Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about KOZ URL-Only Comment Spam

No. Detection runs locally in WordPress. The plugin does not send comment text, URLs, IP addresses, email addresses, referrers or user-agent values to an external service.

The detector targets comments whose visible content consists only of one or more URLs after HTML and invisible spacing are removed. Comments containing ordinary readable text continue through the normal WordPress workflow.

Yes. You can trust same-site links and add approved domains in the plugin settings.

Yes. The timing token contains only the time the page was generated and a signature made with your site's salts. An older cached page simply looks like a slow, human submission. Only implausibly fast submissions are flagged.

The trap field is moved off-screen, marked aria-hidden, removed from the keyboard order and labelled "Leave this field empty".

With the "Reject without saving" action WordPress shows a short message asking the visitor to write a few words of their own, and the comment is not stored.

Yes, product reviews are included by default. You can turn them off in Comment types.

Yes. The administration screen includes a sample test for the content rules, with an optional Website field, that does not persist the sample text.
