Simple captcha plugin for CakePHP. Presents a text field with a simple math problem (plus some invisible checks).

See: https://github.com/Schlaefer/cakephp-simple-captcha

Install

composer require siezi/cakephp-simple-captcha

Include plugin Cake 4 style:

$this->addPlugin(\Siezi\SimpleCaptcha\Plugin::class);

Usage Example

Insert Captcha-Field in Template

Load the helper CakePHP 4 style:

$this->loadHelper('Siezi/SimpleCaptcha.SimpleCaptcha');

In template form:

echo $this->SimpleCaptcha->control();

Validate Captcha in Controller

$validator = new \Siezi\SimpleCaptcha\Model\Validation\SimpleCaptchaValidator();
$errors = $validator->validate($this->request->getData());

Depending on the form you may want to merge the captcha-errors so they are displayed automatically with other form validation errors. For example if the form is backed by a user-entity:

$yourUserEntity->setErrors($errors);
