Increased number of spam

arvendal 22 Apr, 2018

Hello,
All these years I have used Chronoforms there has been very little problem of recieving spam. But lately more and more spam comes through. I believe it must be some kind of robots behind this. What can be done to stop this? I use the basic captcha function.
Best regards

Hi arvendal,

The Basic Captcha will not protect you from human spammers - switching to the Google ReCaptcha would block more. You might also want to add server-side validation. Please check this FAQ.

Thanks! Would the Honey Pot prevent spambots better than basic captcha?

Hi arvendal,

IMHO Yes
