[Tip/Trick] Blocking bots from comment posting

[blast]

Since we can't see the honeypot field and I'm good at coding.

Can anyone verify that I have done the following correctly in adding this honeypot field to the "Contact Publisher"...


1 - add the following to theme item-sidebar.php

Code: [Select]

<input id="spamlover" name="spamlover" value="" />
2 - add the following to the theme style.css

Code: [Select]

/*we love spam */
#spamlover {display:none }
3 - add the following to oc-includes/osclass/itemactions.php

Code: [Select]

$spam           = $_POST['spamlover'];
if ($spam === "") {} else {
                Session::newInstance()->_setForm('commentAuthorName', $authorName);
                Session::newInstance()->_setForm('commentTitle', $title);
                Session::newInstance()->_setForm('commentAuthorEmail', $authorEmail);
                Session::newInstance()->_setForm('commentBody', $body);
                return -1;
             }

Thank you
