Problems with spam blocking in WP Armour after WPForms 1.8.5.2 update

Hello,

I noticed that after today’s update to the WPForms 1.8.5.2 plugin, there has been a dramatic increase in form spam. The WP Armour (2.1.6) settings have not been changed. To try to stop the spam, I updated the “Honey Pot Field Name” in WP Armour, but it doesn’t help.

At the same time, sites where the WPForms plugin version is lower than 1.8.5.2, i.e. where WPForms has not been updated today, spam is successfully blocked by WP Armour.

I’m seeing dozens of spam messages from sites where WPForms was updated to 1.8.5.2 today.

I’ve been using WP Armour for several years on almost 10 sites and I can say that WP Armour is a great plugin that blocks spam well. I even modestly support the author of the plugin on Patreon.

It seems to me that maybe the new WPForms 1.8.5.2 version is interfering with WP Armour in some way.

I would be very grateful for an answer. Thanks!
