    Hi Support,

    In the last for months I have been receiving many spam comments that of course need an Admin approval. Is there anyway to reduce this or stop them?

    Thank you kindly,

    Thanks, I would need to purchase a API key correct?

    Any other plugin you recommend that is free that works just as well?

    Thanks,
