Hi.

Did you watch the video? I have explained that.

The plugin doesn’t require for any user input, or hidden fields as it is based uppon a proof-of-work-approach. In order to test the plugin, you can check the new inbox “ReCaptcha GDPR Messages” for form submissions.

If you want to simulate messages and spam messages you can just do the following:

• Clean submissions: Submit your forms and you should find the entries in the respective inbox as well as at the point where you usually receive your form submissions.
• Navigate via Plugins->GDPR Compliant ReCaptcha … -> Properties and check “simulate spam” and “save spam messages”. Having done so you can submit your forms again and the respective messages shell appear in you spam inbox, but not at the point where you usually receive them. Important: Uncheck “simulate spam” afterwards, as otherwise each form submission would be treated as spam

Cheers, Matthias

Hi.

If I understand your problem correctly, you are using a Plugin from IT-Rechts-Kanzlei that updates your AGB automatically via a web form and you are seeking for a solution to whitelist the IP of their server, that automatically fills your webform that updates the AGB.

Unfortunately the plugin up to now doesn’t support whitelisting and I don’t see a solution like just updating functions.php.

I see the following possible solution:

1. I will add this feature to the plugin as soon as I find some time for that, as it absolutely makes sense.
2. If you feel comfortable with PHP, until then you can hack the plugin’s code to get a work-around. For instance you can change the code of the plugin’s file “class-stamp.php” in the plugin’s “includes”-folder from line 35 to 53 by wrapping the code of the __construct – function with a conditional check on the IP-address. ( But beware: This code-example is untested )

public function __construct()
{
    if( $this->get_client_ip() !== '142.132.160.229' ){
        ...
    }
}

As soon as I publish the next version, you need to add the IP to the respective whitelist. And the “work-around” will be overwritten.

Cheers, Matthias

If you still get spam, the plugin seems to be not working at all. There may be many reasons for that.

If you have trouble using it, just ask your questions in the support forum. Up to know, everyone who asked got it working.

Hi Christoph.

It should work for Divi forms already.

You don’t need to choose it as “Spam protection service” at Divi forms explicitly. As soon as you have installed the plugin, it should block all spam. Thus you can deactivate the spam protection setting at the Divi form element.

If you still receive any spam messages, or you feel that the plugin doesn’t work, we can have a call and have a look on it together.

Cheers, Matthias

Hi.

I have just updated the plugin to save the hash puzzles into the database.

As soon as you have updated the plugin it is important to empty the cache one time.

Cheers, Matthias

Solved

Hi.

you can also try the following ReCaptcha, which is based upon a proof-of-work concept, what makes DDoS-attacks pretty unattractive:

I am curious for feedback.

Cheers, Matthias

Reading this, I wonder whether I better should save this stuff to the database. I’ll put it on the list.

Cheers

Ok. Solved with emptying the cache and deleting the file with the stamps.

Now I have the same problem. I’ll fix it

Pooh…

I had a picture in my mind about many users sitting in front of their login-screen being logged out from their admin area. Thanks for the quick feedback ??

Hi.

“check_stamp” is intended to post only.

Unfortunately I cannot rebuilt the erroneous behaviour. Two thinks may help:

1. Clean the cache on server-side one time.
2. Delete the file which contains the puzzles

If none of them helps, we can have a look on it together. Just write me a pm.

Cheers

Hi thanks a lot!

I got some Feedback on a 500 error, but I couldn’t reproduce it up to now. And now the users fix the plugin :-). The approach seems to be more resilient against empty lines in the stamp file. I updated, tested and released it as the vptcnt-dedicated-version #2.1.4

One question: Do you still have the specific php-error of your error-log? As I cannot reproduce it, it would be great if you could post it too.

Cheers, Matthias

Hey Alex.

How cool is that? Thank you for reporting me the I18N Issues.

Sorry, for answering your request so lately:

I have stopped to support this plugin, as I have replaced it by another recaptcha-plugin that works an all forms and logins, not just on CF7.

Check this one:

I need to check whether?I18N are all correct there. I am really lame with using GitHub. But I think it could be useful to release it there. I have put it on my task list ??

Cheers, Matthias
