Contact Page - Anti Spam
#2

Does this mean the captcha is hidden, I personally would like to see it as i have had issues with spam in the past, and would like some sort of antispam solution.
It’s a CAPTCHA using the honey pot technique. In short this means you add a field to the contact form that you hide for everyone, but because spam crawlers that look only at the HTML see the field they will fill it in. The contact form just checks and doesn’t send any email when the field is filled, assuming only bots will put text there.

So it shouldn’t be visible.

does anyone know where the link to it is as i can't seem to find it
In the plugin forum you can find Simple Contact Plugin. It supports questions but I don’t think all bugs are fixed yet…
