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.

WP PlugIndex currently records Web Ok Honeypot Lite for CF7 version 1.0.0 as active, updated 6mo ago and tested up to WordPress 6.9.
Overview
About this plugin
Web Ok Honeypot Lite adds a simple, effective honeypot field to your Contact Form 7 forms. It catches spam bots by adding a hidden field that real users never see — but bots fill it in automatically, revealing themselves as spam.
Why this plugin?
Zero configuration — no settings page, no database writes. Just add the tag and go.
Lightweight — under 10KB total. No bloat, no upsells, no bundled features you don’t need.
Silent success — bots see a fake “message sent” response, so they never learn to adapt.
Drop-in replacement — uses the same [honeypot] tag as other CF7 honeypot plugins. Switch without editing your forms.
Works great alongside Turnstile/reCAPTCHA — honeypots catch dumb bots, CAPTCHAs catch smart ones.
How it works:
Add [honeypot your-field-name] anywhere in your CF7 form template.
The plugin renders a hidden text input that’s invisible to humans.
Spam bots auto-fill every field they find, including the honeypot.
If the honeypot has a value on submission, the form is silently rejected.
