reCAPTCHA for SMF

About

This modification allows you to use reCAPTCHA instead of the built-in Visual Verification system. It supports the SMF 2.0 series.

Portions of the code use the PHP reCAPTCHA API.

This mod and other information can be found at: http://www.animeneko.net/projects/smf/

Features

  • Use reCAPTCHA on your forum in place of or in combination with the built-in verification options.
  • Support for built-in reCAPTCHA themes

How to Use

You can enable reCAPTCHA by going to:

Admin -> Configuration -> Security and Moderation -> Anti-Spam

A set of keys are required for operation of reCAPTCHA. A link is provided in the settings to register for a key pair.

2.0 Upgrade Note

If you are upgrading from a version older than 2.0, there is one major change to be aware of.

Starting with version 2.0, this modification no longer replaces the built-in image verification. It now operates independently of those settings. If you don't want the built-in image verification, make sure to set it to "None".

Known Issues

  • The error messages are the built-in ones, so they will talk about letters not being filled in or matching.
