Hi there,
What is the best practice to avoid Spam in an EME form.
In my case, it is the form, where it is implemented like [ emefs_submit_event_form ].Thank you in advance and best regards,
MarkusI already use the wordpress nonce as initial protection. Further protection: use the captcha and/or (recommended) only allow registered people to enter new events.
Both options in Events Made Easy/Settings/General options/Use captcha for forms? seem to have no impact on this kind of form, am I right?
1. Add anti-spam honeypot field for forms?
2. Check this option if you want to use a captcha on the booking/cancel/membership forms, to thwart spammers a bit.Ok, I found the Captcha option in the “EME Frontend Submit” Plugin (Settings/EME Frontend Submit/Use captcha? -> Yes).
Default it the form now says “Error: captcha required in settings, but not used in the form template”.
I have to check, how to get rid of this.
I found:
The form used will need “EMEFS::field(‘captcha’);” in it (see the provided template examples), otherwise it will never get submitted.But now I have to check, how to do this.
Best regards, Markus
