Honeypot doesn’t work

    I still get spam with honeypot enabled. I can only assume this is because bots have figured out the honeypot field is called generically “wpforms[hp]”. I saw a form plugin which allowed you to change the honeypot field name, if only I remembered which. Or, is honeypot old news now?

    Hey autocrash,

    The honeypot should help with spam prevention, however it does not protect you against spamming by human visitors. We recommend also using Google’s reCAPTCHA service, which we have built in integration with. In case it helps, we have a detailed tutorial on how to set up reCAPTCHA in WPForms.

    I hope this helps ??
