    Hi,

    I’d like to ask about anti-spam security for forms:

    1/ Is enabling ‘Honeypot’ in ‘General/Miscellaneous settings’ enough for Security without installing google reCaptcha?

    2/ Alternatively, can I add a field in the form of a simple mathematical challenge such as a quiz instead of reCaptcha? If so, how do I go about it?

    Thanks,

    Hello @davidovic123,

    Thank for your query.

    Enabling the Honeypot security feature indeed provides basic anti-spam security for forms without the need for installing Google reCaptcha. Honeypot catches spam bots, ensuring a reliable level of security. But it is difficult to say whether it would be enough or not. Additionally, integrating Google reCaptcha enhances protection by presenting a challenge-response test for users. Combining both significantly strengthens your form’s security against spam.

    However, there is no option to add mathematical challenges or quizzes instead of reCaptcha.

    Thank you.
