FunCaptcha v2 The biggest update to FunCaptcha yet has begun its official rollout! For a detailed look at the ongoing updates, feel free to follow our blog as we'll be updating it as new features are activated, going in-depth with what's changing, why and how each area is seeing improvement. Description Spammers abuse your site, but users hate typing out twisty letters or ad phrases (aka CAPTCHA and reCAPTCHA). Automated spam filters make mistakes and require constant checking. FunCaptcha presents a mini-game that blocks the bots while giving your users a few moments of fun. It's a real security solution hardened by experts and automatically updated to provide the best protection. It has been installed on thousands of sites, to glowing reviews. Try a demo on our site! Users complete these little games faster than other CAPTCHAs, with fewer frustrating failures and no typing. They work on all browsers and mobile devices, using HTML5 with a fallback to Flash. Visually impaired users can complete an audio challenge. For a limited time, FunCaptcha can be customized for your site, using its color scheme, images, and logo. See this special offer for details. Read about FunCaptcha on NBC. Learn more, give feedback, and ask questions at our website. Our epic battle against bots doesn't have to be a headache. Let's fight while having some fun! We're also a partner of stopforumspam.com - and use their API to raise the difficulty of FunCaptcha for suspect bots. Installation
Patch notes: 1.2.1 • Toggle JavaScript fallback on/off (disabled by default for security reasons). We recommend it disabled as bots generally browse with JavaScript disabled. 1.2.0 • Color themes. You can now change the look of FunCaptcha! • Support for versions of PHP without JSON or CURL. • Proxy server support. 1.1.0 • Lightbox mode. This exposes a new display mode for FunCaptcha, it will make FunCaptcha appear when your user hits submit, rather than inline in the form. 1.0.0 • First release. Download Now Only licensed members can download files, Click Here for more information. Show Your Support

1.2 update
Hello everyone,
I'd like to announce we are now a partner of stopforumspam.com and use their API to scale the difficulty of FunCaptcha even further, so if your user is a listed bot, they'll get a harder challenge. We have also just updated our plugin to version 1.2. This update includes some new features. Firstly and mainly, we have added support to change the color scheme of FunCaptcha, currently there are 4 options. We have also added support for Proxy servers and versions of PHP without CURL and JSON support and some other misc bug fixes, as well as now including a version check URL. Any questions or feature requests, please let us know! Kind regards, FunCaptcha team ![]() No members have liked this post.

We find great online communities, look at them with our own human eyeballs, determine what kind of solution it needs, assess its visual theme (so we can customize FunCaptcha to suit it personally), and send the message by hand. We're sorry if it annoyed you, we'll keep trying to do better so we don't give the wrong impression to admins. We welcome any more feedback-- please send us a PM and we'll incorporate your feedback.

Since installing this plugin spambots have been able to get past it.

They are probably using a program such as XRumer, which the program is able to bypass security techniques commonly used by many forums and blogs to deter automated spam, such as account registration, client detection, CAPTCHAs, and e-mail activation before posting.

We've been using a strong text CAPTCHA as a fallback if Javascript is disabled. We've just disabled that feature for now (done remotely, no update to plugins required) as we know XRumer is known to be able to crack that, and we'll look at a better way to provide javascript fallback that remains secure. We may update the plugin giving admins the option to enable it, with it disabled by default, based on some further research into the issue. Regards, FunCaptcha team No members have liked this post.

This is because captchas are obsolete and all they really do is annoy legitimate humans.

Hello all,
Version 1.2.1 is now released. It gives site admins the option to have the fallback to text CAPTCHA enabled (allowing compatibility with older browsers and users who disable JS), or the fallback disabled (which is more secure). From this version forward, the fallback will be disabled by default, so if you install this and still want FunCaptcha to fallback to a text CAPTCHA when JavaScript is disabled, you will need to go into the settings to enable the fallback. If the fallback is disabled and JavaScript is disabled, users see a message prompting them to enable JavaScript. Why this change? After a thorough review, we find that some spamming programs can easily solve many text CAPTCHAs, including those we could use when the user has JavaScript disabled. These programs can pretend to be a browser with JavaScript disabled. For maximum protection, we recommend keeping the fallback to text CAPTCHA disabled. As always, we are dedicated to keeping the bots out while giving your users a faster, easier experience. Kind regards, FunCaptcha team No members have liked this post.
