I created custom post type ‘RSVP’
it works all right, no problem. The system includes a form via frontend with the function acf_form for confirmation from the guests who will be attending the wedding. Since ACF has captcha default (and I do not really like) I wanted to integrate the technique honeypot to prevent spam as possible. Or add a blank field to my form, and snap the mistake of spam in this case is filled by a bot.
I can block the sending of the form, but also creates an entry in the db with the title and empty fields.
From what I understand, the data that are entered are ignored (in fact, all the fields are empty acf) but I do not want that item is created. Why is spam! I will not fill the db RSVP empty.
I do not think the problem is the theme or plugin, as plugin (except ACF) I have not, and the subject does not create conflicts (the custom made).
I think the error is in the use of as healthy control spam in my functions.php file
My file template for acf_form is this:
acf_form(array(
'post_id' => 'new_post',
'field_groups' => array(
'group_56ab8c95249f9'
),
'new_post' => array(
'post_type' => 'rsvp',
'post_status' => 'pending'
),
'html_after_fields' => '<input class="form-control col-xs-12 guest_user_form" tabindex="-1" type="text" id="guest_user" name="guest_user_rsvp" autocomplete="off">',
'fields' => array(
'field_56ab8cbab11f5',
'field_56ad313d73887',
'field_56ad0de452c1c',
'field_56ad06220e59f',
'field_56ad1215d1217',
'field_56ad2e342039d',
'field_56ad34274f7ee',
'field_56ad34a34f7f0',
'field_56ad34ce4f7f1'
),
'return' => '#rsvp_success',
'field_el' => 'div',
'uploader' => 'basic',
'submit_value' => __('SUBMIT','italian-wedding-day'),
));
my functions.php
// CHECK PRE SAVE POST ACF
function honeypot( $post_id ) {
if(!empty($_POST['guest_user_rsvp'])){
die("You spammer!");
}
}
add_filter('acf/pre_save_post' , 'honeypot', 10, 1 );
or tried to use even the action pre_save but my proble persists
// CHECK PRE SAVE POST ACF
function honeypot( $post_id ) {
if(!empty($_POST['guest_user_rsvp'])){
die("You spammer!");
}
}
add_action('acf/save_post' , 'honeypot', 1 );
