Blocking responses from outside the country

ma margknox 08 Aug, 2018
The form is being used to send spam messages from overseas. How can I block responses from outside Australia please?
I'm using Joomla 3.8.11 and Chronoforms 5.

Hi margknox,
​
You could perhaps check the user's IP address to see where that originates. There are several suggested ways to do this in this SitePoint tutorial.
​
Equally, you can probably block the spam in ChronoForms using serverside validation.

fyi Admin Tools Pro extension allows blocking entire continents and or specific countries.
​
this will keep your chronoforms safe
