Configuring Advanced Settings

You can configure Advanced Settings and choose the Captcha displayed in the end user interface.

The Captcha is used to check if the user is human on:

  • the register page
  • the Login page (after several failed attempts)
  • the Forgot my password page

You can keep the Legacy Captcha, which remains the default behavior and which asks users to write the characters displayed on the screen, or choose the Google reCAPTCHA, which asks the users if they are not robots through a check box and, depending on the environment (cookies, browser, operating system, screen resolution…), may challenge them to select images according to various criteria.

  1. In the Configuration menu, click on the Advanced tab.

    The Name of the HTTP header containing the client's IP in the Advanced settings is provided by the proxy that will carry the source IP of the client. This is set to x-fowarded-for by default. This setting is optional, and is used to display the client IP in the logs.

    The Captcha Type is set to Legacy Captcha by default

    The Captcha for the register page is disabled by default.

  2. Optional: If you want to apply the Captcha to the Register Form, select the Enable the Captcha on register page check box.
  3. Optional: Configure the Captcha with Google reCAPTCHA.
    1. In the Captcha configuration, select Google reCAPTCHA as Captcha Type.
    2. Go to Google reCAPTCHA website and customize your Captcha using your google account.

      Note:
      • When you create your Captcha, you must select the reCAPTCHA v2 Checkbox.
      • For more information, see Google reCAPTCHA developpers guide.

    3. After you fill in the fields, accept the terms and register.

      Google generates a Site Key and a Secret Key.

    4. Copy the generated Site Key and Secret Key and paste them into the Client ID and Secret ID fields.
  4. Click on Apply to save your changes.
