The Google reCAPTCHA app is a great way to help control spam on your website. In order to enable this nice feature, you'll need to first set up your Google reCAPTCHA account.
- Add a Label so you know which site this is for.
- Add your domain like yourdomain.com . It will be for the full domain range so if you have subfolders or subdomains, it will work for those.
- Choose if you want to get alerts if Google detects problems with your site, such as misconfiguration errors or an increase in suspicious traffic.
- Register to save this domain.
Once you've Registered it, you'll get the Site Key and Secret Key. Copy those as you'll need them for the next step.
- Click Apps
- Find the phpFox reCAPTCHA App in the list and click it to open it.
- Select Yes to enable the App and add your Site Key and Secret Key in the input fields provided.
Tip
It's always a good idea to clear your site's cache after adding anything.
Note
Once this is enabled, the sign up form will not have a Submit button as the reCAPTCHA handles that. Users would get signed up when they complete the reCAPTCHA challenge.
