    These days, our blog is receiving too many spam comments. Though we have installed Akismet, every day more than 5-7 comments are missed by Akismet to be marked as SPAM.

    So, to avoid that I wanted to install Really Simple Captcha to our comments form. Is there a way to do it?

    The plugin author has given some instructions but me being a non-techie, there are no clear step-by-step instructions on how to add it to comments form.

    Please help. I see that many similar queries are asked earlier too on this forum. Your answer to this question will help dozens of people.
