Honeypot Fields
What is a honeypot field and how to deal with it in Formspector?
A honeypot field is a trap for automated spam-software. It's a hidden field that a normal user will never see. Sometimes it's a field with the type
hidden in most of the cases it is made hidden with some special CSS styles.Since a normal user would never see this field, he would never fill it in. Thus, if it is filled in, you can assume that an automated software is trying to fill in the form with spam data.
Since Formspector has no intention of being recognized as spam software, this field should simply be left blank. So you can just skip it when filling the default values.
