ChronoForms Spam

aforantman 25 Jun, 2012
We've got a couple of forms on a newly launched site that seem to be getting hit fairly hard with spam. Only just last week did we discover that we needed to add the 'Check Captcha' action to the form, which we've now done. However we're still getting spammed. From what I can see, everything else is as it should be.

Hi,

Did you test it to make sure that the captcha is working as expected ?

Hi Max,

Thanks for your response. All seems to be OK from the front end. I am unable to submit the form without filling in the captcha code on the forms in question. We've used this component fairly prominently, and have never experienced this issue before.

Hi aforantman,

I started to put together this FAQ on spam prevention a few days ago. There might be something in there that will help.
