My client is getting the odd submission on the consent prefs form in Webflow. Is this a bot posting to the form endpoint? Is there anything that can be done to stop this?
Bot spam hitting Webflow form endpoints is super common — random entries like “ring door bell” show up on exposed forms all the time. Annoying, but not a security concern
The good news is you can safely disable those “Send to” settings. The consent form doesn’t actually rely on Webflow’s form submission to function — the fs-consent-element=“form” attribute handles saving consent preferences internally, so everything still gets recorded in your Consent Pro Logs and Records.
Here’s how to cut off the spam emails:
In Webflow Designer, select the consent form element
In the right panel, open the Form Block settings
Under Send To, disable both “Webflow” and “Email Notifications”
Publish your site
Consent tracking will continue running normally through Consent Pro’s internal system — those spam submissions just won’t trigger any emails anymore.
After making the change, it’s worth a quick check in your Consent Pro Logs and Records to confirm consents are still being captured properly. They should be, but always good to verify.
