Hcaptcha Integration

Came across this alternative to Google and they pay you to use it! They have a WordPress and Drupal plugin but not a Joomla one. Would be great see the forms have this an option if possible?

Hi,
any update about hCaptcha integration?

Thanks
Robin

Hi Robin!

No, at the moment the hCaptcha is not available. We supporting default Joomla reCAPTCHA plugins: V2 and Invisible.

I propose to use "Honeypot" and enable 3rd party captcha protections only if you start receiving spam.

Hi,
thanks for your feedback.
Google services are no longer GDPR compatible
And there is a joomla native plugin for hCaptcha.
It would be great to use this.
Thanks Robin

Robin,

I have explored Joomla! 3.9.21 and Joomla! 4 Beta 4, doesn't include hCaptcha

Hi,

we found an plugin for use hCaptcha in Joomla! (data2site.com/extensions/hcaptcha).

For internal tests we installed it in one joomla. But only Google reCaptcha is shown in the properties of submit button (screenshot_001.png).

When you edit an form in the administrator backend the request form.getRecaptchaData only fetch recaptcha and recaptcha_invisible plugin. Does this have an technical background?

I checked the source of the method and after an sql query you load the plugin params like public_key and private_key. I Know you can only read params with the same name. The params from the hCaptcha plugin have another typo.

My advice, you change the sql, so all captcha plugin will be load. And I asked the maintainer of the hCaptcha plugin, to change the parameter names.

Hi,

I have an response from the developer of the hCaptcha plugin.

In according to the Joomla! Coding Standards the XML Preferences are valid. So the developer wont change the names. Change the names will also refresh the values, so the user must fill the plugin properties again.

My question from the previous post, can we also check under_scores and CamelCase names? Is there an technical issue in your component, that does not allow it?

Thanks
