Stop Referrer Spam

I's cluttered with Spam Referrer, and then tried this plugin with some doubt in mind though. :)

But found it's working like a charm.

Thank you for the effort. <3 Keep updating and fixing things. Good luck.

Worked like a charm

If you see referral spam in your analytics and would like to block it, this plugin is for you.

<p>Non-technical summary: Track incoming referrer and write it to any hidden form field with the identifier “referrer” (this can be created in Contact Form 7, for example; see below). Also if the WordPress site redirects from HTTP to HTTPS, this plugin also overrides the redirect to add the referrer to the https URL.</p>
<p>Technical details: This plugin runs client-side JavaScript in every page in HEAD and if there isn’t a session cookie with the name “referrer”, then it writes a session cookie with the name “referrer” and the value of either document.referrer, or if that’s empty, the URL-encoded value of window.location.href. There is another client-side JavaScript in every page before  which writes the value of the “referrer” cookie to any INPUT with the ID “referrer”, if it exists.</p>
<p>When integrating with Contact Form 7, add a hidden input field such as the following:</p>
<pre><code>[hidden referrer id:referrer]
</code></pre>
<p>And then add to the Mail’s Message Body:</p>
<pre><code>Referrer: [referrer]
</code></pre>
<p>If you’re just integrating this with HTML, just add this to any form:</p>
<pre><code><input type="hidden" id="referrer" name="referrer" />
</code></pre>
