Introduction

Extension Specific, Community Builder extensions

This Community Builder plugin produces a captcha image and a security field along with verification logic. This security feature can be included (via plugin parameter settings) in one or more of the following CB processes: registration process, forgotten password process and email user process. A number of parameter settings are available to customize the captcha image. A must have plugin to protect against spambots!


Requirements: CB 1.4 or better; PHP 4/5 with GD and FreeType libraries

Note: This package along with 14 other CB Team released addons is offered as part of the Advanced and Professional membership subscription packages.

I followed steps to install it and doesn't work. Nobody answered from the developers. It is a real problem trying to download this program then it just not fly.



Is there any other captcha solution for 1.0?

thank you

simple and easy to use
I give this an excellent for the added security it gives to your CB website. The back end settings are well noted but I do have a suggestion. There is no refresh button that I can see that could be placed next to the captcha image - this would be in case someone could not understand the captcha image. Is this a consideration from the developer? Otherwise I deem this extension a must have for any CB website owner.

Our site has been using this plugin for several months and it is nearly eliminated spambot registrations. "Nearly" because a very rare few spammers do sit there and manually register, but CAPTCHA is the cat's meow for keeping the vast majority away. Please note that the version in the free downloads, according to our experience, requires Legacy Mode; there is an update for CB Documentation Subscribers (recommended) that runs in full Native Mode. As an alternative, the CB ReCaptcha plugin also in the JED is less customizable and requires registration for public/private keys (free at this time), but is Native Mode compatible.

Plugin now no longer free

Excellent plugin however users should note that you now have to subscribe to Joomlapolis to download the plugin.
Before I installed this plugin for CB, I spent 15 minutes every morning blocking spambot IP addresses from accessing my Web site.



No More SpamBots!!! yay! Now I can focus on defending against hackers and real human spammers and not waste time on the cumbersome SpamBots.



Thanks!
This has been working great with my j1.0.15 but got problem when i install it with my j1.5.10. This only work in j1.5.10 legacy mode.
Owner's reply: As stated:

Update: Version 2.2 RC4 available for CB documentation subscribers (added security and Joomla 1.5 native compatibility)

A great plugin for CB, but I can't manage to make it work in Joomla 1.5 Native mode (seems to work only in Legacy). I hope joomlapolis won't withdraw the development of this plugin!

It works!

It works beautifully with my Joomla 1.0.15 and CB 1.1!
