I am receiving lot of spam entries from Russian IPs. How can I fix this, as it seems some kind of bot filling the contact us page query form.

How can I have more protection from spam botsJanuary 17, 2017 at 6:49 pm #20655webmaster@bp.com.kwParticipantThe form has the Honeypot enabled, how can I get this done:
Step 1
Add this field anywhere inside your form HTML<div class="quform-hidden">
This field should be left blank <input type="text" name="field">
</div>
Step 2
Add this code to your form process file (e.g. process.php) at the element confuration section:$honeypot = new Quform_Element('field');
$honeypot->addValidator('honeypot');
$honeypot->setIsHidden(true);
$form->addElement($honeypot);
Thanks

I have created a new test form and removed the captcha, and added the reCAPTCHA, but its giving an error; which I cant figure it.

January 18, 2017 at 8:59 pm #20663webmaster@bp.com.kwParticipantI have already used the CAPTCHA, but since 3 days, some russian ip based bot is spamming the contact us forms, and we are receiving enteries with spams. Currently we have blocked the ip subnet that are from russia.
I am now testing the reCAPTCHA insteaded of the CAPTCHA, but getting the error while submitting
An error occurred, please try again

But if I use the CAPTCHA, it is submited with out any error, and I do receive the emails, and have enteries in the database. But this is what the spammers are over coming with.
And the reCAPTCHA is failing, seems getting cornered.
