It may no longer be maintained or supported and may have compatibility issues when used with more recent versions of WordPress. ![](https://ps.w.org/kama-spamblock/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=3000349) # Kama SpamBlock By [Timur Kamaev](https://profiles.wordpress.org/tkama/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/kama-spamblock.zip) * [Details](https://dv.wordpress.org/plugins/kama-spamblock/#description) * [Reviews](https://dv.wordpress.org/plugins/kama-spamblock/#reviews) * [Development](https://dv.wordpress.org/plugins/kama-spamblock/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/kama-spamblock/) ## Description Effectively prevent automatic spam when a spam comment is posted with Kama Spamblock, a plugin that operates discreetly and remains completely invisible to users—no captcha codes required. The plugin not only blocks spam comments but also conducts thorough checks on pings and trackbacks to ensure the authenticity of backlinks. Even if you are using an external comment system like Disqus, installing Kama Spamblock remains valuable. This is because autospam can be posted directly to the ‘wp-comments- post.php’ file, and the plugin serves as a robust defense against such comments. ## Screenshots * [[ * Plugin settings on standard WordPress `Settings > Discussion` page. * [[ * Spam alert, when spam comment is detected or if the user has JavaScript disabled in their browser. This alert allows sending the comment once again when it was blocked in any nonstandard cases. ## FAQ ### When posting a comment on the site, I received a message, ‘Antispam blocked your comment!’. Is this a normal function of the plugin? No! The plugin is invisible to users. You should navigate to the ‘Discussion’ settings page in WordPress. At the bottom, you’ll find ‘Kama Spamblock settings.’ Set the correct ID attribute for the comment form submit button there. You can obtain this attribute from the ‘source code’ of your site’s page where the comment form is located. Look for: `type="submit" id="??????"`. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/56454e5f57808f1495ad1a0dc990e5370ecc9f95e398d82d32b484684317a473? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[When will there be an update?](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/when-will-there-be-an-update-2/)󠁿 [krivokoso](https://profiles.wordpress.org/krivokoso/) މާރޗް 1, 2026 Безусловно лучшее решение для борьбы со спамом на сайте, но когда ждать обновления? ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/2e8e8b938f610246e48ef381c87c5c236e811c1be819776a928e10ae5c2070d2? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Хороший плагин](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/%d1%85%d0%be%d1%80%d0%be%d1%88%d0%b8%d0%b9-%d0%bf%d0%bb%d0%b0%d0%b3%d0%b8%d0%bd-275/)󠁿 [Леонид](https://profiles.wordpress.org/01nileo/) ނޮވެމްބަރ 23, 2023 Спасибо за плагин.

This is a waste of time. It is better that spam comments do not appear at all. right now I use the kama-spamblock plugin and in a year and a half not a single spam comment! kama-spamblock is a very good plugin! Another advantage is that captcha does not annoys. no need to enter any numbers or click (like in Google recaptcha). Right now I want to repeat your success (take over the idea of captcha) for another CMS. everything is so great. Ru: за полтора года ни одного спамного коментария и капча не раздражает раньше у меня на сайте themes-wordpress.ru с нулевой посещалкой за год работы были штук 700 спамных коментариев, которые Akismet помечал как спамные, их надо было открывать и чистить. Это бессмысленная трата времени. Лучше чтобы спамные коментарии вообще не появлялись. щас я пользуюсь плагином kama-spamblock и за полтора года ни одного спамного коментария! kama-spamblock – очень хороший плагин! Ещё одно преимущество в том что капча не бесит. не требуется вводить никакие цифры или кликать( как в Гугл рекапча). Щас я хочу повторить ваш успех (перенять идею капчи) для другой CMS. настолько всё отлично. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/ec1adb6fe0eff07e1ca0feec0acc43026f0b2f3c1130bb9fa61317bf901b4fc3? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Отличный плагин!
