NAME

EPrints::MetaField::Recaptcha - a Captcha

User Comments


DESCRIPTION

Please refer to the notes in EPRINTS_PATH/archives/[ARCHIVEID]/cfg/cfg.d/recaptcha.pl.

If this files does not exist, copy [EPRINTS_ROOT]/lib/defaultcfg/cfg.d/recaptcha.pl.example to the path above and edit it.

This field uses the Google "reCAPTCHA" service (https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/) and renders a Captcha (a test that humans can easily pass, but robots shouldn't be able to).

Note: This MetaField was updated in October 2017 to reCAPTCHA v2. The previous version of reCAPTCHA will cease to work in March 2018.

Kudos to Matthew Kerwin (https://github.com/phluid61) for most of the work on the new version.
