Add Spam Protection to Your Website’s Sign-Up Forms
Protecting your website’s sign-up forms from spam is important. It helps keep your data secure and provides a better user experience. This guide will take you through the process step by step. Whether you’re using WordPress, Thrive Architect, or another CMS, you’ll learn how to secure your sign-up forms quickly and easily.
You can also add extra scripts to your content management system (CMS). If needed, contact your CMS support for assistance. This is often where you can also insert tracking codes, such as Google Analytics. The spam protection code should always be placed in the header, above the page, separate from the HTML code of the sign-up form, to function properly.
Important to Know
These instructions only apply to sign-up forms that you can integrate via HTML code. It does not apply to the connection via API. KlickTipp's sign-up forms (sign-up form, inline & widget) already have integrated spam protection. You do not need to insert any special code there.
This guide is only for signup forms that you can embed using HTML code. If you're using an API integration, you don't need this guide. KlickTipp sign-up forms (Sign-Up Form, Inline & Widget) already come with built-in spam protection, so no additional code is needed.
Step-by-Step Instructions
Copy Spam Protection Source Code from the Sign-Up Form
- Create a new list building. To do this, go to → List Building → New List Building.
- Select the → Thrive Themes button there.
- Enter a name for the sign-up form.
- Click on → Create Sign-Up Form.
- A message appears that you must also insert the spam protection source code.
- To do this, click on the → Embed Code button.

- Right-click and select → Copy.
Insert Spam Protection Source Code on the Website
- Go to the WordPress account of your website.
- Open the landing page in edit mode with Thrive Architect.
- On the bottom page level of your landing page, the menu item → Custom Scripts appears on the left.
- If this does not yet appear, click on the → Page button at the top of the breadcrumb next to → Landing Page . Then click on → Custom Scripts on the left.
- Under → Header Scripts, paste the spam protection source code copied from your Thrive sign-up form.
- In a RAW sign-up form, for example, the spam protection source code is attached directly to the HTML code of the sign-up form.
- You must therefore copy out the following script part at the end of the HTML code. Insert it in a suitable place in your CMS:
<script type='text/javascript' src='https://assets.klicktipp.com/listbuildings/system/forms/scripts/protect.js'></script>
