was getting about 1,000 spam comments per day before I installed Conditional Captcha. I configured Conditional Captcha to immediately delete all comments that failed the captcha test, now I have zero spam comments making it into my database! Good job with this plugin.

I love it, because it sits invisible in the background until the moment one presses the submit button (comment). I use the Priimo Theme and it works great. Thank you very much!

Brilliant plugin! I love that most people won’t have to fill in the captcha, and only suspicious comments are forced to do it. Works great!

I say “nearly perfect” only because nothing is perfect.
I run a pretty busy blog site — with an average of 6,000 or so visitors a day. Akismet was excellent for flagging spam and learned to be nearly 100% accurate. But Akismet only puts the comments in a spam bin which has to be emptied, and we were getting hundreds of spam comments a day by October 2012. I was desperate and tried a number of different plugins that were supposed to solve the problem — some claiming to be the all-in-one solution that would ensure that we would never see spam again, because the plugin would delete them. One boasted that there were “zero false positives,” but I tested it and found that perfectly good comments could get lost with that plugin. (The author got quite upset with me when I pointed this out.)
Then I installed Conditional Captcha and set it to auto-delete spam that did not pass its test. Eight months later, I am still very pleased. We get the occasional spam that is manually submitted. The human spammer will fill out the Captcha, and the comment will end up in our spam bin. But we don’t get more than a dozen or so a month, as opposed to hundreds a day.
Probably the two best things about this solution are
1) our legitimate visitors never have to fill out a CAPTCHA. (I dislike filling out CAPTCHAS!! How about you?) Neither do they have to check a box saying they are not a spammer. ??
2) we do not give control over to a plugin that could block legitimate comments. Any comments that could possibly be legit will land in our spam bin to be manually deleted.
If you have a spam problem, I highly recommend the combination of Akisment and Conditional Captcha.

I tried few captcha plugin before, but without success. When I download Conditional CAPTCHA I get what I want in few clicks. I totally satisfied.
Thanks guys!

I tried a total of three different CAPTCHA plugins and this was by far the best. Look no further – use Conditional CAPTCHA.

Conditional CAPTCHA for WordPress
I give the idea 5 stars, and I haven’t even used it yet.
I have comments, registration and login disabled at my site. But, I have a Postcards plugin that desperately needs a captcha:

I wonder if your plugin could “reach” other plugins that don’t have captchas, in order to add them?
Is it even possible to do this; if so, I would suggest it as a highly useful addition.
Thanks.

A very, very, very highly recommended complement to Akismet. To effectively and fully eliminate WP comment spam with near-zero burden on your readers, you won’t need anything else but Akismet and this plugin.
In fact, Akismet should have included something like this – but we have this plugin’s author that’s done it one better!
This is the perfect solution that will save you a lot of time wading through Akismet’s spam queue for false positives…
(Never make ALL your commenters enter a captcha to avoid spam, do it the smart way with this plugin instead.)
PS – If you have a problem with trackback spam too, check out Simple Trackback Validation.

Simple and very effective, and the option for using Google’s reCAPTCHA is great. Thank you!

More than 700 spam comments have been automatically discarded by Conditional CAPTCHA in a few week! It does a great job, definitely.
