Need to add it to new extended project.

schlos commented 3 years ago

Add honeypot to user profile edit form.

Updated March 28, 2018: The above technique will work on spammers that do not ignore JavaScript. However, for spammers that do ignore JavaScript, a server side technique would be a better solution.

To-do: add JS detection and block form from loading if JS is disabled.
