 * Hi guys,
    since the last update from the thrive comments plugin, every comment
   is marked as spam, but none is saved. So i had to deactivate the plugin to make
   the comments work again.
 * I really like the antispam bee plugin so it would be great to use it again, but
   i don’t know how to solve this…
 * Best,
    Alex

 * Hi [@alexanderhammerschmied](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alexanderhammerschmied/),
   
   I guess you mean this plugin? [https://thrivethemes.com/comments/](https://thrivethemes.com/comments/)
 * Unfortunately, I do not know this plugin and as it is a premium plugin, I can’t
   have a quick look into it. From what I see, they do quite a lot on the comment
   form and change the defaults. So it seems to me, they are also changing the `
   name`-attribute of the comment textarea.
 * This means, Antispam Bee and Thrive do not share a common ground on which they
   could work together right now, I am afraid of. In our code, we rely on the name
   attribute to do some of our work: [https://github.com/pluginkollektiv/antispam-bee/blob/master/antispam_bee.php#L1248](https://github.com/pluginkollektiv/antispam-bee/blob/master/antispam_bee.php#L1248)
 * I also digged a bit deeper into your HTML source, I think even if Thrive would
   use the default name for comments, we probably still wouldn’t be able to work
   with it, as there is a lot of javascript templating involved.
 * So, to me it seems, these to plugins cant work together. I am very sorry :/

 * You don’t need AntispamBee when running Thrive Comments. This plugin already 
   has is a built-in antispam filter and the way that Thrive Comments is designed,
   it doesn’t attract bots or spammers just looking to get a backlink. Since installing
   Thrive Comments, I’ve yet to receive a single bot-automated comment and anyone
   who tries to include a link along with their comment automatically gets flagged
   for moderation by the plugin.
