## Description

The new generation “IceCaptcha” plugin.

The new security system presupposes clicking on the circle of a particular color
instead of entering numbers or other redundant actions. It is done instead of clicking
on the button, i.e. no spare action is required!

As for the bots or foreign captcha entering services, the task practically can’t
be solved as the circle is drawn randomly in various places, it is of random color
and the background (the picture itself) is also different every time. The click 
spot coordinates are encrypted and sent to the server where the checkup is performed.
This all brings us to the fact that there is no chance of switching or calculating
the correct result for any third party software.

You can use our captcha for: • Registering new users • Authenticating users • Commenting
anti spam security

## Installation

You have to perform just a few simple steps to install IceCaptcha:

 1. Upload plugin to the `/wp-content/plugins/` folder
 2. Activate the plugin in the admin panel
 3. Configure the plugin in the plugin menu if you feel the necessity to do it.

## FAQ

#### How do I change the size of the circle?

You can indicate optional circle radius in the plugin settings inside your admin
panel. The default size is set to 10.

#### What do I need the `scale` for?

Scale is used to change the size of the captcha itself (the picture). Let’s say 
you’ve got some specific commentaries’ form design with no room for the standard“
big” captcha, in this case you can adjust the size of the captcha and make it smaller(
e.g. 0.8) to have it perfectly fitting your design.

#### What are the numbers in the scale?

That’s quite simple, 1 constitutes 100% of the standard captcha size. WordPress 
uses 0.92, which corresponds to the 92%. If you need a bigger captcha you are welcome
to set any value larger than 1, e.g., 1.2 or 1.33 (120% or 133% correspondingly),
if you want a smaller one, than it will work vice versa, e.g – 0.65 (65%).

#### Is Icecaptcha free?

Yes!
