    Hi, askimet does a great job at blocking post comment spam, but when setting up an SMTP plugin (as host ‘websynthesis’ can’t use main host email address), it shows tonnes of spam contact form submissions, including through modal windows.

    Is there a way to tell askimet and Joyn to work together, to stop all this contact form spam? OR… how can we stop all this contact form spam in normal pages and modals?

    Thanks!

    Hi,

    Not sure about what can be done. Will have to forward to Ed so he can give his opinion.

    If you are using the Contact Form 7 plugin, I’d recommend you look into one of the Captcha plugins, or Kismet – http://contactform7.com/spam-filtering-with-akismet/

    Thanks Ed – the text addition works a charm.
