About WP Armour Extended
Form spam buries the messages from real customers
You open your inbox and out of forty form notifications, thirty-nine are links to casinos or absurd offers. The problem is not just the annoyance: with that much noise, you end up taking too long to answer the one message that was an actual customer. And the usual fix, adding a captcha, shifts the problem to the visitor, who abandons the form just when they wanted to contact you or sign up.
WP Armour Extended makes the bots pass the test, not your visitors
WP Armour Extended is a honeypot-style anti-spam plugin: it blocks bot submissions on comments, registrations, forums and forms without the person typing having to do anything. There is no captcha, no questions and no puzzles. The visitor fills in the form as usual and it is the bot that has to get past the filter.
It does not need an elaborate setup: you activate it and it starts protecting your forms, comments and registrations. For a small business with nobody dedicated to reviewing messages, that means less time separating the genuine from the junk.
Submission log and IP blocking to see what they try to sneak in
The plugin can keep a record of what spammers try to submit. That is useful for two reasons: you confirm that spam is being blocked and not real users, and you see what kind of junk your site receives.
In addition, if the same IP keeps insisting with several submissions, you can block it. That way those bots stop using up your hosting bandwidth and resources with repeated attempts.
Works with the most common forms and plugins
It works without settings with most popular forms. Among them:
- WordPress comments and user registration.
- Contact Form 7, Gravity Forms, WPForms, Ninja Forms, Fluent Forms, Formidable Forms, Everest Forms, Caldera Forms, Sure Forms and WS Form.
- Elementor Form, Divi, Bricks Builder, Enfold and Jet Form Builder.
- WooCommerce, Easy Digital Downloads, BuddyPress, BuddyBoss, bbPress, Ultimate Member and S2Member.
- Mailchimp for WP (MC4WP), MailPoet, Toolset Forms, YITH Easy Login & Register Popup and My Login.
If you use a form that is not on the list, run a test submission before assuming it is protected.
A honeypot does not replace moderation or site security
It is designed against automated bots. What it solves and what you will have to cover another way:
- Solves: automated spam submissions on comments, registrations, forums and compatible forms.
- Solves: protection with no captcha or questions for the visitor.
- Solves: a log of what is attempted and blocking of IPs with repeated submissions.
- You cover it: a junk message written by hand by a person, which requires manual moderation of comments or registrations.
- You cover it with another plugin: protection against malware, intrusions or attacks on the login panel, because this is an anti-spam filter for forms, not a firewall or a scanner.
- You check it: any forms that are not among the compatible ones.
