plone.formwidget.recaptcha 3.0.0

ReCaptcha widget for Plone.

Introduction

plone.formwidget.recaptcha is a z3c.form ReCaptcha widget for use with Plone.

It is a z3c.form re-implementation of the collective.recaptcha package original written by David Glick.

Buildout Installation

Add the following code to your buildout.cfg to install plone.formwidget.recaptcha:

[buildout]
...

[instance]
...
eggs =
    ...
    plone.formwidget.recaptcha
    ...

ReCaptcha setup

There is a control panel at http://path/to/site/@@recaptcha-settings to configure the Addon. Google provides a set of test keys, that can be used to try out the recaptcha form and documentation at https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/faq.

Site key: 6LeIxAcTAAAAAJcZVRqyHh71UMIEGNQ_MXjiZKhI

Secret key: 6LeIxAcTAAAAAGG-vFI1TnRWxMZNFuojJ4WifJWe

To actually use the service, you must obtain a site key and secret key from developers.google.com/recaptcha

Usage

The ReCaptcha validator will be enabled by default in all of your forms that use the ReCaptcha Field and Widget.

See the demo folder inside the distribution for an example usage.

Supermodel

You can add a captcha field in an XML model by adding something like this:

<field name="captcha" type="plone.formwidget.recaptcha.ReCaptchaWidget">
  <title>Solve Captcha</title>
  <description></description>
</field>

Upgrade to API v3

plone.formwidget.recaptcha 3.* allows to use both v3 and v3 reCaptcha. plone.formwidget.recaptcha 2.* uses V2 of the reCaptcha API. Users upgrading from plone.formwidget.recaptcha 1.* will therefore need to generate new keys as global Keys are not supported in the V2 API.
