Use the WordPress Comment Blocklist feature to protect you from contact form spam submissions.

Compatibility

This plugin is compatible with Ninja Forms, Caldera Forms and WPForms.

Features

  • Not reinventing the wheel since WordPress already has a Comment Blocklist feature.
  • Privacy by Design by using a local blocklist.
  • No external API.

Setup

  • Login to the dashboard and open Settings > Discussion.
  • Scroll down to Disallowed Comment Keys.
  • Enter some bad words, phrases or weblinks that keep bugging you. Choose your blocklist wisely!
  • Contact forms that contain any of these words cannot be submitted anymore and will show an error message.
  • Optional: Modify the error message output in the Theme Customizer.

Fun fact

Spam emails are usually very annoying and affect work – and there is nothing funny about it. But did you know that the term Spam, referring to junk mail, was named after a famous Monty Python sketch?
