Forms: Check spam prevention implementation in the Netlify UI

Netlify Forms have seen some nice upgrades this year, including improved spam filtering with Akismet and the addition of a dropdown in the UI to filter entries by state (verified/spam).

Now, you’ll also be able to see right from the form Submissions page whether you’ve successfully configured any extra spam prevention methods, like a honeypot field and/or reCAPTCHA 2 challenge.

If you haven’t added an extra spam prevention method, you’ll see a reminder with a link to the docs that will walk you through the process.

We hope this incremental UI update will help in debugging your spam configuration, giving you even more control over your forms. Stay tuned for more updates!
