ReCAPTCHA Free is a drop-in replacement for OpenCart's built-in captcha system found in the “Contact Us” form. Using Google's free ReCAPTCHA service, it allows spam bots to be more effectively filtered out while helping to digitize thousands of old newspapers and books (http://google.com/recaptcha/learnmore). Additionally, its built-in audio challenge adds access to the contact form for the visually impaired.

Requirements

OpenCart 1.5.1.x and later
VQMod 2.1.7 or later (http://vqmod.com)
Google ReCAPTCHA public and private key set (http://google.com/recaptcha/whyrecaptcha)
ReCAPTCHA PHP Library 1.11 (included with download)

Hi Marcel. Are there any issues listed in your VQMod error log?

Hi, Ryan. thx for your quick reply. Finally I found that your vqmod can not work with uksitebuilder's vqmod "better contact form"
here is the link: viewtopic.php?f=131&t=35286

I can only enable your mod or his mod. they cannot work together.
Your mod is really perfect for stop those stupid spammers and his mod is also a cool one. Can you please make your mod work together with his? thx

PS: although two mods conflicts, there is no VQMod error log.

Unfortunately that mod is doing a full file replace which makes it fundamentally incompatible with ReCAPTCHA Free or any other VQMod that tries to make changes to the contact form controller. The only thing you can do is ask uksitebuilder if he's willing to rewrite it.

yeah he probably will. I ran into this with one of his other mods. When he first started writing mods he just used the all option in vqmod for everything, and since all his mods start with U then they always run last and wipe out everything else. I really complained when Q put in that stupid flag, but so far the only one I've seen using it is uksitebuilder, and he seems willing to update his mods to work properly.
