Anti-Spam Options - reCAPTCHA v2 Human Verification

(Note: This mod was renamed. The original name was "New reCAPTCHA Human Verification")

What is it?
----------------------------
This mod adds reCAPTCHA v2 as an option in the Human Verification Manager.

Note: The original reCAPTCHA used default keys if you didn't enter your own, so you could leave the key fields blank. This version requires you to have your own keys for your domain. To create them, go to this page (click on the "Get reCAPTCHA" button). It can take a short time after creating the keys before they will work, so if you get "ERROR: Invalid domain for site key", wait a while and try again.

vb4 version is here: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=315960

Installation:
----------------------------
1) Upload the file in the "upload" folder to your server.

2) Import the product XML file from the Product Manager.

3) If you don't already have keys, go to this page and create keys for your domain. (If you already have keys you can get them from that page as well).

4) Go to Settings > Human Verification Manager, select "New reCAPTCHA" for the Verification Library, and click Save.

5) Enter your keys on the options page, and select the light or dark widget as desired (apparently white and black are the only options at this time). You could select "Audio" to default to audio instead of image for the challenge, but the widget seems to have a bug in it at the moment so I recommend leaving it set to "image". Click Save when you're done selecting options.

6) You can check the configuration and do a test by clicking on "Click here to test connection" which appears under the description in the Human Verification Manager.

7) Do a test registration (or other action that requires hv) to test that your keys are entered correctly and everything is working.

8) If you are upgrading from version 0.9, you can remove the file includes/class_humanverify_newrecaptcha.php (the one without the third underscore) from your server.

History:
----------------------------
1.0 (Feb 22, 2015)

• Cached template (required renaming the uploaded file from
  class_humanverify_newrecaptcha.php to class_humanverify_new_recaptcha.php)
• Removed default keys (which didn't work anyway)
• Removed trademark symbols
• Changed execution order of plugins from 5 to 4, to make sure this product
  works with another HV add-on that has a bug.
• If "New reCAPTCHA" is selected when this mod is uninstalled, the hv library
  is switched to 'disabled'.
• Added a test option to print out more information about verification failures

0.9 (Dec 11, 2014)

• Initial Release

Gotha,

I didn't need to make any edits to line 8 but I'm still using PHP 5.6.x. Can't be sure it isn't different on PHP7.

Worked fine with vB 3.8.4

I've repackaged this add-on into a 1.0.1 version, which you can download below. The main change is incorporating the required PHP fix. So, this will work properly with vBulletin 3.8.11 and PHP 5.6/7.0/7.1. It should also work with earlier versions, though the minimum PHP version required is probably something like PHP 5.3.

I also updated all the UI elements to refer to the feature as "reCAPTCHA v2" instead of "New reCAPTCHA". I also updated the readme docs, correcting errors and typos.

Just deployed this update to my 3.8.11/PHP 5.6.31 site and it works as advertised. The previous 1.0 version survived config/test, but threw an error on the actual registration page.

Thanks for the module.

Maybe I messed something up here. Running vbulletin 3.8.7 patch level 6, I upload the file and imported the product xml with no issue but when I go to human verification I only see whats in the attached screenshot, assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Same here.

You're looking in the wrong place. reCAPTCHA v2 is found in "vBulletin Options > Human Verification Manager", not in "vBulletin Options > vBulletin Options > Human Verification Options"

[crazymook]

Im looking in the right place, v2 is not there.

[BirdOPrey5]

Just to be clear the screenshot posted in Post 36 is not the right place to look for it, so that is why it is confusing.

If it isn't showing up in the actual right place most likely the files were uploaded to the wrong directory.

File uploaded to includes folder. XML file installed. Looking in the right spot. No update to the verification options
