Hello.
I’ve seen a few posts here about how people want to use Captcha and can’t because this theme doesn’t have a dedicated plugin or widget for it.
1. Search for “Gab Captcha 2” in your Plugins section on WordPress.
2. Install it. It would now show up in Settings section.
3. Change the options to fit your needs in the ‘Settings > Gab Captcha 2′ menu in your WordPress administration area
4. If you don’t want to receive an email after each spam has been catches:
4.1. Go to the ‘Settings > Discussion’ menu
4.1.1. Uncheck the following checkbox:
“E-mail me whenever > Anyone posts a comment”
Check the following checkbox:
“Before a comment appears > An administrator must always approve the comment”
Uncheck the following checkbox:
“Before a comment appears > Comment author must have a previously approved comment”
4.1.2. Uncheck the following checkbox:
“E-mail me whenever > A comment is held for moderation”
4.2. Go to the ‘Settings > Gab Captcha 2′ menu
4.2.1 Choose ‘yes’ for ‘Automatically approve comments who passed the test’ (only if you want to real reviews to be posted right away from a real person). Make sure to enter the Captcha length and the solution lenth. Keep them at the same number (i used 6).
4.2.2 Method to output the Captcha should be – CSS: improved security, compatible with CSS-capable browsers.
Hope this helps. I’m attaching a couple of images for people to look at if they are lost.
