Hi @bluepawn,
Sorry to hear that you’ve received spam!
In WPForms Lite, we have a built-in anti-spam option which is enabled by default in the form builder > Settings > General > see screenshot here
We also have integration with Google’s free reCAPTCHA service. In case it helps, here’s a detailed tutorial on how to set up reCAPTCHA in WPForms.
And if you’d prefer not to use reCAPTCHA, we have another anti-spam protection feature, hCaptcha. This is a good option if you’d prefer not to sign up for Google’s reCAPTCHA service. Within your forms, hCaptcha will display a checkbox asking users to prove they’re human (much like Google’s v2 Checkbox reCAPTCHA). We have a detailed guide for setting up hCaptcha.?
Another option you might want to consider is setting up the Akismet anti-spam protection. This option will allow you to integrate?Akismet which is one of the top anti-spam protection plugins on www.remarpro.com to your forms. You should be able to seamlessly set this up by following the instructions here.
Alternatively, you can consider third-party plugins such as WordPress Zero Spam or Spam protection, AntiSpam, FireWall by CleanTalk which work out of the box to protect your forms against spam.
Hope this helps!
