    Sorry, no it’s not your users add-on. Form submissions are sent to me via the email processor and I add the users to wordpress manually.

    Thanks for the clarification on the captcha field.

    It’s a simple custom form that sends me an email. Has four required fields: two single line text, email, and a paragraph text area.
    I see reCaptcha in the drop down as a choice of special field but if I select that it says it’s discontinued.

    Yes, definitely after 1.5.5. I updated in the evening and the spam started coming in the next morning. This was after several months of zero spam getting through (not one). This is a bbpress/buddypress site and the form is used for registration applications. Happy to send you the form or a link if it would be helpful.
    Default field IDs.
    The Akismet processor slowed it down but some still got through.
    I have switched at least temporarily to a different form plugin that has a reCaptcha field which has stopped the spam on that site. However, I do prefer to use Caldera Forms if possible.
    I have another site with two Caldera forms used for different purposes and so far am not having the same problem there. I don’t see the same level of attempts on this site however, maybe in part because something obvious like a “register” link doesn’t lead the bots to the forms? Will take a look at Anti-Spam Bee. Thanks.
