* captcha! in plogger

Posted on July 6th, 2007 by Alex. Filed under Projects.

Recently some spammers discovered the gallery powered by plogger and started to fill up the comments with some non-sense. Therefore I integrated Captcha! to verify, if a real person is writing a comment or just a spammer’s script. So far it is an efficient method to keep those annoying people away.
A free Captcha! is Gotcha!,

An example of Gotcha!

which runs on PHP and is easy to integrate. Since the deep integration of plogger into wordpress I am still running plogger in the version beta 1 and I did not upgrade so far. Maybe I will do that in the near future, so that I can give you some diff files. If you have some information about the integration into newer versions of plogger, let me know.

Thanks for the good read. I must question a couple of points. Should I post them here or should I email you.

Hey, I am not using plogger anymore. The gallery is provided by NextGEN Gallery, a wordpress plugin which makes the updating and integration hassle free.

And in the end I figured out that the option to comment on images was not necessary.
