    Hi there:)

    As a normally very happy user of your plugin “Yoast Comment Hacks,” there is a question I came across just yesterday. Every time I write a comment below one of my own posts they get marked as spam the spam reason being “honeypot”. Do you know how that could have come about?

    Warmly and many thanks in advance
    Maximiliane

    Hi @maximiliane

    Upon checking the features list in the Yoast Comment Hacks plugin, and based on your description of the issue, it looks like the ‘honeypot’ is a spam filter and might be coming from one of your other plugins and not the Yoast Comment Hacks plugin.

    If you were to temporarily deactivate the Yoast Comment Hacks plugin, does the issue resolve itself? Otherwise, it could definitely be an anti-spam filter from another plugin, like what is discussed in this article.

    Good evening:)

    sorry for neglecting this issue and taking up your time. I followed your advice and deactivated the plugin in the staging environment and my comments still get marked as spam. So that can’t have been it. I will next contact my host about this – maybe they have a clue for me.

    Thank you very much for your time and patience here and all the best
    Maximiliane
