Title: Custom Captcha Field for Fluent Forms Author: Lukman Hussain Nakib Published: اگست 13, 2024 Last modified: جُلائی 9, 2026 --- Search plugins ![](https://ps.w.org/custom-captcha-field-for-fluent-forms/assets/banner-772x250. png?rev=3601920) ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/custom-captcha-field-for-fluent-forms_b2b0ac. svg) # Custom Captcha Field for Fluent Forms By [Lukman Hussain Nakib](https://profiles.wordpress.org/pyrobd/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/custom-captcha-field-for-fluent-forms.2.0.0.zip) * [Details](https://bcc.wordpress.org/plugins/custom-captcha-field-for-fluent-forms/#description) * [Reviews](https://bcc.wordpress.org/plugins/custom-captcha-field-for-fluent-forms/#reviews) * [Installation](https://bcc.wordpress.org/plugins/custom-captcha-field-for-fluent-forms/#installation) * [Development](https://bcc.wordpress.org/plugins/custom-captcha-field-for-fluent-forms/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/custom-captcha-field-for-fluent-forms/) ## Description Adds a “Custom Captcha” field to the Fluent Forms editor with three challenge types: * **Image captcha** — a 6-character code rendered as an image, with customizable text color and a transparent background by default so it blends with any form design * **Math captcha** — a simple arithmetic question rendered as an image * **Question and answer** — you define the question (field label) and the expected answer Challenges are single-use and expire after 15 minutes. Answers are stored server- side via WordPress transients — nothing is exposed to the browser except the image itself. Visitors get a refresh button to request a new challenge, and the captcha automatically renews after each AJAX submission, so it also works on cached pages. On top of the captcha you get two extra spam defenses: * **Time-trap** (optional, off by default) — submissions completed faster than a human possibly could are rejected via an HMAC-signed timestamp; enable it and set the minimum submit time per field * **Disposable email blocking** (optional, on by default) — rejects submissions where an email field uses a temporary/disposable email domain like mailinator. com or yopmail.com; extend the list with the `ffc_captcha_blocked_email_domains` filter Everything runs on your own server: no external captcha service, no API keys, no cookies, no visitor data sent anywhere. ### Requirements [Fluent Forms](https://wordpress.org/plugins/fluentform) is required. The PHP GD extension is recommended for image rendering (with a plain-text fallback when unavailable). ### How To Use 1. Activate the plugin 2.

Transparent PNGs for the codes may work better.
