Enable honeypot spam protection

A honeypot is a field that people never see but bots fill in. When it has a value, Formclick quietly drops the submission. Bots still get a success response, so they don’t try again.

Add it to your form

<input type="checkbox" name="botcheck" class="fc-hp" tabindex="-1" autocomplete="off">

<style>
  .fc-hp { position: absolute; left: -9999px; width: 1px; height: 1px; overflow: hidden; }
</style>

Place it anywhere inside the <form>. All Formclick templates already include it.

What else protects your form

• Spam scoring: messages with link spam or common spam phrases go to the Spam tab instead of your inbox.
• Rate limits: 5 submissions per form, per visitor, every 10 minutes.
• Duplicate detection: the same submission twice within 2 minutes is only saved once.
• Captcha (paid plans): add reCAPTCHA or Cloudflare Turnstile for forms that attract bots.
• Domain restriction (paid plans): only accept submissions from your own websites.

All of this is on for every form, on every plan. See Spam protection.
