*The* captcha plugin to use.
-
Myself, among others (including Cloudflare back in 2020; they have a blog post about it), moved from reCAPTCHA to hCaptcha with it generally being a nicer experience as a developer, manager, and end-user.
This plugin is then instrumental in facilitating hCaptcha on sites. It’s then great that there’s an official plugin (unlike needing to choose from a handful of 3rd party options where each has their own trade-offs and has a more uncertain support & ongoing development compared to being able to use an official offering.
It’s also great to see this plugin is active on GitHub (with the plugin’s FAQ section in the plugin details pointing people to this) so we can get the combined efforts that might’ve otherwise been someone creating their own separate plugin (instead, they can add/update what they need in the official plugin for a better overall result.)
Finally, their plugin integration/support with anything/everything that might want/need a CAPTCHA is one of the best I’ve seen in a CAPTCHA plugin (even outside of plugins that are just for hCaptcha.) They’re still actively adding more support as of the release made just today (also adding hooks/filters for developers, making sure modern PHP is being accounted for properly, etc.) It definitely makes one think this is the best way to go for any type of CAPTCHA (then the hCaptcha service being one of the best options out there.)
