Overview

Gravity Forms Zero Spam is a powerful anti-spam add-on designed to enhance the security of your Gravity Forms by blocking spam submissions using a non-intrusive method. Unlike the traditional honeypot fields or user-unfriendly reCaptcha, this plugin offers a seamless experience for users without requiring any interactive challenges such as identifying stoplights or crosswalks. Simple to activate, it allows you to enable or disable spam protection on a per-form basis, providing flexibility and customization. Additionally, it can send email summaries detailing the number of spam entries, which can be configured to notify you based on threshold numbers or specific time intervals. Created by GravityKit, this essential add-on requires Gravity Forms 2.5 or newer and ensures efficient spam management for your forms.

User sentiment analysis

Users appreciate the WordPress plugin's effective spam filtering capabilities, significantly reducing spam on Gravity Forms while allowing legitimate messages through. It’s praised for its simplicity, ease of installation, and functionality, often eliminating the need for CAPTCHAs and reducing the reliance on other plugins like Akismet. Users find it particularly valuable for managing client sites and high-traffic forms. However, some users report that it can be overly aggressive, occasionally flagging valid submissions as spam, leading to frustration. The performance can vary, with some experiencing high false-positive rates, particularly on forms with attachments. Despite these drawbacks, many still recommend it for its overall efficacy.

I installed this recently on a client site and it works very well! It blocked a lot of spam, and let the good messages through. And I like that I can check and see what was blocked. I hope you keep this going.

Most of the popular spam filters don’t block manual entries. I used to use another plugin that lets you manually choose to block an IP address if you determine that it’s spam, and that was semi useful, but took too much time monitoring. We had a client who was getting 5-10 spam messages a day and we installed this and it stopped. They are still getting legitimate messages but the spam has stopped. We’re still monitoring it to see if this keeps up, but so far this is a miracle worker. Thanks for whoever made this plugin!

This plugin is a bit too agressive. It got rid of all the spam, but also flagged a lot of valid submissions as spam. I’ve now added this plugin to my “evil plugins, never use” list.
