Bethico Captcha: plg_bethico_captcha

  1. Install plg_bethico_captcha
  2. Enable plugin and check settings
  3. Set Blacklist file if you want the plugin to register IPs of detected bots. Currently, a bot is detected if a form field is filled, one which is hiddent to humans. The Blacklist file path is relative to the document root of the Joomla installation the plugin is activated for. Add something like '../../ipblacklist.conf' to have the file written to a path outside of the document root. This way, the file can be shared by all instances the plugin is active in. Make sure the folder where ipblacklist.conf resides in is writeable for the apache user. IPs are not recorded if the file path is empty.
  4. Set Server restart command to the command used to reload config or restart the server for the newly blocked IP to be recognized. On a debian system this would be '/etc/init.d/apache2 reload' which needs to be executed as root, so enter 'sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload' here. You also need to make sure that the apache user is allowed to run the command without password in the sudoers file. You may leave the command empty to avoid executing any command after a bot IP has been detected.
