CAPTCHA Handler Plugins

Beginning with VuFind 7.0, different CAPTCHA methods can be configured to prevent automated agents from accessing protected features of VuFind.

Key Plugin Details

Default Namespace: \VuFind\Captcha

Required Base Class: \VuFind\Captcha\AbstractBase

Service Locator Configuration Section in module.config.php: ['vufind']['plugin_managers']['captcha']

Service Manager Name for Service Locator: VuFind\Captcha\PluginManager

Template Name: To display the CAPTCHA control, VuFind will attempt to load a template from the Captcha folder of the current theme whose name corresponds with the class of the plugin (ignoring the namespace). The template will have access to the plugin object as $this→captcha.
