It employs five different techniques to detect and block unwanted comments: 1. **Nonce Verification** – Ensures that the comment form submission is genuine. 2. **Submission Time Check** – Blocks comments submitted too quickly to prevent bots. 3. **Honeypot Field** – Hidden field that traps automated spam bots. 4. **User Agent Validation** – Detects suspicious User-Agent strings and blocks them. 5. **Forbidden Word Filtering** – Blocks submissions containing words or phrases from a configurable list within the **comment body, email address, or IP address.** 6. **JavaScript-Based Human Interaction Detection** – Sets a verification token when mouse movement, scrolling, or touch interaction is detected. 7. **(Option) Block Non-Japanese Comments** – Blocks comments that do not contain Japanese characters (Hiragana, Katakana, or Han/Kanji), primarily targeting machine- translated or foreign spam. These filters are applied in order: if a comment passes the first check, it proceeds to the second, and so on, until all checks are applied or the comment is blocked. Additional features: * Option to log detected spam in a local log file (up to 1.0 MB). * Optional email notifications when spam is detected. * Easy settings page in the WordPress admin panel. ### Settings The plugin provides the following settings in the WordPress admin panel: * **Enable Spam Protection** – Toggle the spam protection on or off. When disabled, all anti-spam checks are skipped. * **Save Spam Detection Log** – Enable or disable logging of detected spam. Logs are saved in a local file up to 1.0 MB within the WordPress uploads directory. * **Notification Email Address** – Enter an email address to receive notifications when spam is detected. Leave blank to disable email notifications. * **Minimum Submission Time (seconds)** – Set the minimum allowed time between loading the comment form and submitting a comment. Comments submitted faster than this threshold are considered spam. * **Forbidden Words List** – Enter one forbidden word, phrase, or IP address per line. Submissions containing these entries in the comment body, **email address**, or **IP address** will be blocked. **Case is insensitive.** - **Example:** viagra online pharmacy spam@email.com 164.138.205.72 * **Block No Japanese Comments** – If enabled, this becomes the final check: Comments that contain Japanese characters (Hiragana, Katakana, or Kanji) will be automatically accepted after passing other security checks. **Comments without Japanese characters will be blocked.** ### Arbitrary Section This plugin is designed to be lightweight and fast, ensuring minimal impact on site performance while providing robust protection against comment spam. ## Screenshots * [[ * Plugin settings page. * [[ * Example of the spam detection log output. ## Installation 1.

This check measures how long a user takes to fill out the comment form. Bots often submit comments in 1-2 seconds. The default setting blocks submissions faster than** 5 seconds**, but you can adjust this time threshold in the settings. ### How do I enable email notifications? Enter a valid email address in the **Notification Email Address** field. Leave it blank if you do not want to send an email. ### How large can the log file grow? The log file is capped at 1.0 MB. When it exceeds this limit, it will be overwritten with an initial message. ### Where is the log file saved? If logging is enabled, spam attempts are saved to a file named tcsb-log.txt located in a dedicated folder under the WordPress content directory (WP_CONTENT_DIR). The log can be viewed and cleared directly from the plugin’s settings page. ## ‍ವಿಮರ್ಶೆಗಳು‍ ಈ ಪ್ಲಗಿನ್‌ಗೆ ಯಾವುದೇ ವಿಮರ್ಶೆಗಳಿಲ್ಲ. ## Contributors & Developers “Tiny Comment Spam Blocker” is open source software.
