    Hi

    Is there a way to add captcha to the login process? My site has been flooded with 6k random crypto requests that have all come from the event app. Thanks

    Hi Bernice,

    Thanks for reporting this. Sorry to hear you’ve been hit with spam registrations.

    I’ve just released version 1.6.0 which adds exactly what you need. It includes:

    • A honeypot field — active automatically, no setup required. Catches simple bots that blindly fill in all form fields.
    • CAPTCHA support — choose between Google reCAPTCHA v2 (checkbox), Google reCAPTCHA v3 (invisible, no user interaction needed), or hCaptcha (privacy-friendly alternative).
    • A log of blocked attempts — visible under WP Admin → Volunteers so you can see what’s being stopped.

    To enable CAPTCHA after updating:

    1. Go to Settings → General → Security
    2. Choose your preferred provider
    3. Paste in your site key and secret key from the provider’s admin console
      All three providers have a free tier that’s more than sufficient for a volunteer registration form.

    Please update to 1.6.0 and let me know if that clears up the spam for you! Also let me know if something does not work as intended. I tested it on my end but for first time integrators there is always a bit more risk attached 😉

    Best,
    David
