There’s no need to be banging your head against a wall. You can also stop your search because the solution is right here, right now. In today’s article, you’ll learn how to block unwanted emails in WordPress so you no longer receive annoying spam submissions. Let’s get down to the business!
Block specific email addresses or email domains from submitting your form
It is very easy to block a single email address or email domain that keeps harassing you with spam submissions. All you need is our free Ninja Forms core plugin and powerful Conditional Logic add-on.
Once you install the add-on, you’ll need to add the Submit button and the Email Address field to your form. Then, you head over to the Advanced tab within your form builder and open the Conditional Logic tab. Click on the Add New Condition and select the form fields you want to apply conditions.
In the example below, we applied the logic to the Email Address field and set triggers to hide the Submit button if the email address equals example@email.com.
In the other example, we blocked the Hotmail email domain using the conditional trigger Contains. This means any email containing the Hotmail domain will be blocked from submitting the form.
Additionally, you can also display an error message within an HTML field, if the user enters an email containing hotmail.com.
That’s all. You’ve just learned how to block an unwanted email address in your form. Nothing complicated as you may have thought at first!
