    Recently, a lot of spam comments about product reviews have been coming in. I have their manual approval turned on, but I have to throw about 20 of these reviews into spam every day. The question is whether Woodmart can implement, for example, recaptcha for the use of opinions in the module? Or what do you recommend? I have Elementor’s recaptcha for the contact form and it’s fine, but here it’s a disaster.

    Hello,

    Since WooCommerce reviews are based on WordPress comments, the comment moderation settings will apply to reviews. Enabling “Comment must be manually approved” will help catch spam reviews.

    Navigate to Settings > Discussion and check the option.

    You can also enable the “Reviews can only be left by verified owners” option in WooCommerce settings, which ensures only customers who have purchased the product can leave reviews.

    For added protection, you can integrate CAPTCHA or reCAPTCHA to your review process.

    You’ll need to use a plugin on your site, which helps prevent spam submissions: https://woocommerce.com/products/recaptcha-for-woocommerce/

    Best Regards,
