Hi
A couple of questions about this add-on.
1) We are hoping to use this add-on for a Freeform form on an EE1 site which doesn’t feature a name field.
Can we simply omit this from the hidden fields, e.g. only use the following:
<input type=“hidden” name=“spamfreeform_email” value=“email” />
<input type=“hidden” name=“spamfreeform_fields” value=“message” />
2) How best to test this add-on to see if it is working? Are there any test emails/messages to trial the add-on and ensure it is functioning as expected?
Regards,
Cole

Hey Cole - the “name” field isn’t required (although it will improve Akismet’s accuracy if included). To test, the official Akismet method is to submit the phrase “viagra-test-123” as the “name”, but I’m sure if you put that, along with other spamminess, in the message field, it should trigger a spam flag.

Appreciate the super-fast reply Derek.
Have tested against this phrase in the message field and got the bounce back as expected.
Many thanks!
Cole
