Hello,
I recently got 18 empty emails from the same IP Address.
All my forms have required fields.
Most of my forms (except one) implement Google No Captcha.
I have one form that needs to be displayed on every page and I noticed I can't have more than 1 Captcha per page.
How can I handle this form?
Thank you for your help.
Hi amuresan,
Use a different Captcha on the other form - personally I like the original HoneyPot.
Also add some serverside validation to check for required inputs. My best guess here is that this was probably cause by a web-bot scanning and testing the URLs on your site, We've seen that before,
Bob
Hi Bob,
Thank you for getting back to me.
How can I tell if HoneyPot is working?
How can I add the server side validation? Would this require editing the php files?
I am pretty new to Joomla.
Thank you again.
Hi Bob,
Thank you for the references.
I added the hidden field and the server side validation. I tested the form - after filling the hidden field - and the email has been sent. I don't know what went wrong but I will continue debugging.
I am using ChronoForms 5... what do I need in order to setup HoneyPot properly? I added "Load HoneyPot" in the "On load" section and "Check HoneyPot" in the "On submit" section. Would that be enough? How can I tell is working?
I appreciate your help.
Hi amuresan,
As with all the Captchas you need an Event Loop action in the pink On Fail box of the Check action.
Bob
