Contact Form with Spam Protection
By Noah (resources)
I needed to drop a simple contact form on a client’s WordPress site and tried to find the “Contact Form” plug-in I’ve used a few times before. As I was searching, I came upon a modified version put together by Douglas Karr.
→ WordPress Contact Form with Spam Protection
This version adds a simple challenge question (the default is 2+2=?) that helps prevent spam. Of course, it isn’t a bulletproof anti-spam measure (but, then again, what is?). However, it’s a step up from nothing and a nice improvement on the original, great plug-in.
I felt compelled to post something about it because it is a small example of how great open source is and how it benefits everyone. Also, I found a new (to me) blog by a fellow Hoosier (even lives in my town). Small world. He just found a new reader.
