Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Raptcha

Raptcha shows users an image with multiple animals and asks them to count a specific type (cats, dogs, or birds). Users drag and drop the correct number to verify they're human. This challenge is simple for humans but difficult for bots, and includes behavioral detection to catch automated solvers.

WordPress Core (Automatic): Login forms and comment forms - just enable in settings. Contact Form 7 (Per-Form Control): Add [raptcha] tag to any form you want to protect. WPForms (All Forms - Automatic):

Kadence Forms (Per-Form Control): Add paragraph block with [raptcha integration="kadence"] shortcode to specific forms. Dual-layer validation (client + server) for maximum security. Fluent Forms (Per-Form Control): Add HTML field with [raptcha integration="fluentforms"] to specific forms. Works in both Gutenberg block and [fluentform id="X"] shortcode embedding modes. Ninja Forms (All Forms - Automatic): CAPTCHA automatically appears on all Ninja Forms when enabled. No manual field addition needed. Forminator (All Forms - Automatic): CAPTCHA automatically appears on all Forminator forms when enabled. Works with both Forminator Free and Pro. No manual field addition needed. Formidable Forms (Per-Form Control): Add HTML field with [raptcha integration="formidable"] to specific forms. Advanced Forms for ACF (All Forms - Automatic): CAPTCHA automatically appears on all Advanced Forms when enabled. Requires ACF Pro. No manual field addition needed.

Use the [raptcha] shortcode anywhere in your form. The CAPTCHA will generate dynamically when the page loads. Your form must submit via POST and include the hidden raptcha_validation_token field for validation. For custom validation, use the Raptcha_Challenge_Manager::verify_validation_token() method in your form processing code.

Yes! Raptcha uses clear visual elements with proper ARIA labels and keyboard navigation support. Counting animals is more intuitive than distorted text, making it easier for users with cognitive or visual differences. The drag-and-drop interface works with both mouse and keyboard.

No. Raptcha is self-hosted with no external dependencies or tracking. Images are generated on-demand and cached temporarily. There are no third-party API calls that could slow down your forms or compromise user privacy.

Yes. The link is optional and can be disabled at any time in the Raptcha settings. Raptcha is free, private, and operates without third-party services. Leaving the link visible helps support ongoing development and allows others to discover a privacy-focused alternative to paid CAPTCHA solutions.

Raptcha is a play on CAPTCHA and rapture. Bots arrive, face a brief evaluation, and are peacefully ascended to bot heaven before they can make their move.
