ZeroBounce Email Verification & Validation


I have tested this plugin on several of my personal and business websites, it's awesome. No more spam and fake signups. Service pricing is also decent. Recommended.


Excellent in blocking SPAM


You have a problem with NF form validation. It detects html fields that contains emails (eg mailto links) as email fields and validates those.



if (!empty($value) && is_string($value) && preg_match('/@.+\./', $value) && !str_contains($value, "\n") && !str_contains($value, '\n')) {// rest of the code}



Your approach needs to be changed to:



if (!empty($value) && is_string($value) && preg_match('/@.+\./', $value) && !preg_match('/mailto:/i', $value)) {  $ninjaForm = new Zerobounce_Email_Validator_Form_Public('ninjaforms', $form_data['id']);   // rest of the code}



This should be safer to validate only email addresses (or use a better regex).
