    Hi, thank you for all you job. Your extension greatly optimizes UX !
    I see some comments that seem legitimate in the Dashboard.
    How can I approve them ?
    How are they classified as spam ?

    Glad you found it useful. Currently, spam is detected using the Honeypot method. Basically the user must have JS enabled & adds a hidden field with a key when a form is submitted. If that key doesn’t match what’s in the DB, then it’s marked spam since many spambots bypass forms & just submit by posting to URLs.

    In the next update, there will be some additional spam detections like checking IPs against known blacklisted IPs.

    Currently, not a way to approve, but that’s a great idea. I’ve added a feature request so you can keep track of the progress: https://github.com/bmarshall511/wordpress-zero-spam/issues/199
