B8 and Flamingo

Ciao @benjaminvandenberg, thank you for being part of those who use CF7-Antispam ??!

Regarding your questions:

• B8 continues to function independently of Flamingo. I’ve designed them to operate separately, with B8 utilizing its own database of individual words, which are stored after emails are sent. It’s important to note that only words and their corresponding spam scores are stored, and no other information that could be linked back to the sender. This means there should be no concerns about GDPR or CCPA compliance from this perspective.
• If you choose not to install Flamingo, you’ll miss out on its user-friendly interface for checking spam emails and understanding why they ended up in the spam folder. However, rest assured that the core antispam functions of CF7-Antispam remain fully operational and effective.

I hope this clarifies things for you! If you have any more questions or need further assistance, please don’t hesitate to ask.

Hi Erik,

Great to hear the B8 uses it’s own database and the usage of Flamingo is not required to let this feature do it’s job.

For the moment I’ll keep Flamingo installed and monitor the spam. Your plugin works great, I must say ??

I have one additional question about your plugin.

Recently, the form-validator of Contact Form 7 requires a recaptha when using a mail-tag in the mail-template. (according to this page)

Is CF7 Antispam compatible with the built in Recaptcha of Contact Form 7?

Kind regards,
Benjamin van den Berg

Thanks again @benjaminvandenberg!

TBH, regarding the email verification, I hadn’t noticed it yet, I plan to release a version soon (work permitting) and i will include this compatibility/enhancement as well.

Thanks for the suggestion!

Hi Erik,

Good to hear that you plan to include this in an updated version of your plugin! Please let me know if you need a tester.

Kind regards,
Benjamin van den Berg

hey @benjaminvandenberg, I just released the first beta of the last version (0.6.0) if you want to try, you can download it here. let me know for any problem or doubt, thank you!

Hi Erik,

Thanks for the heads up ??
This week I will check the beta and report back to you.

Thank you for your efforts!

Benjamin

hey @benjaminvandenberg today I released the v0.6.0 (the one of the beta).

I’ve released multiple betas and the plugin works fine as far as I know, the only minor issue you’ll have to re-enable the antispam from the cf7 integration panel because it doesn’t do it automatically (it will from the next versions cc @gardenboi)
