I was made aware of this plug-in https://github.com/discourse/discourse-hCaptcha but don’t find anything about it here, does anyone have any info on it, using it, examples or reports? Thank you

I can’t find any info on it, but I tested it locally, and everything seems to work fine. ▶ I followed the README to get the API key (it takes a few seconds). Here is some image: <a class="lightbox" href="https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/4/f/c/4fc37f3a0e08ba6485b52ad20235522414f910ca.png" data-download-href="/uploads/short-url/bnCzn371NEHSDfhPlwmEoSP4Onw.png?dl=1" title="The image shows a user registration form on a website, with fields for name and password, a checked password strength indicator, an unchecked CAPTCHA box for human verification, and a prompt to complete the hCaptcha challenge, with options to either create an account or log in.

I have the latest Discourse version, and I can’t reproduce it in my local (dev) instance. :thinking: I will see to test a production forum in a few minutes. It works well on a production installation. Does it happen every time you register?

Yes, it happens every time. I opened up dev tools, and the error is: {"errors":["You need to be logged in to do that."],"error_type":"not_logged_in"} when performing a POST to /hcaptcha/create.json Here is a screenshot: [Screenshot_20240520_223147] And I am sure the email is not registered and…

I can reproduce it on your site. I can see the request pass through Cloudflare, so I can only assume it does something it should not, like caching the page and passing a different forum session. I don’t know Cloudflare; see in the dashboard if you can disable any optimization for this request.
