Does hiding the HoneyPot field defeat the features purpose?

    I have the honeypot feature enabled on one of my sites but we're still receiving quite a bit of spam. I was thinking that the feature may not be working properly since I have the field hidden using display:none;.

    I've done this in the past and everything worked fine, but would hiding the field with css cause problems with the feature??

    Hi cncpts,

    The field should be automatically hidden via CSS (using display:none;) so this should not be interefering with the functionality. I will ask around and see if I can get any more insight into why this might be failing.
