It is not compatible with PHP 8.1

Security support for PHP 8.1 by its developers ends in less than 2 months, active support already ended almost 2 years ago so it's perfectly fine this isn't supported.

I’m using this add-on and it works well.

I see that ALTCHA v3 has been released.

Will there be a new version of ALTACHA CAPTCHA add-on?

I have integrated it in 2.0.0 add-on, but I don't know why the hideLogo and hideFooter settings for the Widget are not working.

Although v3 is running stably now, I believe using the Widget v2 is the most stable choice.

 

[Mike S]

Okay, thanks. I'll give it a try and see how it goes.

How do we get the API key? I just couldn't find a way to do it.

 

[Chromaniac]

heh yeah. documentation is not very clear about the key. are we supposed to just enter a random long string of text? or we are to get it from altcha. i am assuming first one since this addon does not rely on althca servers?

 

[Dragonfruit]

I even Googled on how to do it, Gemini provided me instructions which didn't seem to match or work on the page it was directing me to.

 

[Chromaniac]

i entered a random string of text and it seems to work fine for me. i haven't tried creating a new account but using the contact us form and other areas where captcha are used appear to work fine.

Sorry for the confusion. The “Private Secret Key” is not an ALTCHA API key.

Just enter your own long random string there. The add-on uses it as the private HMAC secret.

I have updated the README to make this clearer.

Is minDuration fixed in v3?

Although v3 is running stably now, I believe using the Widget v2 is the most stable choice.

And is v2 still the most stable choice?
