Saving spam comments can help you to keep all the comments saved and review them in future if needed. You can easily mark comment as "not spam" if some of the comments have been blocked by mistake. = What is the percentage of spam blocked? = Fortify plugin blocks 100% of automatic spam messages (sent by spam-bots via post requests). Plugin does not block manual spam (submitted by spammers manually via browser). = Incompatible with: = * Disqus * Jetpack Comments * AJAX Comment Form * bbPress = How does Fortify plugin work? = The blocking algorithm is based on "honeypot technique" and the fact that spam bots does not have JavaScript enabled.

Hi, I've noticed that you are going to publish this plugin back to wordpress plugin directory as Fortify.
I've already published this plugin as Anti-spam Reloaded in 2020 with Active installations 3,000+ and 12 5-star ratings.
Do you want to merge those repos and continue to contribute to this project?
It cannot be automatically merged because the different name and mainly readme changes (26 commits ahead, 5 commits behind.
Add options with fallback to defaults if nothing was stored/saved already.
Hi,
I saw that you sold your nice WP plugin "Anti Spam" to CreativeMotion, good for you. Now they called it Titan Anti-spam & Security or something.
But my question is: are you going to keep maintaining the old version v5.5 on here (GitHub)? When I say maintain I mean fixing any possible error with new WP versions or security breaches.
I refuse to use the new updated plugin by CreativeMotion v7.0.2, it is just so overcrowded. So I just want to keep with the old, great and simple Anti Spam v5.5.
Can you please answer my question above? It'd be awesome for the community if you keep the maintenance here.
Thank you in advance.
Every comment that goes into spam generates a 500 server error. This is cause wp_die() defaults to 500. May I suggest the following change for the next update...
Either replace wp_die() by just die(). This defaults to http return 200 or better do something like wp_die( __( $antispam_pre_error_message . $antispam_error_message, 'anti-spam' ), 403 );
. I'm still testing if 403 is better than 200 in terms of spam. Changing from 500 to 200 reduced the amount of spam by 75% (many spam scripts are sending the same comment multiple times if they get a 500).
Ah and if you are already updating... you might change $antispam_pre_error_message into a non-Javascript version. Because you get the message cause your Javascript is disabled.
I use something like:
$url = htmlspecialchars($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']);
$antispam_pre_error_message = "<a href='$url'>back</a>";
...and the back link does work.

Hey,
While checking my website accessibility on WAVE I keep getting "missing form label" error for both text inputs (antspm-q
and antspm-e-email-url-website
). The label tags actually are there, so I guess adding a for
attribute to each will solve the error.
I know the inputs are supposed to be hidden so screen reader should skip them, and I'm not an accessibility expert, but yet, WAVE returns that error over and over, so I'd appreciate if you check it out.
Thanks,
Itamar
