[rz] Simple Captcha *** UPD 2020-Apr-20 ***

[rz] Simple Captcha - v1.4.3

This lightweight extension allows you to put a simple captcha in your forms to prevent robots to send spam.

It is very simple yet highly customizable to fit your design needs, is cross-browser compatible and even supports old ones.

The validation process is done before the form is sent and in the natural order of each element. In case of wrong entries, messages are received in the same screen and you do not need to go back to reenter the correct values.

How to use?

1. Design your form as you usually do.
2. Setup the form validation rules (if applies, it is up to you).
3. Drag and drop the extension (must be on top of the form's elements and within the form!).
4. For optimal results, be sure that it is on top of all of the form elements and before the send button.
5. Optionally, you can setup borders, color, fonts and styles, even a kind of "visual-noise".
6. Preview or publish (remember: to send messages, you need php!).

Enjoy!


Notes:

If you are also using the [rz] Form Placeholders extension, both extensions must be within the form in the following order:

1. the form itself
2. all of the entry objects and other form elements
4. the [rz] Form Placeholder extension
5. the [rz] Simple Captcha
6. the send button
7. optionally, the clear/reset form button

It is highly recommended to follow the abovementioned order for optimal results, even if you are not using the [rz] Form Placeholders extension.
