Beskrywing
Blocks spam signups by adding an invisible field to your registration and login forms, and switching its id with the real username or email form field.
When spam bots blindly fill the “required” fake field in, WP will redirect them to an error message and not let them register or login.
No 3rd party service, no intrusive captchas.
Installation
- Upload the plugin files to the /wp-content/plugins/spampot/ directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
- Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress
- That’s it, no more configuration needed.
Kwel-vrae
- Will This Stop Everything?
-
- This honeypot technique works against the lazy “drive by” automated spambots (ie. most of them), but will not be effective against spammers specifically targetting your site nor spammers signing up by hand.
