Page, Form, or Field Exclusion From Anti-Spam Checking

 

Here is the list of guides for setting up exclusions for the supported CMS.

 

Inability to exclude some fields
 

It's technically impossible to exclude "Email" and "Nickname" fields on some forms. If exclusion of these fields is categorically important for you, we recommend the following:

 WordPress anchor CleanTalk

 

You can set up exclusions here:

WordPress Admin Page —> Settings —> Anti-Spam by CleanTalk —> Advanced settings —> Exclusions. After making all the necessary changes, save changes.

 

URL exclusions

To exclude a website's page from anti-spam checking add the full URL of the page in the "URL exclusions" field. For example, to exclude http://wordpress.example.com/sample-page/ you need to enter the value http://wordpress.example.com/sample-page/. Use a comma or new lines as a separator if you want to add multiple URLs.

Exclusion by Url

 

You can use regular expressions to fine-tune exceptions.

For example, if you need to exclude a group of pages from the "some" category:

  • example.com/some/thing
  • example.com/some/one
  • example.com/some/body
  • example.com/some2/test

enable the option "Use Regular Expression in URL Exclusions" and enter the word "some" in the "URL exclusions" field — all pages in which the word "some" appears will be excluded from anti-spam checking.

Exclusion by Url Regular

 

If you want to exclude pages from the "some" category, but not from the "some2" category, you can use a more precise regular expression.

Exclusion by Url Regular 2

You can use public Internet resources to test your regular expression, for example, Regular Expressions 101. When writing a regular expression, keep in mind that when saving plugin settings, the characters "" and "/" will be cut from the beginning and the end of the line.

 

 Field name exclusions

 

To exclude fields of the form, add the field name of your form in the "Field name exclusions" field. For example, to exclude the Name field in the standard WordPress comment form, you need to add the value author. You can add multiple fields, separated by commas.

Exclusion by Field

Similar to page exceptions, you can use regular expressions to fine-tune field exceptions by enabling the option "Use Regular Expression in Field Exclusions"

To exclude by role, select a user's group in the list. To select multiple user groups, hold CTRL on your keyboard.

Exclusions by roles

URL exclusions

 

To exclude a website's page from anti-spam checking add the part of the page's URL without the website's domain in the field "URL exclusions". For example, to exclude the page http://example.com/some/test you need to add /some/test. Use a comma as a separator if you want to add multiple URLs.

Exclusion by URL

 

You can use regular expressions to fine-tune exceptions.

Example 1: If you need to exclude a group of pages from the "some" category:

  • example.com/some/thing
  • example.com/some/one
  • example.com/some/body
  • example.com/some2/test

enable the option "RegExp?" and enter the word "some" in the "URL exclusions" field — all pages in which the word "some" appears will be excluded from anti-spam checking.

Example 2: if you want to exclude pages from the "some" category, but not from the "some2" category, you can use the regular expression /some/.
