Really Simple Comment Validation

v0.2 · by Ryan McCue

Adds a nonce field to the comment form to deter some comment spammers who bypass the comment form.

About this plugin

Many spammers bypass the comment form and send requests to the WordPress backend directly. This plugin creates a “nonce” field for your comment form, similar to the ones used in the administration backend.

Troubleshooting

RSCV not working? Use the following steps to try and solve the problem.

  1. Make sure <?php do_action('comment_form'); ?> is in your template’s comments.php, inside the <form> tags.
  2. Still not working? Ask on the forums.
