    I had enabled reCAPTCHA for most forms, but not the Send To Friend. Overnight have had this form used to send spam.

    I have now enabled reCAPTCHA for this form. It appears that as this bot was already using the site and must have therefore obtained some prior permission it isn’t being stopped. Any suggestions?

    I have tried to stop the bot via IP address in Cloudflare Firewall, but that isn’t working either.
