## Description

This plugin marries the plugins WP Hashcash and Contact Form 7 thus allowing you
to protect your contact forms using captcha-less hashcash spam prevention. Requires
both [WP Hashcash](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-hashcash/), or [WP Hashcash Extended](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-hashcash-extended/)
if you prefer, and [Contact Form 7](https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/contact-form-7/)
to be installed and activated.

The main advantage of using this plugin is that bots who attempt to send spam using
your contact form will be blocked without inconveniencing human users. Users won’t
have to enter weird image captchas just to reach you.
