Recaptcha on login

-- HikaShop version -- : 4.6.0
-- Joomla version -- : 4.1.0
-- PHP version -- : 8.2
-- Browser(s) name and version -- : Chrome (latest)

Hello,

i installed ReCaptcha plugin for Hikashop and it is working fine on registration; is there any way to add it to login, too?

It would be very useful to prevent brute force attempts.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

There is no option at the moment to add the Recaptcha of our plugin on the login.

However, while researching to answer you, I stumble on this forum thread:

I think there are great answers there.
And I do agree that adding captcha to the login won't add any security (if a bot can register through the registration's captcha, it will be able to login through the login's captcha). Pluse, it's a big hassle for your users to have to validate a captcha each time they login (yes, it can be invisible for 90% of the users, but for others, they will have to fill a captcha each time).
To stop brute force attacks on your login, I think this is more adapted:
