Anti-spam Reloaded vs Post Comment Notification

This is fork of successful Anti-spam plugin v5.5 written by webvitalii, for more info visit GitHub Fork. From version 5.6 maintained by kudlav. GitHub Anti-spam Reloaded plugin blocks 100% of automatic spam messages in comments section and also blocks all trackbacks.No captcha required. Plugin is simple and easy to use: just install it and it just works. Blocked comments can be stored in the Spam area and converted to regular comments if needed. Anti-spam Reloaded plugin is GDPR compliant and does not store any other user data except of the behaviour mentioned above. Plugin blocks spam only in comments section.. Plugin does not block manual spam (submitted by spammers manually via browser). Compatibility All modern browsers and IE11+ are supported. Anti-spam Reloaded plugin works with disabled JavaScript. Users with disabled JavaScript should manually fill current year before submitting the comment. Server compatibility: WordPress 3.3 – 6.5 PHP 5.6 – 8.2 Doesn’t use jQuery Plugin is incompatible with: Disqus Jetpack Comments AJAX Comment Form bbPress If site has caching plugin enabled and cache is not cleared or if theme does not use ‘comment_form’ action and there is no plugin inputs in comments form – plugin tries to add hidden fields automatically using JavaScript. How does it work? The blocking algorithm is based on 2 methods: ‘invisible js-captcha’ and ‘invisible input trap’ (aka honeypot technique). ‘invisible js-captcha’ The ‘invisible js-captcha’ method is based on fact that bots does not have JavaScript on their user-agents. Extra hidden field is added to comments form. It is the question about the current year. If the user visits site, than this field is answered automatically with JavaScript, is hidden by JavaScript and CSS and invisible for the user. If the spammer will fill year-field incorrectly – the comment will be blocked because it is spam. ‘invisible input trap’ The ‘invisible input trap’ method is based on fact that almost all the bots will fill inputs with name ’email’ or ‘url’. Extra hidden field is added to comments form. This field is hidden for the user and user will not fill it. But this field is visible for the spammer. If the spammer will fill this trap-field with anything – the comment will be blocked because it is spam.

Currently WordPress only sends an email to the email address entered in the Options->General->E-mail address field when any new comment is submitted or that comment is awaiting moderation (depending on what you have selected for the comment moderation options in your installation). For those of us who need more than one email address to be notified, no solution existed. Until now. Comments Notifier was developed to address this problem. Uses: If you have more than one person modding your site , they can now receive emails alerting them that new comments are awaiting moderation. Send general comment notifications to yourself at multiple email addresses and also if any new post or page is created or updated then the email will also work. Use and Configuration Simply enter the email addresses one at a time into the plugin. Validly formatted email addresses are required. You may not add the same address twice. There is no limit on the number of email addresses you can enter, though for the sake of performance, I would recommend that no more than 20 be entered. In the “Post Comment Notification To Multiple User” section you can configure the plugin to send emails only for comments that require notification, as opposed to all comments. If you wish to remove an email address, simply click on the “Remove” button beneath the corresponding email address in the “Current Notification List” section of the admin.
