    Hello,

    Looking for a good but simple captcha plugin to use on my Contact Us page. Can anyone suggest a couple good ones I can check out?

    Thanks

    Yes but I didn't see anything that was very current or for anything above ver 1.5.0 so thought I'd see if there were any suggestions.

    Thanks

    I have this installed on v1.51

    http://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=215

    Although I disabled it once I realised that v1.51 had spam protection integrated.

    I wasn't aware of built in spam protection, is there an article about it somewhere? What I was looking for was something to put on my Contact Us page to keep robots from getting my address. I'm getting several emails from the Contact us form offering SEO services, most of them are the same canned message but from different addresses so I figured it was a bot or software that got it.

    Thanks for any info.

    All I know about it is from the whatsnew_1.5.1.html in the 1.5.1 release package (change 273), and the Github commit at

    https://github.com/zencart/zencart/c...145c277db5d303

    I'm afraid I wouldn't know how you're getting the spam that you are.

    So that's where that comes from. The number of times I've filled out one of those and never realised it was a Google thing - and free.

    Google didn't create ReCAPTCHA. They acquired it some time ago. The ReCAPTCHA project has been around since before the google-borg existed.
    Luckily they haven't wrecked it or messed with it much at all (imagine what would have happened if Microsoft had acquired it... :-O!)
    Anyhow ReCAPTCHA is a good option (I've used it on a variety of platforms and types of sites).
