Anti-Spam Options - PlayThru

Description

Are You A Human is a free CAPTCHA alternative that uses simple games to replace annoying CAPTCHAs. Our tool, called PlayThru, stops bots with fun by focusing on being simple and intuitive. We then use a proprietary algorithm to determine if the interaction with our game is from a human. Play samples of our games here.

PlayThru has been featured by MSNBC, Engadget, MakeUseOf, ReadWriteWeb, and others.


Technology

PlayThru supports both html5 and flash, and also works on mobile devices. Visit our forum for more technical details.

PlayThru also supports two different methods of display. Embedded mode displays the PlayThru in-line in the form. Lightbox mode only displays the PlayThru after the submit button is clicked. More information on these options can be found in our blog post.

Great mod thanks for sharing, however I'm seeing lots of the errors in my logs such as:

AYAH: ayah_config.php missing; will require setting of specific values.

Can anything be done about them?

Installed...

Is it true this can circumvented by just disabling javascript?

Same here. Apparently it isn't important enough to be looked into by them. I will be uninstalling this since the support leaves a lot to be desired.

I removed it after a few days and went back to my old setup

Yep, it looks like another one of those "use it as is or don't" type mods.

Sorry for the slow support! We will be more active with monitoring this feedback from now on.

The logging error described by hugh_ has been fixed - the mod is now updated. Also, disabling javascript does not circumvent the PlayThru. It will prevent it from loading, causing the user to fail authentication.

Thanks for the update and answering my question.

I've already installed the previous version of this (THANKS - no more spambots!!!). I don't see instructions on how to update; do I need to do the full installation instructions? And is there any harm is not updating, if I don't care about my log file?

[Are You A Human]

tcarr9, you can update by simply replacing the file "packages\ayah\ayah.php" in your installation with the file "upload\packages\ayah\ayah.php" from the download. However, the only difference is that unnecessary messages aren't written to the log file. So if you don't care about your log file, there's no need to update.
