How it works

• When a person wants to create a new account on your website, an extra button and text field are displayed on the account creation form (click the image on the right to enlarge the screenshot).
• Users need to click on Send Code after entering their email address. The user will receive an email containing a random validation code.
• Users need to enter that validation code in the text field, and then click the Register button.
• It works with the core Joomla registration procedure.

Advantages

• It reduces ’bot-generated account registrations to zero. Users must enter a valid email address and, if the user is not human, the account cannot be created until a valid code is entered.
• Users are less likely to make mistakes entering their email address during account registration.
• Helps keep your user tables clean.

Language

English (en-GB) but it is not difficult to translate the output into any other language
