Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

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.
