Beschreibung
This plugin prevents a specific set of WooCommerce fake/spam orders.
Simply install and activate the plugin; there are no settings or tweaks to be made unless you want to add your own filters.
The plugin extends WooCommerce’s built-in checkout validations to check for a specific set of known spam email accounts and names. If triggered, the spam bot simply cannot checkout and importantly does not get to the account creation stage.
The names/emails it checks for would only be used by spam bots, so there is no need to worry about false positives.

How to Use Custom Filters
Starting from plugin version 0.77, you can extend the list of blocked email domains and blocked customer names using custom filters.
Available Filters:
- BSSO_extra_domains: Add custom email domains to block during the checkout process.
- BSSO_extra_names: Add custom first names to block during the checkout process.
Example Usage
To use these filters, add code to your theme’s functions.php
file or a custom plugin.
1. Blocking Additional Email Domains
If you want to block additional email domains like exampledomain.com
and spamdomain.net
, use the BSSO_extra_domains
filter.
Code Example:
add_filter('BSSO_extra_domains', function () {
return ['exampledomain.com', 'spamdomain.net'];
});
2. Blocking Additional First Names
If you want to block additional first names like spambot
and faker
, use the BSSO_extra_names
filter.
Code Example:
add_filter('BSSO_extra_names', function () {
return ['spambot', 'faker'];
});
Complete Example
Here’s how you might use both filters together:
Code Example:
add_filter('BSSO_extra_domains', function () {
return ['exampledomain.com', 'spamdomain.net'];
});
add_filter('BSSO_extra_names', function () {
return ['spambot', 'faker'];
});
Version Compatibility
Please note that these filters are only available starting from version 0.77 of the plugin. Ensure your plugin is updated to at least this version to use the custom filters.
