Hello
Our site has a lot of spam, the Antispam does not work because every comment gets approved automatically even if I set every setting for manual approval.
Here a list of all the plugins we have installed:

Could you tell me what settings are supposed to give me the desired result?
Thanks

In this case, you can configure the permission on the comment section to does not allow the anonymous can submit a comment or if you want to the comment need to approve of the admin before publish a comment, you can add the following code to the theme folder:

add_filter( 'dwqa_insert_comment_args', 'dwqa_theme_moderate_comment' );
function dwqa_theme_moderate_comment( $args ) {
$args['comment_approved'] = 0;
return $args;
}
