Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20
How about a honeypot feature…. on other CMS systems I’ve found this to be the most effective by far….

The companion plugin pap_contact_cleaner does that… sort of. It adds fake inputs which are hidden to humans. Since bots are greedy, if the hidden fields contain anything, the message can be discarded.
But going forward, if anyone wanted to build a different type of honypot module to run alongside ZCR, that’d be ace. The core plugin is going to stick to being a platform for building relationships with customers I think. Bells and whistles such as this can then be built on the scaffolding.

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20
I’m still trying to figure out if they are bots or humans. I received another 2 emails (and postmaster registrations) since my last post here.

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20
pap_contact_cleaner – yeah it stopped working for me… maybe if I take a look at the code I could try change it so that the hidden field name is customisable …. or I could break the internet :)

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20
Does the version for 4.5.x work with the zem_contact_lang we already have or because of the textpack we do not need that any more?

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20
Hello everybody.
I need something like that for my site.
How can I add to my zem_contact module a checkbox to make the users accept all the legal stuff?
And then, can you tell me if must I store all the cookies to prove that the users have read all the docs?
This things are drivin’ me crazy :(

I don’t know what lawyers force you to do in your/your client’s part of the world. In Germany you are obliged to store your business emails for x years. In the emails that zcr forms send out there’s also a line printed for the legal stuff checkbox (something like “Legal stuff: Yes”). You make the checkbox mandatory with required="1" and only those who ticked it will be able to submit the form: <txp:zem_contact_checkbox label="Legal stuff accepted" required="1" /> Is that what you wanted to know?

No, it does not. Disable it if using v4.5.0.0. Just copy out the strings that zem_contact_lang uses for your language, and stick them in a Textpack. You can copy the English one from the plugin .php file itself and just change the language designator and translation strings. Send the Textpack to me and I’ll include it in the plugin.

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20
Maybe reCAPTCHA?
There is also a textpattern plugin for reCHAPTCHA (older version).

Re: zem_contact_reborn 4.0.3.20
Assuming spammers want to send links, you could use use adi_contact to block them.
