Really Simple CAPTCHA for cformsII

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 57% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

   This works just fine. I’m not sure why the 1 star review. Installed. Then installed the plug-in that it utilizes. Choose ‘really simple captcha’ from ‘type’ in the fieldset dropdowns for your forms in form settings. Options are minimal but effective. If you can code stuff, then you can go into the file cforms2_really_simple_captcha.php and edit line 139 and rename the label from CAPTCHA to, say, ‘Please Enter the info…’ Ultimately I rearranged them like this so they flowed better. It’s not super neat but it works. $req = '<label for="'.$input_id.'" class="secq"><span>Please enter the letters from the CAPTCHA window:</span></label>' . '<input type="text" style="margin-top:-10px; margin-right:5px; margin-bottom:4px; height:27px; width:100px;" name="'.$this->get_id().'" id="'.$input_id.'" ' . 'class="'.$input_classes.'" title="'.$input_title.'"/>' . '<img class="cforms2_really_simple_captcha_img" style="padding-top:5px; background:#565656" alt="CAPTCHA" src="'.$info['url'].'" />' . '<span class="dashicons dashicons-update captcha-reset"></span>' . '<input type="hidden" name="'.$this->get_id().'/hint" value="' . $info['hint'] . '"/>'; This topic was modified 7 years, 9 months ago by Michael D.
