It's free, and we greatly appreciate any feedback. We are committed to making this plugin a success.
Unfortunately, this plugin is not currently compatible with our Community Builder extension. However, we may eventually merge the two. If you really want this feature, email us and it may inspire us to work faster. We have a bunch of other improvements we're working on, and we're struggling to deliver them all quickly. But this is a great problem to have!
Always test before putting a new extension on your production site!

I installed it, with the help of the detailed documentation, without any problems. I then ran into a problem with the Virtuemart forms. I contacted the support team and was blown away. They offered the best service I've ever experienced in my couple of years working with Joomla and its extensions.
They worked with me through the issues until everything worked perfectly. I highly recommend the use of this extension for its obvious reasons but most importantly for the dedication and professionalism of this team.
Thank you Peoplesign Team and continue the great work!
I support multiple Joomla websites, and have a fairly good experience level with Joomla and web technologies.
I found the installation, registration, and customization process for this extension very easy and simple.
When I encountered an error, the error told me who to report it to, so I whipped out the email. I received a response within an hour, and the Peoplesign staff (Dave in particular) worked quickly to resolve the error and update the plugin to work in my environment.
I like the customization levels that are possible, and the ability to customize the captcha section to match my site. I particularly like the easy customization process. In the plugin parameters, there are "click here" links to the customization page at Peoplesign. There you set the parameters, and immediately see how the plugin will look on your site with those parameters. It provides the customization string that you can then cut and paste into the plugin parameters. You can have a unique customization string for each location that you implement the plugin.
I'm currently using it on a security information website, on the registration page to stop the drive-by spam ids that get created on a fairly regular basis.
I'm about to deploy it to the church sites I support that have a terrible time with the spam ids as well.
I found this to be a great, easy to use extension. I'm much more impressed with the support I received, which is truly the mark of a good product.
Thanks so much for creating this.
I found what I was looking for in peoplesign.
What makes this package so great is the ease of installation, customizing the complexity of the CAPTCHA puzzle, outstanding support from Dave and team at peoplesign and the reliability of the product in terms of keeping spammers out of my websites.
I've been operating peoplesign for 3 weeks now, and since inception, I have had only 1 spammer account sign up, and I suspect it was a legitimate human user. This is incredible, considering leading up to the implementation of this product, during the first week of January, over 200 spam accounts were created active and inactive.
If you're on the fence about this product, rest assured, after implementing it, you'll see why peoplesign will be the new standard soon.
I have no problems with recommending this.
i switched to this capcha after a lot of users file complaints to me that they can login sometimes and it's difficult to make out the characters with the previous capcha extension!! I switeched to People Sign captcha and they love it!!
WORKS!!!! and LESS HASSLES!!!
GREAT EXTENSION!! users friendly!!!
The customization system is also quite useful especially for internationalization, but I would have enjoyed having it within the plugin interface, instead than using the very long customization string. But overall I rate it as an excellent improvement over the "ordinary" captchas. I hear that more improvements are on the way....
Many thanks
Antonio
Thanks Antonio. We appreciate the kind words and also the feedback that lead to some fixes and improvements. You probably heard from Dave that some crazy new customization options are in the works, and I can confirm this.
Using our centralized customization system, you'll be able to use the new options on your site without having to update your peoplesign plugin! You can experiment with any new options on peoplesign.com/main/customize.html, copy the customization string, and then paste into your Joomla admin page.
We currently have over 25 options and we support numerous other plugin plaforms in addition to Joomla. Having to maintain a customize UI for all these platforms would be a nightmare for everybody involved. Centralization frees up our time to deliver requested features and reduces bugs. The alternative would result in more updates/patches for you.
We're currently working on usability enhancements on our customization page using Javascript. These enhancements would be difficult or impossible to implement in the Joomla admin page. Thinking about your feedback, maybe we can streamline by automatically coping the customization string into the copy buffer. I'll check it out. Excellent feedback!
I have many bad experience from old style Captcha ,because them make many problem like very hard to guess unreadable alphabet ,another good thing is this extension can solve problem of many handicapped people such as old man or colorblind eyes peoples .
so please keep working good like this
Thank you for your extension
Pros: I've tested it on the registration page and it works great. The customization mechanism is slick.
Cons: The CB version allowed independent customization for each location. True, that feature is overkill, and I'm not sure if anybody is actually using it. One setting applied to all locations is probably fine. However, if anybody really wants it email me and I'll show you how I implemented it.
Overall: SWEET!
