This plugin provides a Google reCAPTCHA V3 field for subscribe pages. See https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/index.html
for information on how reCAPTCHA works.

You can select whether to include reCAPTCHA for each individual subscribe page.

See the README file on the GitHub page https://github.com/bramley/phplist-plugin-recaptchav3 for how to install or upgrade the plugin.

To use reCAPTCHA you will need to have a Google account (such as a gmail address).
See https://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin

The plugin supports the v3 type of reCAPTCHA which has no user interaction. reCAPTCHA calculates a score for each subscription attempt. If the score is lower than a configurable threshold then the subscription attempt is rejected.

See https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/versions for an explanation of the different types of reCAPTCHA.

When registering a new site you need to enter the domain on which phplist is installed, e.g. mysite.com, there is no need to include www or a sub-domain.

On the Settings page you must specify:

• The reCAPTCHA site key and secret key obtained by registering for the reCAPTCHA service.
• The threshold for treating a subscription attempt as spam.

When you create or edit a subscribe page you can select to include reCAPTCHA when that page is displayed. The default is to not include reCAPTCHA.
