I understand that reCaptcha has been hacked as recently as April 2016. Not a big fan of using Captcha or reCaptcha, is there anything else that can be used to validate human/nonhuman identities? Something that is free and maybe not easy to hack? --[[User:Colin Fraser|Colin Fraser]] ([[User talk:Colin Fraser|talk]]) 17:06, 19 September 2016 (AWST)

Revision as of 09:11, 19 September 2016

Not sure how long it has been (at least Moodle 2.5) since it was changed however to enable ReCAPTCHA you need to go to:

Site administration > Plugins > Authentication > Manage authentication

... not ...

Site Administration > Users > Authentication > Manage authentication.

Please update the Security FAQ as there is no Authentication under Users.

Best regards,

Michael Milette
