Event Booking doesn't work with CB AntiSpam?

We took our first EB event live and discovered that it doesn't seem to recognize Community Builder's AntiSpam Captcha.  Our Joomla default is set to AntiSpam site-wide and it works fine on all other forms, but the EB registration forms return the Captcha invalid error.

The Invite friends forms does function properly with CB AntiSpam.

Will the EB registration forms not work with CB AntiSpam? Or is there another setting I missed?

Thanks.

Hello

I haven't worked with CB Antispam, so I don't really know. Is it a kind of captcha plugin for Joomla? If so, at least it should work for individual registration

For group registration, maybe some code will be needed due to the way group registration is processed in Events Booking (something related to javacript/ajax)

Hello Tuan,

It is a CB plugin and I'm not sure exactly how CB AntiSpam functions, but it still uses Google ReCaptcha.  We have used it for years to protect Joomla contact forms, Virtuemart, BreezingForms, and all other submission events on the site. 

It has the ability to use its own internal captcha (we're not using this), but also Google v2, v3, and invisible ReCaptcha, probably as a pass-through monitor.  This is the documentation link for AntiSpam: CB AntiSpam Docs

This is the error thrown for both individual and group registrations: Error Invalid verification code entered

CB AntiSpam is valuable because it allows us to track and block hacking and brute-force attacks.

Thank you,

Ed

Hello

As mentioned, I haven't used CB AntiSpam before, so maybe EB is not compatible with that plugin, I could not be sure. We only tested Events Booking with the Joomla core re-captcha plugins only

If you can send me a copy of the plugin, we can try to look at it to see if it is possible to make Events Booking compatible with the plugin
