MentoGuard protects your WordPress forms from spam bots using behavioral analysis and server-side token verification — completely GDPR-compliant with no data sent to Google or any third party.
Currently supports Contact Form 7, with more form builders coming in future releases.
<h4>How It Works</h4>
MentoGuard uses three independent protection layers:
<ol>
<li>Signed token — every form load generates a one-time server-side token. Bots submitting without loading the page are instantly blocked.</li>
<li>Page time check — measures time between page load and submission entirely server-side. Bots submit in milliseconds; real users take seconds.</li>
<li>Behavioral score — JavaScript tracks how the visitor interacts with the form (timing, mouse movement, keyboard vs paste, field order) and assigns a spam score.</li>
</ol>
<h4>Key Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>GDPR compliant — zero external servers, zero Google, zero third parties</li>
<li>Contact Form 7 native tag support — place [mentoguard] inside your CF7 form editor</li>
<li>Scripts load only on pages with active forms — zero SEO or page speed impact on other pages</li>
<li>Spam log dashboard — see every blocked submission with IP, score, and signals</li>
<li>Top Spammers page — aggregate view of worst offenders with one-click blacklisting</li>
<li>IP Blacklist — manually block IPs or CIDR ranges</li>
<li>Test Mode — see live spam scores without blocking anyone</li>
<li>Debug Log — step-by-step validation log for diagnosing issues</li>
<li>Preset modes — Relaxed, Balanced, Strict</li>
<li>Page time protection — configurable minimum time in seconds or milliseconds</li>
<li>Fully adjustable — enable/disable each signal, adjust point values</li>
<li>No tracking, no upsells, no phone-home</li>
</ul>
<h4>Privacy</h4>
MentoGuard reads your local WordPress database only. It logs the IP address and behavioral score of blocked submissions. No data is sent to any external server at any time.
<h4>Usage with Contact Form 7</h4>
Add [mentoguard] inside your CF7 form editor, before the submit button:
[text* your-name] 
[email* your-email] 
[mentoguard] 
[submit “Send”]

ChaLess protects every form on your WordPress site from bots and spam — completely invisibly. Real users never see a puzzle, a checkbox, or a CAPTCHA. Bots are detected and blocked silently before the form ever submits.
How it works:
<ul>
<li>ChaLess watches how each visitor fills in your forms — timing, speed, and a hidden honeypot field</li>
<li>Real humans are let through instantly with no interruption</li>
<li>Bots are blocked silently before the form sends</li>
<li>Every decision (allowed / challenged / blocked) is logged in your ChaLess dashboard</li>
</ul>
Why no CAPTCHA?
CAPTCHAs frustrate real users and reduce form completions. ChaLess works in the background — your visitors never know it is there.
What you need:
A free account and a site key. Sign up at <a href="https://silent-shield-saa-s.replit.app/signup" rel="nofollow ugc">https://silent-shield-saa-s.replit.app/signup</a>.
<h3>External Services</h3>
This plugin connects to the ChaLess bot-detection service at silent-shield-saa-s.replit.app to load the protection script and process form submissions.
What is sent and when:
When a visitor submits a form on your site, the following data is sent to the ChaLess API:
<ul>
<li>Time spent on the page before submitting</li>
<li>Time taken to fill in the form</li>
<li>Whether a hidden honeypot field was triggered</li>
<li>The visitor’s browser user-agent string</li>
<li>A session token generated locally in the browser</li>
</ul>
No personally identifiable information (name, email, or form content) is ever sent to the service. Data is only transmitted at the moment of form submission.
