Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about VMS Elements Form Guard

Yes! Basic disposable email detection and domain validation work without any API keys. Google Web Risk, VirusTotal, and AI features are optional enhancements.

No. Validation is performed via AJAX before form submission. Most checks complete in under 500ms. API responses are cached to minimize latency.

VMS Elements Form Guard works with any HTML form. It's tested with Contact Form 7, WPForms, Gravity Forms, Ninja Forms, Newsletter Plugin, and many more.

The plugin only processes email domains for core validation, not full email addresses. Optional features may process more data depending on your settings. No personal information is stored on VMS servers by default. You are responsible for your site's privacy policy when using third-party APIs.

When configured, the plugin may send domain names (and related validation metadata) to Google Web Risk, VirusTotal, Google reCAPTCHA, and AI providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google Gemini, DeepSeek). See the Privacy Policy section for the full per-service breakdown.

Go to Form Guard Click "Add form guard mapping" Set Form Type to "Custom" Enter your form's CSS selector (e.g., #my-form or .contact-form) Configure validation options and save

Yes. Go to VMS Elements Form Guard > Whitelist Domains and add trusted domains. Whitelisted domains bypass all validation checks.

Check these in order: 1. Is the domain on the disposable list? Add it to the whitelist 2. Is VirusTotal flagging it? Adjust the detection thresholds 3. Is the HTTPS check failing? Disable the HTTPS requirement for that form

You can save API keys for multiple providers, but only one is active at a time. You can switch between providers anytime without losing your keys.

The plugin includes over 10,000 known disposable email domains, and you can add custom domains to the blocklist.
