Web Ok Honeypot Lite for CF7

Web Ok Honeypot Lite adds a simple, effective honeypot field to your Contact Form 7 forms. It catches spam bots by adding a hidden field that real users never see — but bots fill it in automatically, revealing themselves as spam.

Why this plugin?

  • Zero configuration — no settings page, no database writes. Just add the tag and go.
  • Lightweight — under 10KB total. No bloat, no upsells, no bundled features you don’t need.
  • Silent success — bots see a fake “message sent” response, so they never learn to adapt.
  • Drop-in replacement — uses the same [honeypot] tag as other CF7 honeypot plugins. Switch without editing your forms.
  • Works great alongside Turnstile/reCAPTCHA — honeypots catch dumb bots, CAPTCHAs catch smart ones.

How it works:

  1. Add [honeypot your-field-name] anywhere in your CF7 form template.
  2. The plugin renders a hidden text input that’s invisible to humans.
  3. Spam bots auto-fill every field they find, including the honeypot.
  4. If the honeypot has a value on submission, the form is silently rejected.
