Akismet plus HubSpot Form – other spam-filter ideas?

[ad_1]

Hi,

I am trying to filter spam/cut it down based on a raw HTML HubSpot form we have in WordPress. We bought Akismet based on a web dev recommendation, but can’t apply the functionality to the HubSpot form. I can’t switch to something like WPForms/GravityForms because of price so I’m looking for an easier way to filter out spam.

Right now with the HubSpot form we have captcha enabled and I cannot ban spam by specific keyword, IP, or email address itself, I can only ban domain but even that causes issues for some of our smaller customers to fill out any forms on the site. Any recommendations or ideas people have used as work arounds?

    You can if you code against the Akismet API instead of looking for a plugin to do it.
