Mimic Guard

Mimic Guard is an anti-spam plugin for WordPress mail and contact forms. It uses dynamic honeypots, submission time monitoring, and integration with major form plugins to reduce automated bot submissions.

• Honeypot — Detects bots that fill hidden form fields
• Time check — Flags submissions that are unrealistically fast after the form is shown
• Form integration — Works with WPForms, Contact Form 7, comments, and more
• Page caching — Optional AJAX honeypot injection when HTML is cached
• URL filter — Optional blocking when the message body contains http(s) URLs
• Restricted fields — Blocks URL, www, mailto, and @ patterns in name-like fields (not the message body or email inputs)
• Privacy — Optional IP anonymization when logging events
• Interaction check — Optional minimum focus/keyboard activity before submit
• Origin check — Optional blocking when Origin/Referer does not match your site
• Rate limit fingerprint — Optional per-browser counting when rate limiting is on

Configure minimum submission time, token lifetime, log list size, and more from the admin screens.
