Image Verification

Warning

Starting with version 4.5.1, this section of settings no longer exists. Please use the Google reCaptcha add-on for anti-bot protection.

Image verification is used to ensure that forms in your store are completed by humans, not automated systems. This allows you to avoid lots of spam and fake user accounts. You can adjust parameters of verification images as well as specify when image verification is required.
