Forms App Request: Automatic Spam Deletion
The Forms App + Akismet is doing a bang up job of keeping the vast majority of spam from bugging my clients. However, one client's SPAM bucket in the Forms App filled up with 45 pages and counting of spammy form submissions in just a few months!
To ease the task of managing the spam backlog for Forms, Iām requesting an automatic spam deletion interval setting like we have for spammy comments in Blog. The same options ā Never, 1 day, 7 days, 14 days, etc. ā would be perfect.
Good suggestion - thanks!
Plus one for this. Abby - in the short term, if you have access to phpMyAdmin you can delete them quickly from the 'perch2_forms_responses' table. All the entries you want to delete have the field 'responseSpam' set to 1. We're doing this on all our forms, weekly, at the moment.
Thanks, Graham! Good to know it's a fairly simple delete from the db side, if necessary.
