Hello, with the activated Antispam Bee no comments are possible in our blog. Every attempt to save the comment is acknowledged with the message: “Please fill the required field.” Is there any way to use Antispam Bee with the BuddyBoss theme? Thanks for the help! Best regards The page I need help with: [ log in to see the link] Hi @near03 the problem lies within this JS file from the BuddyBoss theme: /wp-content/themes/buddyboss-theme/assets/js/main.min.js?ver=2.7.90 It checks the ID #commentform and uses https://jqueryvalidation.org/documentation/ for the form validation. With targeting “comment” it now unfortunately checks our honeypot and not the real comment form. Maybe the BuddyBoss developer can help or you find a way to modify/disable this validation. I tried a little bit more and was successful with this code snippet: jQuery(document).ready(function($) { // Suche nach dem Kommentarformular var commentForm = $("form#commentform"); if (commentForm.length) { // Entferne die automatische Validierung für das Honeypot-Feld commentForm.find('input[aria-label="hp-comment"]').rules("remove", "required"); // Stelle sicher, dass das eigentliche Kommentar-Eingabefeld validiert wird commentForm.find('textarea#comment').rules("add", { required: true, messages: { required: "Bitte hinterlasse einen Kommentar." } }); console.log("jQuery Validation erfolgreich angepasst."); } }); Unfortunately it still doesn’t work as BuddyBoss uses AJAX to submit the comment which is not compatible with Antispam Bee out of the box (see our FAQ) and would need more modifications. But as BuddyBoss is a paid theme we cannot check ourselves, which effectively means that this theme is incompatible with Antispam Bee. Maybe another antispam plugin with another approach is a better fit here. Sorry for not having better news for you. OK, aber trotzdem vielen Dank für die Unterstützung!
