Blocking spammy values

  • Hi there,

    We’re using this plugin to collect form submissions from one of our Contact Form 7 form (via the “.wpcf7-form, .submitting” selector) and send them to our HubSpot account.

    Everything is generally working correctly but we noticed that it’s not taking our anti-spam rules into account.

    For example, a bot keeps submitting spam entries with “[email protected]” in the email field, so we added that email address to wp-admin > Discussion > “Disallowed Comment Keys” which successfully marks it as a spam entry in Contact Form 7 but isn’t preventing it from being sent to our HubSpot account.

    Is there a way to prevent the plugin from sending the form entries to Hubspot if certain values are present? We would ideally like it to reference the existing “Disallowed Comment Keys” list so that it matches Contact Form 7’s validation, but we could also use a separate list somewhere including a PHP hook.

    Hi @sitebolts Thanks for your message,

    You would need to prevent the form submission or;

    create a workflow on HubSpot that delete contacts matching a criteria ( which unfortunately is not available on a free tier) or;

    use a third party cleaning integration that automates this or do it manually by creating a active list that matches all contacts with a certain filter and then you can delete those contacts

    Best regards
