Major features in LH Zero Spam include:

No captcha, because spam is not users’ problem
No moderation queues, because spam is not administrators’ problem
Blocks spam registrations & comments with the use of JavaScript
Blocks buddypress spam registrations with the use of JavaScript
Blocks woocommerce spam orders with the use of JavaScript

Frequently Asked Questions

Is JavaScript required for this plugin to work?

Yes, that’s what does the magic and keeps spam bots out.

I keep getting ‘There was a problem processing your comment.’

Be sure JavaScript is enabled and there are no JS errors.

Does this work with multisite?’

Yes it protects from spam wp-register registrations.

Does this work with Buddypress?’

Yes as of version 1.08 this will protect from Buddypress registrations. Note is requires the bp_before_account_details_fields hook, must reputable themes include this hook.

Does this work with Woocommerce?’

Yes as of version 1.10 this will protect from Woocommerce spam order registrations.

What is something does not work?

LH Zero Spam, and all https://lhero.org plugins are made to WordPress standards. Therefore they should work with all well coded plugins and themes. However not all plugins and themes are well coded (and this includes many popular ones).

If something does not work properly, firstly deactivate ALL other plugins and switch to one of the themes that come with core, e.g. twentyfifteen, twentysixteen etc.

If the problem persists please leave a post in the support forum: https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/lh-zero-spam/. I look there regularly and resolve most queries.

What if I need a feature that is not in the plugin?

The plugin itself works perfectly and if you like lightweight unobtrusive solutions it is the way to go
