The comment form displays the question and the commenter types in their answer as part of the comment form. If the commenter answers incorrectly, then their comment fails and doesn't get added. The primary use of this plugin is to reduce comment spam but it can also be used to make your comments "by invitation only." To do this, you can create a question like, "Please enter the invitation code" and then email your invitees the code. In this way, only those who have the invitation will be able to enter the code and comment. == Installation == 1. Upload the `comment-gatekeeper` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory 2.
