 * 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
