Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Synth Antispam

No. With either one missing it attaches no comment hooks, so there is no code path that could contact the service about a comment, and comments are handled by WordPress and your own comment rules exactly as they would be with the plugin absent. The two exceptions are buttons you press yourself on the settings screen — Get a site key and Test connection — and each sends a single request because that is what pressing it means. Neither carries anything about a comment or a commenter, and neither is ever triggered on its own.
Never. It does not delete a comment and does not move one to Trash. A comment it marks as spam goes to the Spam folder and stays there until you empty that folder yourself; WordPress's own scheduled cleanup does not empty the Spam folder, so there is no deadline after which a mistake becomes unrecoverable.
Yes — set Moderation mode to Strict on the settings screen, and the same comments go to the moderation queue instead of the Spam folder.
visitor never waits on an outage) or hold it for review. The verdict simply never arrives, and no other behaviour changes.
The service stops answering new checks for your site until the period resets. Nothing in the plugin
state, at any usage level. Comments meanwhile follow "When the monthly check quota is used up": returned untouched to your site's own decision (the default), or held until the quota resets.
It stays. Deleting the plugin removes everything else it stored here — its settings, the verdicts recorded against your comments, its scheduled task, its local secret value — but the site key is left in place, so installing the plugin again carries straight on with the same key and the same monthly allowance of checks. That is deliberate: the key is stored only on your site, the service keeps a one-way hash of it and cannot hand it back, so discarding it would cost you the checks attached to it and there would be no way to recover them. If you would rather leave nothing behind, tick Delete the site key when the plugin is deleted on the settings screen before you delete the plugin. There is no way back from that: you can ask for a new key afterwards, but it starts from nothing. On multisite the network-level key is a separate stored value, and the settings screen does not write it. A network administrator who wants it gone runs this before deleting the plugin: wp site option patch insert synth_wp_settings purge_on_uninstall 1 (insert and not update: the network value has no such setting in it to begin with, and WP-CLI's patch update refuses a key that is not already there.)
No. A status already set by a moderator or by another moderation plugin is left alone rather than overridden. A comment your site has already refused — because another plugin marked it as spam, or because it hit your disallowed keyword list — is not sent to the service at all. A comment your site merely held for review, through your moderation keyword list, is checked, but is never published over that hold.
Comments, pingbacks and trackbacks, whether submitted through the comment form, the REST API or XML-RPC. Authors who can moderate comments, and authors who already have an approved comment on your site, are recognised as trusted before any request is built — their comments are never sent.
The comment text and a small set of context fields, listed one by one under "External services" below. The commenter's full email address, IP address and raw User-Agent string are never sent.
