Captcha Spam Blocker


Full disclosure: I am the developer. I originally built this plugin for my own projects because I needed a simple and effective way to stop spam. One year after publishing it, I'm leaving this review to confirm it's still running flawlessly on all my sites. It has completely eliminated spam on my forms. It's a "set it and forget it" solution that just works.


Developer's Review: Still My Go-To Plugin After 1 Year

Enhance your site’s security with dynamic CAPTCHA, blocking spam and bot access on forms. GDPR-compliant.

<h4>The proxycheck.io API</h4>
<p>This Plugin can be used without a proxycheck.io API key, but it will be limited to 100 daily queries to the API. To enhance the capabilities, you can obtain a free API key from proxycheck.io, which allows for 1,000 free daily queries, making it suitable for small WordPress sites.</p>
<p>Here’s an overview of the free and paid API options:</p>
<ul>
<li>Without an API key (100 queries/day)</li>
<li>With a free API key (1,000 queries/day – ideal for small sites)</li>
<li>With a paid API key (10,000 to over 10 million queries/day)</li>
</ul>
<p>Your API key can be used across all of your sites and apps, you only need a proxycheck.io plan that fits your overall needs.</p>
<h4>User IP Logging Feature</h4>
<p>Proxy & VPN Blocker allows for local logging of user registration IP addresses. The IP addresses are displayed next to each user in the Users list and on their profile pages, visible to administrators. The Plugin also logs the most recent login IP address for each user, which is also displayed in the User’s list and profile page, with the IP address linked to the proxycheck.io Threats page.</p>
<h4>Caching Plugin Notice</h4>
<p>If you’re using caching plugins (like WP Rocket or WP Super Cache), IP-based page blocking might not function correctly due to static caching. A DONOTCACHEPAGE option is available to help mitigate this issue.</p>
<h4>Privacy & GDPR Compliance</h4>
<p>To check IP addresses, the plugin sends them to the proxycheck.io API. No personally identifiable information (PII) beyond the IP is transmitted. For details, refer to proxycheck.io’s <a href="https://proxycheck.io/privacy" rel="nofollow ugc">privacy notice</a> and <a href="https://proxycheck.io/gdpr" rel="nofollow ugc">GDPR Compliance</a> for further information.</p>
