Hey. Thanks for this plugin. We're having a small issue of spam. Any suggestions on how to handle it?

Any time a new event occurs, an email is sent to the appropriate users when CKAN mailing is enabled. You have three options:
* Disable CKAN mailing
* Install a previous version without the mailing functionality
* Modify the `actions.py` file and remove the content of the `_send_mail` function

Oh.. I meant spam showing up as data requests. :)

😱. I never thought about that. Are the users creating those data requests registered in the platform? Maybe you can implement a CAPTCHA system?

Google reCaptcha was integrated in qld-gov-au fork https://github.com/qld-gov-au/ckanext-datarequests/releases/tag/2.2.1-qgov.9
but it does not stop ckan signup/login etc. we will be trailing other solutions to prevent spam on this since its very easy for spammers to get higher SEO rankings off ckan.
