=======

[](#captcha)

> Captcha is a Statamic addon that makes a classic captcha available for Statamic forms.

--------

- Provide Tags to use in your Forms

Accessibility Notice
--------------------

[](#accessibility-notice)

How to Install
--------------

[](#how-to-install)

You can search for this addon in the `Tools > Addons` section of the Statamic control panel and click **install**, or run the following command from your project root:

```
composer require redcodede/captcha
```

How to Use
----------

[](#how-to-use)

### 1. Install the addon

[](#1-install-the-addon)

Install the Captcha addon into your Statamic project as described in **How to Install**.

### 2. Add new validation rule

[](#2-add-new-validation-rule)

To use the Captcha in your form you need to add a new validation rule. Do this by running `php artisan make:rule VerifyCaptcha` in your terminal.

The new rule should contain these methods:

`public function passes($attribute, mixed $value): bool{    try {        if (strtolower($_SESSION['phrase']) === strtolower($value)) {            Captcha::refreshCaptcha();            return true;        } else {            return false;        }    } catch(\Exception $e) {        return false;    }}``public function message(): string{return '__(validation.verify_captcha)';}`

The message handles the error messages you may want to define in resources > lang.

**Extending App Service Provider**Extending the App Service Provider is no longer necessary.

### 4. Add your form field

[](#4-add-your-form-field)

Your form needs to contain a text form field with the validation rules `required` and `captcha`.

### 5. Include the captcha into your form template

[](#5-include-the-captcha-into-your-form-template)

The form template should include the `{{ refresh_captcha }}` tag to generate a new captcha on reloading the form to get a fresh one every time.

Your form field template should include an img tag with the src of `{{ captcha_image }}`. This that will provide you with the image URL.

You can also add a button which will let the user generate another captcha image. `generate new captcha image`

Now you should be all set to use the Captcha on your own Website.
