Hi @sewmagic,
such as anti-spam and database plugins
I’m not sure what you meant by database plugins. Could you please mention the plugin name you use?
Regarding Anti Spam, Forminator provides integration with Akismet and Clean Talk as mentioned in the following doc:
https://wpmudev.com/docs/wpmu-dev-plugins/forminator/#enable-akismet-spam-protection
https://wpmudev.com/docs/wpmu-dev-plugins/forminator/#cleantalk-anti-spam
So you can any of those plugins and also use features such as Honeypot and Captcha within the form settings to further reduce spam entries.

Please do let us know if you have any further queries.
Kind Regards,
Nithin
Hi @sewmagic
We didn’t hear back from you for quite some time already.
I’m marking this topic as resolved but if you still need assistance with this, let us know and we can get back to it at any time.
Kind regards,
Adam
I’m sorry…I never saw your message. (Too much email coming in!)
The extensions used, in addition to CF7 itself, are:
Contact Form 7 Spam Killer, Contact Form CFDB7, Honeypot for Contact Form 7, and ReCaptcha v2 for Contact Form 7. (At one point, we were having a serious issue with spam submissions.)
I am hoping I can delete some of those extensions!
Thanks!
Sewmagic
Hello @sewmagic !
Hope you’re having a good day!
In this case you will have the equivalents of those in Forminator itself, out of the box, those just need a bit of setup and you will be ready to go.
Spam Killer – as Adam mentioned, this is available as intergrations with popular antispam plugins.
CF7DB – Forminator already stores and displays the submissions in the Submissions submenu, so you’re already covered.
Honeypot – this is built into the plugin as well, you can enabled this on each form’s edit screen on the Behaviour tab.
reCaptcha – integration with reCaptcha and hCaptcha is also included out of the box, you can set that up in Forminator > Settings > Captcha and pick from various options.
Please also refer to the doc links my colleague already shared and if you have any additional questions, please let us know!
Kind regards,
Paweł
Thank you for the detailed response. I will most likely be removing CF7 shortly, since Forminator seems to be a much richer package (I love the availability of Conditional Logic!).
Many thanks!
