CAPTCHA stands for "Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart". These tests are used to ensure that your site is not subjected to automated attacks/spam from bots attempting to register or log in to your site. Customers must enter the text seen in the CAPTCHA image (which computers cannot read) before they can log in:
Setup
- Head here: https://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin/create and select the reCaptcha type of reCaptcha v2. Note: do not use "Get Started with Enterprise" .
- Select "I am not a robot" checkbox, input your live site url and then choose "Submit".
Your initial setup in reCAPTCHA management will look something like this:
The next screen will provide both the site key and secret key. These values will need to added into your store settings under Configuration > Settings.
Setting Name | Description |
reCAPTCHA.SiteKey | The 'Site Key' value from your Google reCAPTCHA account. |
reCAPTCHA.SecretKey | The 'Secret Key' value from your Google reCAPTCHA account. |
Google reCaptcha can be enabled on the following pages:
Setting Name | Page URL/Location |
reCAPTCHA.RequiredOnAeSerivceTicket | AeServiceTicket.aspx |
reCAPTCHA.RequiredOnCheckout | ShoppingCart.aspx |
reCAPTCHA.RequiredOnContactForm | Contact.aspx |
reCAPTCHA.RequiredOnCreateAccount | CreateAccount.aspx |
reCAPTCHA.RequiredOnEmailMe | "Email me when back in stock" link from product pages |
reCAPTCHA.RequiredOnEmailProduct | EmailProduct.aspx |
reCAPTCHA.RequiredOnPasswordReset | Account/RequestPasswordReset.aspx |
reCAPTCHA.RequiredOnStoreLogin | SignIn.aspx |
Once the setting values are updated make sure to Refresh Store.
