TL;DR

AI summary of the plugin's readme

This plugin is for WordPress site owners using Contact Form 7, Formidable Forms, or Gravity Forms who rely on the comment blocklist for spam filtering. It solves the problem of the default blocklist's inside-match matching wrongly flagging valid entries and the lack of a moderation queue for form entries marked as spam.
