Stop fake or misused emails in your comment section.
This plugin prevents spam and ensures valid email ownership by requiring users to confirm their email address before a comment is submitted.
When a user leaves a comment, they’ll receive a one-time confirmation link by email. Their comment won’t appear until they click the link — no accounts, no passwords and no friction for real users.
Why Use It?
