Gravity Forms AbuseIPDB Add-On GPL v1.0.0.2

Gravity Forms AbuseIPDB Add-On GPL Overview

Gravity Forms AbuseIPDB Add-On connects your Gravity Forms installation to the AbuseIPDB threat database, checking submitting IP addresses against a list of reported abusive addresses before an entry ever reaches your database. When someone fills out a form on your WordPress site, the add-on queries AbuseIPDB in real time and blocks the submission if the visitor’s IP has a poor reputation. This happens at the point of submission, so spam, credential-stuffing attempts, and abusive traffic get stopped before they touch your leads, orders, or registration lists.

Key Features

• Real-time IP reputation checks against the AbuseIPDB database on form submission
• Configurable abuse confidence threshold, so you decide how aggressive the blocking should be

• Works across form types built in Gravity Forms, including lead capture, payment, and registration forms
• Blocks entries before they’re saved, keeping flagged submissions out of your database entirely
• Integrates directly with the Gravity Forms entry and submission process without requiring a separate firewall tool
  

  Requirements

  This add-on requires an active installation of Gravity Forms, as it extends that plugin’s form processing directly. It will not function as a standalone tool. You’ll also need an AbuseIPDB API key to authenticate the IP lookup requests. As with any Gravity Forms add-on, keeping the core plugin updated ensures the extension has access to the entry-processing hooks it depends on.
