## Description

HubGuard Anti-Spam by AI Plugin Hub is a smart and seamless anti-spam solution for
your WordPress website. It actively protects your site from unwanted bots, spam 
submissions, and malicious content using a combination of local blocklists and Artificial
Intelligence.

#### Smart Auto-Detection & Control

No complicated setups required! HubGuard Anti-Spam automatically scans and detects
which form plugins are currently active on your WordPress site (such as Default 
Comments, Contact Form 7, Elementor Forms, and WPForms). You have full control with
simple checkboxes to choose exactly which forms to protect.

#### Key Features

 * **Automatic Integration:** Detects your active form builders instantly.
 * **Free Tier:** Start protecting your site immediately with our customizable local
   keyword blocklist (allows up to 300 spam blocks per month).
 * **Pro Tier (Unlimited AI):** Upgrade to our Pro Tier for unlimited, advanced 
   AI-powered spam detection.
 * **Managed API Key:** No need to create your own developer accounts. When you 
   upgrade to Pro, AI Plugin Hub provides the secure API key directly to activate
   your unlimited protection seamlessly.
 * **Live Analytics:** Monitor blocked spam, IP addresses, timestamps, and content
   previews straight from your dashboard.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `hubguard-anti-spam` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory,
    or install the plugin directly through the WordPress plugins screen.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
 3. Navigate to **Settings > HubGuard Anti-Spam** to configure your blocklist and select
    your active forms.
 4. (Optional) Click “Upgrade to Pro” within the plugin to get your official Pro API
    Key from AI Plugin Hub and unlock unlimited AI scanning.

## FAQ

### Do I need to set up my own AI API Key?

No! Unlike other plugins that force you to create developer accounts, we handle 
the tech for you. The Free Tier works out-of-the-box using local blocklists. If 
you choose to upgrade to the Pro Tier, AI Plugin Hub will provide you with the official
API Key to unlock unlimited AI protection.

### Will this work with my specific form plugin?

Yes! HubGuard Anti-Spam features a smart auto-detection system. It will automatically
find the supported form plugins you currently have activated on your site and allow
you to protect them with a single click.

### Can I see what was blocked?

Absolutely. The plugin includes a clean dashboard that logs the timestamp, IP address,
and a preview of the content that was blocked, ensuring no legitimate messages are
lost.
