Spammed? Please read
I had to create a page about how I am not spamming you..

Contact plug-ins are getting hit hard now and it's between 400-600 spams every hour.

Here is my resolve for those using forms

http://akismet.com/personal/
Provides: Personal Use API Keys

http://www.spamhuntress.com/


Any other suggestions?

{Perhaps there should be another category to address this issue as its large and costly. My servers are working over time on junk mail}

Hi,

Maybe you should check out CAPTCHA & ContactForm Plugin by RGB World, Inc.

Hope this helps.

Hi Andy,

I've installed the newest version of your ContactPage-Plugin but can't find the captcha or any documentation how to activate it.

Could you please give me a hint..

Regards,
Manu

Hi,

The only real thing you need to do, is add in this bit to contact_form.html:

Code:
<p>Please enter the characters you see in the below image:
<%security_image%>

<input type="text" name="SessionID" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="SessionDate" value="<%SessionDate%>" /></p>

Hope that helps

Cheers
