    What’s the best way to block applications? We’re getting hundreds of submissions from India. Does the plugin integrate with Akismet? The reCAPTCHA is not helping.

    Thank you ….. Rick

    Hi

    Currently, WP Job Openings supports reCAPTCHA v2 only, which is very effective against spambots. WP Job Openings PRO supports reCAPTCHA v3 also, which validates the user by a score based on the user actions on your site. In future versions of WP Job Openings, you can expect more spam protection methods.

    If you are interested in limiting the job-related content by a specific country, you can use the iQ Block Country plugin.

    WP Job Openings records every applicant’s IP address. You can view the same from the application edit screen. So if you are using any security plugin and if this supports blocking by IP address, then you can use the same too.

    Hi

    We have released WP Job Openings version 3.2.0, which adds Akismet Anti-Spam Protection. When the Akismet plugin is activated, you have to enable this option from WP Job Openings Form General Settings. Please try it and let us know your feedback.
