Dramatically reduce spam submissions using Honeypot for Craft CMS

The Honeypot plugin for Craft CMS is a lightweight anti-spam solution that works by tricking automated bots into revealing themselves. It does this using a honeypot field—a hidden form field that real users don’t see or interact with, but that bots often fill out automatically.

composer require fostercommerce/craft-honeypot

Common questions.

Why does Honeypot work?

Most bots are designed to fill out all form fields they encounter, assuming that they are required fields. By adding an invisible field, Honeypot exploits this behavior. A human user will never interact with it, but a bot will, allowing the system to detect and filter out spam without needing complex machine learning models or third-party verification services.
