Is the reCaptcha bundle still maintained? Alternative?

It looks to me that the KonstantinCodes/mautic-recaptcha plugin is abandoned.
Mostly, because there are issues and PRs that are not addressed for years.

Are there any alternatives? Anybody else interested in this functionality?

We are currently collecting interest for the GDPR compliant https://friendlycaptcha.com/ in order to develop a plugin.

Whoever is interested in supporting the development financially, please get into contact with me. We will share the plugin as soon as possible and provide some time of plugin maintenance included with the initial funding. Based on interest and usage, we can also extend the further maintenance of the planned plugin.

We are interested in a good maintaned recaptcha plugin. In my opinion a good anti spam solution is essential. We currently install a Google Recaptcha plugin with every Mautic installation.

I know that we had some difficulty with Mautic 5. I will ask my colleagues for more information when appropriate.

For now we are not interested in Friendly Captcha. Not my personal preference but that of the company.

I already implemented 2fa to m5, but not Captcha, if it is until I can check and share in github. Maybe I need to update somethings…

I’m working on a fork of GitHub - KonstantinCodes/mautic-recaptcha: This Plugin brings reCAPTCHA integration to mautic.. We will update it to the latest version and publish it here soon.

@lenonleite would be interested to know more about the 2fa.

Thank you for updating the 2FA. I created a PR a long time ago with the old one, but it was never merged :frowning:

Hi @adiux , any news here already? :slight_smile:

Hi @ekke, yes there is progress. The version 4 is live, and I’m currently reviewing the v5 PR. Before we can publish it, we need to fix some documentation. But it won’t be long.

Nice!!!

Hi, I developed a friendly captcha integration. In case you are interested, the latest commit should work with Mautic 5. If you need support for v4, the first commit might work.

As of right now, both friendly challenge scripts are hardcoded and need plugin updates. In future, I will add a setting to ignore those scripts when building the form. Thus, you would be able to add them straight to your site.

Hi there, any news about recaptcha for Mautic 5 and php 8.1? I tried to fix the github module with no luck… i cannot use Mautic without recaptcha because i receive about 600 spam subscriptons per day. Honeypot is not blocking spam

can you check the branch dev_mautic5 of recaptcha plugin from here: Plugins for Mautic 4 & 5 ?

I´m going into a more easy solution.
I´m building an addon for elementor that integrates elementor forms with mautic via API, so you can select the segment where the contact will add doing action after submit in elementor.

This will solve 2 things:

1- Elementor forms perfect integration
2- Spam abuse because you don´t need to build a form in mautic, just a form in elemento where you can use elementor honeypot + Recaptcha

Sounds like an interesting approach.

How will you handle fields, that are in the form - but don’t necessarily need to the saved to the contact? I think of events and participation of sessions for instance. That would be some temporary information, which I wouldn’t want to extend the custom fields of the contact - just for that.

I have been testing the plugin today, and it works perfectly.
When you add a form typical fields are mapped (name, email, phone….) also you can map your custom fields, and… thinking in your question i will add an exception, for example if you introduce at any field an id startnig with “nomap”, for example nomap1, nomap2 for 2 fields you don’t want send to mautic, this to fields will be ignored when sending data to mautic.

What do you think about? Can this solve your question?

I thought about the way around - where would you like to store form result data, that will not be mapped to the contact? Will this data be stored in Elementor (out of reach for a mautic campaign)? Or will you not have any need for that type of form data?

You can setup more than 1 after submit, so with the nomap solution you just say you don’t want to send this to the mautic contact, you can setup a second after submit and send all data where you want… because would be really difficult and infinite possibilites if you use the after submit of my plugin to say…. This no map field send it to whatevwer, because you can decide to send it to an email, to your crm, to gdrive… possibilities are really big

And if you want use this data in a campaign maybe you need to send this data to mautic
