Enhance your Gravity Forms to include anti-spam measures originally based on the work of David Walsh's "Zero Spam" technique.
This Gravity Forms add-on blocks spam using a non-obtrusive anti-spam measure and can email a spam report summary.
To get started, all you need to do is activate the plugin!
Gravity Forms Zero Spam is better than the Gravity Forms anti-spam honeypot field. If you’re getting spammed, try this plugin.
reCaptcha is user-hostile! Use this instead! Users don’t need to click stoplights, crosswalks, or bicycles when you use this plugin to stop spam.
If you only want the plugin for specific forms, that’s possible! The plugin adds a simple “Prevent spam using Gravity Forms Zero Spam” setting to each form (requires Gravity Forms 2.5 or newer).
Spam summary report emails are disabled by default. Once enabled, a spam summary that includes the number of entries per-form will be sent via email.
Choose whether you want to be notified after the number of entries reaches a threshold (e.g. 10 spam entries) or after a certain number of days (e.g. every week). If there are no spam entries, no report will be sent.
Requires Gravity Forms.

Yes! When this plugin marks an entry as spam, it prevents processing of any configured notifications and add-on feeds.
Note: When an entry is marked as Spam, it also prevents use of the configured confirmation. Users submitted a entry marked as Spam will see the default Gravity Forms âThanks for contacting us! We will get in touch with you shortly.â confirmation text instead.
Gravity Forms 2.7 added functionality that has similar features to this plugin, but we’re adding additional features soonâkeep this plugin installed!
Yep, you can use this plugin in combination with all other spam-blocking plugins:
Zero Spam will not interfere with the operation of those plugins. It also doesn’t interfere with Gravity Forms’ built-in honeypot functionality.
This works with all Gravity Forms releases after v2.3 (released June 2017).
No. For that, we recommend Ben Marshallâs WordPress Zero Spam plugin.
New form submissions will not be checked using Zero Spam.
To disable by default, from your Dashboard, go to Forms, then Settings, then the Zero Spam tab. Under the “Enable Zero Spam by Default” setting, choose “Disabled”, then save the form.
Once you have saved the setting, to enable for specific forms:
Now that form will use Zero Spam.
Yes.
First, de-activate and re-activate the plugin. Then let us know on the support tab!
You can enable a spam summary report email. This email will be sent to the email address configured in the “Spam Summary Email” setting on the Gravity Forms “Forms” menu, click Settings, then click the Zero Spam tab.
Gravity Forms 2.7 added improved spam blocking in 2.7. Keep this plugin installedâit won’t hurt, and we’re about to add some great new features soon! â¤ď¸ Thanks to Richard Wawrzyniak for the code updates in this release.
