Had high Hopes but the App corrupts the Checkout button functionality in the shop (at least if using the DAWN theme) - this was identified as the problem by Shopify Support. There was no means to fix it. IF ReCaptcha spam Buster issues a new update to remove this bug, also assuring its Shopify Compliant with DAWN theme and Mac OS Safari we would be keen to see it back in our shopify site.

Thank you for this review — and for the detail in it. You were right, and we're sorry for the trouble it caused. We investigated the issue you described and found the cause: a conflict between our storefront script and the checkout button in the Dawn theme, which was most noticeable in Safari on Mac. This has now been fixed and the update is live for all stores — nothing needs to be changed on your end, the fix applies automatically. We've tested the fix specifically against the Dawn theme and Safari on macOS, alongside our usual browser and theme checks, and checkout now behaves exactly as it does without the app installed. If you're willing to give reCAPTCHA Spambuster another go, we'd love to have you back — and if you hit any issue at all, contact us through the app's support link and we'll make it a priority. Thanks again for taking the time to report this so clearly; reviews like yours are how the app gets better.

Shopify's default spam filter just does not do the job and spam still gets through, reCAPTCHA spambuster reliably solves this without any clumsiness. I have been using it on my contact form and blog and have found it to be very reliable.

We were looking forward to using this app. Unfortunately, it does not come up. All we see is a spinner. I am updating the review because the developer was very prompt in offering support.

This seems to be a case affecting only your shop, so let's solve it. I have replied to your email and looking forward to solve the issue with you as I understand more specifically what is going on. Would appreciate if waiting for the issue to be handled before leaving a negative review, since we do not know the reason yet. Looking forward to your email response. Sorry for the inconvenience.

If you have a blog on Shopify then you will know how poor the spam filtering is, this is the only app that I have found that sorts the problem. I've been using it for several weeks now and it works perfectly, impressed!

Installed this app, which just took a moment. It works perfectly to get rid of the 100's of daily spam comments (often a series of 6-9 random characters, or viagra etc links) without us having to manually select 20 at a time in Shopify and delete or mark as spam. Saves a ton of time. Highly recommended. Their support is also great, they provided some custom CSS for me to dial in the formatting perfectly for our website.

This app may have worked at one point but it marks all comments, even legitimate ones, as spam. Also, even though it marks everything as spam it does not delete them. Nice idea but kind of poor execution. It does not save our company any time and does not solve the continued spam problem that has been ongoing with the Shopify blog comments.

Hi Body Aware, there was a bug causing the latest inserted comment to be marked as spam. It was happening in the case of no new comments being made between the spam checks. This has been fixed now. To summarise your concerns: 1. this app does not delete spam comments because Shopify spam is never a 100% certainty, even if we get very close with this idea. It is best to let Shopify deal with the actual spam deletion. We can consider adding an optional setting that allows deleting the comments marked as spam, please let us know if there is interest. 2. the way to save time is to create a comment filter in your Shopify Admin that only shows you comments that need approval. Please reach out if you would like assistance on how to do this. If you experience any problems with the app please just reach out directly and we will do our best to find a solution. Cheers, - Chris @ reCAPTCHA spambuster

This is saving us a lot of time by correctly marking spam as spam so it's easy to filter it away and only see the comments that matter.
