## Descrizione

Mimic Guard is an anti-spam plugin for WordPress mail and contact forms. It uses
dynamic honeypots, submission time monitoring, and integration with major form plugins
to reduce automated bot submissions.

 * **Honeypot** — Detects bots that fill hidden form fields
 * **Time check** — Flags submissions that are unrealistically fast after the form
   is shown
 * **Form integration** — Works with WPForms, Contact Form 7, comments, and more
 * **Page caching** — Optional AJAX honeypot injection when HTML is cached
 * **Privacy** — Optional IP anonymization when logging events

Configure minimum submission time, token lifetime, log list size, and more from 
the admin screens.

## Installazione

 1. Upload the plugin folder to `/wp-content/plugins/mimicguard/` or install from the
    ZIP file.
 2. Activate Mimic Guard on the Plugins screen in WordPress.
 3. Open the Mimic Guard menu to review settings and logs.

## FAQ

### I use a full-page caching plugin

Enable “Insert honeypot via AJAX (cache-friendly)” so honeypots can still be loaded
even when HTML is cached.

### Legitimate submissions are being blocked

Try increasing the minimum submission time slightly, or disable “Require time-check
token” if you do not need it.

### Where are logs stored?

In a dedicated database table. You can run cleanup from the admin area based on 
retention settings.
