i want ask if in the next version of the forum you can consider to allow board admin to activate captcha also on the contact form.
This can be done with an optional checkbox. Why this? I see some spambot has started to attack the forum on the contact form page.
I start a discussion on the phpbb support forum here.
As from admin i never understand why the forum is protected from bot registration but not from spamming message on the contact form.
The support has given to me an interesting explain: what to do if an user cannot register for the captcha and cannot contact you on the contact form because is protected?
I suppose if the user has issue with the captcha the issue is not on the forum but on the user. If is in the forum the forum should not show captcha if this is not working but i see for ReCaptcha all necessary check on the setup process are done.
Anyway admin board should have a possibility to decide to activate bot prevention also on contact form
