Math Captcha for Elementor Forms

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 · 100% 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.

   The code this is based on (ebcaptcha), and thus this plugin, only disable the submit button in client-side JavaScript. For humans, this is easily bypassed using the DOM inspector. For bots, it has no effect at all because they POST form data directly, and don’t actually use the form like human would. There is no server-side validation. This makes forms appear to be protected, and slows down real humans, but fails at its primary purpose.

   Es kommen genau so viele Spam-Mails wie ohne diesese Plugin. Ich sehe keinerlei Wirkung. Außerdem ist mit den beschränkten Einstellungsmöglichkeiten, keine vernünftige und optisch ansprechende Integration möglich.

   Simple, functional. Does what is says. And configurable (like, remove the multiplication puzzle, which might be too complicated for some 🙂 thank you

   Very good concept, very easy to use, no Google reCAPTCHA keys required, but, would be nice if we could add a custom label and could control the width of input text field.

   I had sent a message to Albano Toska to know if it was possible to enable only addition and subtraction, and he added this feature the same day, I just needed to update the plugin to take advantage of it 🙂

   This protection is just javascript-wise without serverside re-validation of the input. It just adds an additonal obstacle to a real user. Additional it looks ugly and has no predefined styling options available. It doesn’t stop any serios spam bot. In its current state, this plugin is useless.
