Clean Talk Blocking Form Submission

    We are using CleanTalk spam protection on our website. We are using CiviCRM for managing an extensive membership database with custom forms that create and update CiviCRM contact records, and when logged in members who have permission to submit and update forms they are getting a “Forbidden Clean Talk Anti-Spam” protection. These form are all behind the login and people need to be given special permission to perform these actions, so we are not concerned about spam. How do we turn off this protection for specific pages and forms?

    Hello @rmwatts,

    I analyzed your website requests and found out that some request parameters are transferring incorrectly. Please do the following:

    1. Set the ‘Set cookies’ option to ‘Store data in the website database (alternative mechanism)’ here:
      WordPress Dashboard -> Settings -> Antispam by Cleantalk -> Advanced settings
    2. Clear your website cache and make sure that the website cache lifetime is set as 24 hours or less.

    Speaking of excluding the forms from spam protection:

    1. You can exclude the logged users from the anti-spam protection. To do this, uncheck the Protect logged in users option in the plugin settings.
    2. Or you can folllow this guide to exclude any forms from the anti-spam protection:

    Thank you.

    All the best.

    I’m facing a similar issue at https://puredesire.org/form-testing/. I’m testing a form and it should submit to Wufoo. When I disable the CleanTalk plugin, it works fine. When it’s enabled, the form throws an error.
