False advertising

November 17, 2021
Description says: Supports block IP address by country or only allow IP addresses in a country. Upon install, plugin says: This feature only available Pro version So don't advertise a paid feature that's not in your fee plugin here, without such a disclaimer.

Excellent Tool To Fight Spam

September 24, 2021
This plugin is an excellent easy tool to fight spam and scam website form messages. My clients were getting all types of messages trying to trick them into scams, and it wasted so much of our time dealing with it. Now we can stop them and it feels so good to have this stress and hassle gone. If you have a website contact form, this plugin is a requirement.

Helpful Developers!

Was seeking advice about the plugin, and support was swift to respond and concretely give me the information to make my decision. With the usage of VPN, and other external applications users have nowadays it's really a hard thing to combat, but plugins like this can be a piece of the puzzle to set yourself up with a proper solution for your GravityForms on your website.

Great Support and an essential plugin

March 4, 2020
This plugin has saved us considerable time with fending off hackers and spammers. our form entries are filled with legit submissions instead of junk ones. Support got back to me within hours and stayed with me until the issue was resolved (my db was not set to the proper encoding) and I was satisfied. 5 stars for sure.

Needs more work

May 2, 2018
This takes quite some time to set it all up with all the keywords that should trigger an error, but at the end turns out to be totally useless. I've got a blacklist applied on the message body field. I've got viag*a keyword set as one of the many keywords that should not be allowed in the text, case-insensitive and to 'contain' and I still get messages containing viag*a in the message body. If I can suggest, take a good look at the native wordpress comment blacklist. This is a solution that really works, unfortunately not with Gravity Forms. Your plugin would be a must-have if ontly it worked.

Exactly what I was looking for!

This is a nice and flexible way to whitelist or blacklist certain content in specific Gravity Forms fields. I set it up to stop all the SEO/marketing consultant spam on my clients' sites. I installed v1.0 and it did have a problem that broke my version of jQuery. Line 12 uses the deprecated .live() method. If you update that to .on() you should be good to go. Hopefully the developer will get that fixed because this is otherwise a very useful plugin.
