Hi

I'm having problems with a lot of spam registrations on the site and I want the registration form to have a captcha to mitigate spam registration.
The recaptcha plugin is installed on the site and is configured with the appropriate credentials, it is activated in the global configuration recaptcha as the default captcha, in the user options the use of recaptcha is configured, there is no override of the registration form view.
But the captcha is not available on the user registration screen.

What am I missing to check or configure?

Thank you very much!

Hi,

HikaShop's registration form does not support Joomla's captcha system by default.
You have 3 options here:
- We've developed an integration plugin to make the link between Joomla's captcha system and HikaShop:
www.hikashop.com/marketplace/product/281...-joomla-captcha.html
- Historically, we had our own Recaptcha plugin before Joomla even integrated a captcha system:
www.hikashop.com/support/documentation/7...-with-recaptcha.html
This plugin supports both HikaShop's and Joomla's registration forms. If you use this, you need to deactivate Joomla's captcha system.
- Lately, captchas has becoming less and less useful with the improvements made by AI and bots. We've stopped using Captchas on our end and we've switched to this extension which works better:
extensions.joomla.org/extension/ospam-a-not/
So maybe you want to try this out.
