FormThrottle Logger helps reduce spam and repeated form abuse by limiting how many submissions a single IP address can make within a chosen time period for Gravity Forms and Contact Form 7.<\/p>\n\n

Features:\n* Monitors submissions by IP address for Gravity Forms and Contact Form 7\n* Blocks repeat offenders once the configured threshold is reached\n* Logs the IP address, form ID, source type, reason, and timestamp\n* Adds a log screen in the plugin admin menu for reviewing blocked attempts\n* Lets you choose which integrations are protected and configure the threshold and time window<\/p>\n\n

Configuration<\/h3>\n\n

By default, the plugin allows 10 submissions within a 1-hour window. Both Gravity Forms and Contact Form 7 are enabled by default in the \"Apply to\" settings.<\/p>\n\n

To change this:<\/p>\n\n

  1. Open the FormThrottle Logger Settings page from the admin menu.<\/li>\n
  2. Set the submission limit and the time window in hours.<\/li>\n
  3. Select which integrations should be protected.<\/li>\n
  4. Save your changes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
      \n
    1. Upload the plugin files to the \/wp-content\/plugins\/formthrottle-logger\/ directory, or install it directly through the WordPress plugins screen.<\/li>\n
    2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in WordPress.<\/li>\n
    3. Make sure Gravity Forms or Contact Form 7 is installed and active.<\/li>\n
    4. Open the FormThrottle Logger menu in the WordPress admin area.<\/li>\n
    5. Review the \"Restricted IP Logs\" page or open Settings to adjust the submission limit and time window.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n

      Can I change the submission limit?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

      Yes. You can configure the threshold and time window from the FormThrottle Logger Settings page.<\/p><\/dd>\n
