Adding reCAPTCHA to Contact Us Form

[bsteinagel]

Thank you so much for your help Dave. Everything is working exactly as I wanted it! If we lived closer to each other I would buy you a drink.

This worked for me also, thanks

Should the reCaptcha be added to other portions of the site such as reviews?

Has anyone added the mailhide api to protect against mail scraping?

I'm working on a way to add it to the creat account form. So far I've got the captcha displaying, but can't seem to get the validation routine to work.

bsteinagel..

I don't do answers in PM's... I don't use CAPTCHA on that form.

Have you tried CAPTCHA using true type fonts by Andrew in the addon section! Has CAPTCHA installed on the files your looking for. I use it with two fonts, not just the one it came with. Much better then the reCAPTCHA project.... no call backs.

The only differnce with create_account is that its' form validation is in includes\modules\YOUR_TEMPLATE\create_account.php the edits should be close to the same as contact_us.

I tried to input the reCAHPTHa code that process the "Contact Us" form into includes\modules\pages\contact_us\header_php.php but I get this error message.

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare _recaptcha_qsencode() (previously declared in /home/.herbert/ostenzen/ostenzenherbs.com/includes/templates/simple_zen/templates/recaptchalib.php:47) in /home/.herbert/ostenzen/ostenzenherbs.com/includes/templates/template_default/templates/recaptchalib.php on line 55

Where does the form reside that processes the contact us form?

Help appreciated.

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare _recaptcha_qsencode() (previously declared in /home/.herbert/ostenzen/ostenzenherbs.com/includes/templates/simple_zen/templates/recaptchalib.php:47) in /home/.herbert/ostenzen/ostenzenherbs.com/includes/templates/template_default/templates/recaptchalib.php on line 55

recaptchalib.php should not be in both folders, remove the one in template_default.

That worked perfect!

Thanks for your help.

Lost me with your other messages, but getting back to your first request.... This is what worked for my testing...

for includes\modules\pages\contact_us\header_php.php

add this just below the $error = false;

 require_once('includes/templates/custom/templates/recaptchalib.php');
$privatekey = "PRIVATE-KEY-GOES-HERE";  
$resp = recaptcha_check_answer ($privatekey,
                                $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"],
                                $_POST["recaptcha_challenge_field"],
                                $_POST["recaptcha_response_field"]);

if ($_POST['submitted'] == 'yes' && !$resp->is_valid) {
    $error = true;
    
}

then go down to this line... and add the red section.

 if ($zc_validate_email and !empty($enquiry) and !empty($name) and $resp->is_valid) {

now for includes\templates\classic\templates\tpl_contact_us_default.php

bottom of the page above the submit button code you see a </fieldset> just above it paste this code..

<?php
     if ($error == true) {
        echo '<span style="color:red;font-style:bold;">*Please re-try entering the 2 word reCAPTCHA:</span>';
    }
    //require_once('recaptcha/recaptchalib.php');
    $publickey = "PUBLIC-KEY-GOES-HERE";  
    echo recaptcha_get_html($publickey);
?>

Of course replace the KEY-GOES-HERE with your key.

This work for my tests, if captcha fails, your back to the contact us page. If all is right your on to the success page.

Hi Davewest, i just recently installed zencart. I got the register Capthca working. I was trying to follow your instructions for the contact us page Capthca. I did everything correctly: header_php.php, tpl_contact_us.default.php, but i'm getting a white page? I noticed others seemed to get it to work? What did i do wrong? Thank you. Iaqsuk

never mind, i figured it out, one too many ")" after

and !empty($name).

Got it working, thank you.

I finished writing the code for the reCAPTCHA plugin. It supports configuration options in the admin page, and only requires a few files to upload. I just uploaded it to the add ons, and waiting approval. Here is a link to download it.
