Math Captcha Addon

Addon for Friendica 2019.03 and later.

Translations

You can translate this addon by translating the strings in the lang/C/messages.po file and copy the resulting messages.po to the lang/LNG_CODE directory of your language.. To generate the needed strings.php file for your language, use the tools Friendica supplies.

Custom Themes

If your theme does supply an alternative registration form, you need to supply a modified version of the form to the addon or the addons default template will be used. Your theme specific template needs to be placed in

/addon/matchcaptcha/templates/theme/THEME_NAME/register.tpl

and has to contain the following new fields

<h4>{{$captchaTitle}}</h4>
<p>{{$captchaDescription}}</p>
{{include file="field_input.tpl" field=$mathcaptcha}}

at the correct position of the form.
