Spam Filter For Elementor Form vs BotBlocker Security – Complete security platform

Tired of spammy SEO pitches, fake marketing offers, and bot submissions flooding your Elementor Pro forms? By filtering only the message field, you can eliminate up to 95% spam submissions. Spam Filter For Elementor Form do that and gives you the control you need to stop them, without relying on external services. This plugin filters the input field of your forms to block submissions containing unwanted words, suspicious URLs, or emails from unauthorized domains. You can block all URLs except those from your domain or specific domains you allow. If someone tries to submit a form with a disallowed link, they’ll see a clear error message asking them to remove it. Here’s the beauty of it: real visitors who want to share something useful will usually say, “I have a link to share, can you contact me so I can send it?” Spam bots, on the other hand, just drop links and hit submit. That’s where this filter stops them. Whether you want to block certain phrases, links, or reject emails from shady domains, this plugin lets you do it easily, right from the WordPress dashboard. Features: Enable or disable filtering for specific or all Elementor Pro forms. Block messages that contain specific words or patterns. Reject any submission containing links—except those from allowed domains. Block or allow email addresses based on domain (whitelist or blocklist mode). Custom error messages shown directly inside the form. No third-party services or APIs—fully local and lightweight. Built exclusively for Elementor Pro forms. Perfect for any site owner who’s fed up with form spam and wants a simple, effective way to stop it. How to Use: Enable Filtering: Go to Elementor → Settings → Contact Form Filter and check the “Enable Spam Filter” option. Target the Right Form: Enter the name of the form you want to filter in the “Form Name” setting. This must match the “Form Name” from your Elementor Pro form settings. Set Blocked Words: Add a list of blocked words (one per line). Any form submission containing these words will be rejected. Filter URLs: Only allow URLs from specific domains. Other links will trigger a validation error. Control Email Domains: Enable email filtering and choose between whitelist or blocklist mode. Add domains or full email addresses to control who can submit the form. Enjoying the Plugin? If you find Spam Filter For Elementor Form helpful, please consider leaving a review on WordPress.org.

BotBlocker Security is a complete security platform that blocks 99% of attacks before WordPress loads. Firewall, bot detection, rate limiting, CAPTCHA, 2FA, analytics, notifications, tools – one plugin replaces your entire security stack: no need for separate firewall, CAPTCHA, 2FA, and anti-spam plugins. No bloat, no monthly fees for core protection. If your site is hit by login brute force, spam comments, fake Googlebots, content scrapers, or XML-RPC floods, you are not alone: bots generate over 47% of all web traffic. Most security plugins react after WordPress boots, wasting CPU and memory on every bad request. BotBlocker stops them at the door – then gives you the analytics, alerts, and tools to understand exactly what it blocked and why. Because BotBlocker intercepts traffic before themes and plugins run, it also shields vulnerabilities in your entire plugin and theme stack. Zero-days in contact form plugins, unpatched slider code, outdated e-commerce extensions – attackers never reach the vulnerable code. BotBlocker is your first and last line of defense, every day. Why site owners switch to BotBlocker Faster than the competition. Runs on early init through three interception layers, before themes and plugins load. Server load drops during attacks instead of spiking. Zero database queries for returning visitors – 11 pre-generated PHP files with SHA-256 integrity, loaded via native include. One plugin, full security stack. Firewall, CAPTCHA, 2FA, anti-spam, rate limiting, bot detection – BotBlocker covers virtually every security need a WordPress site has. Most users uninstall 2-3 separate plugins after switching. PRO adds malware scanning, security headers, speed optimization, and behavioral analysis – still one plugin. Smarter bot detection. 2,899 User-Agent signatures – largest blacklist among WordPress plugins – plus 2,800+ additional bot signatures. 13 header checks including AdBlock detection, incognito mode detection, Canvas/WebGL fingerprinting, and device API verification. Anti-detect scoring with 9 weighted signals catches headless Chrome, Puppeteer, Selenium, and PhantomJS even when they spoof user-agent strings. Smarter CAPTCHA. 9 modes including Silent Auto-Verify – zero clicks for humans, hard wall for bots. Proprietary CAPTCHAs defeat AI-based solvers that crack reCAPTCHA for $2-3 per 1,000. Honest free version. Full firewall, all 9 CAPTCHA modes, full 2FA, full logging, full Multisite, Redis/Memcached, shortcodes, command palette, Telegram alerts, visual analytics, 15 diagnostic tools. No nag screens, no crippled features. Privacy-first. No visitor data leaves your server. GDPR and CCPA compliant out of the box. Works with everything. Cloudflare, WP Rocket, LiteSpeed, WooCommerce, Elementor, multisite, IPv6, PHP 7.4 to 8.5. 🛡️ Core Firewall (Free) Three-Layer Architecture – intercepts traffic at wp-config.php (before WordPress), MU-plugin phase, and main shield. The first layer blocks known threats before WordPress, plugins, or themes even load – saving 30-100ms and 5-20MB RAM per blocked request. This also means BotBlocker shields you from vulnerabilities in other plugins and themes: attackers exploiting a zero-day in a contact form or slider plugin never reach the vulnerable code. Web Application Firewall (WAF) with real-time rule updates via the BotBlocker Threat Defense Feed 2,899 User-Agent signatures – largest blacklist among WordPress plugins – covering Scrapy, Selenium, Puppeteer, PhantomJS, curl, wget, Python, Java, Perl, and SQL injection tools. Plus 2,800+ additional bot signatures. Brute force protection with progressive lockouts – 5 attempts per 15 minutes, escalating bans for repeat offenders Rate Limiting – sliding window velocity tracking per IP. 30 requests/minute triggers CAPTCHA challenge; 50 requests/minute blocks IP for 10 minutes. Subnet-level aggregation catches distributed attacks across /24 IPv4 or /64 IPv6 ranges. Floor protection prevents false positives at low thresholds. Anti-spam for comments, registration, contact forms – spammers blocked before they connect XML-RPC and REST API locked down by default with allowlist for trusted services HTTP method-level hardening – CONNECT and TRACE blocked (XST attack prevention). OPTIONS handled for CORS preflight. Explicit method allowlist. Fake crawler detection via FCrDNS (dual-direction DNS verification), ASN tokens, and published IP ranges – 95% effective, impossible to spoof without controlling the provider’s DNS zone. Multi-resolver DNS fallback.
