CAPTCHA for Password-Protected Pages/Posts

Section titled CAPTCHA for Password-Protected Pages/Posts

In this release, we’ve introduced a new feature that enhances security for your WordPress site: CAPTCHA for pages and posts.

With our new CAPTCHA integration, you can add an additional layer of security to pages and posts that are already password-protected. While CAPTCHA was already available for login and registration pages, this new release allows you to add CAPTCHA to pages and posts as well. Users will need to solve a CAPTCHA challenge before gaining access, ensuring that only genuine human visitors can view the content.

In addition to the CAPTCHA feature, we’ve made several other enhancements and fixes. We’ve resolved an issue where the CAPTCHA wasn’t displaying correctly on the BuddyPress registration page.

Previously, if you’d renamed the login page and enabled the login whitelist features in WooCommerce, you may have encountered a logout issue. Rest assured, we’ve fixed it.

For the full list of changes, please review the changelog below.

  • Feature: Added CAPTCHA to password protected pages/posts
  • Fix: Captcha not showing on the BuddyPress registration page
  • Fix: WooCommerce logout issue when the renamed login page and login whitelist features are both enabled
