Hi Support-Team,
For the last two days I have been getting spam messages via my contact form - does this have something to do with the latest updates, as the captcha has probably been modified?

Hi there,
Thank you for reaching out, and I apologize for any inconvenience caused by this oversight. Please use invisiable re-captcha or hcaptcha. Then check again & let us know.
Best regards,
Toufiqur Rahman (Team Lead, Support)
Hello Toufiq,
THANK YOU for the quick feedback!!! :) I have deactivated Invinsible Captcha, as this often results in error messages. But it is now active again and I'll let you know in a few days if any more spam comes in.
best regards
Sure! Please keep me updated. Thanks
Hello Toufiq,
I just went to wait a few days before giving feedback.
Invinsible is activated and the spam is done. Thanks for your advice! :)
best regards
Still now spamming in your mail? Please confirm me.
No spam :)
Glad to know that your issue has been solved. Thanks
Hi Toufiq,
I need to open the post again.
The spam is gone, but the contact form no longer works. I get neither a confirmation that a request has been sent nor an email.
Maybe you could test it or look over it.
Now it's getting exciting:
octi-schwimmschule.at - failed - SPPB 5.4.0
octi-design.at - failed - SPPB 5.4.0
dein-sitzball.com - failed - SPPB 5.4.0
allura.octi-design.de - received, but no confirmation in the contact form - SPPB 5.3.8
Joomla test email works on your site? If works, then provide me the Joomla administrator access. Thanks
There is obviously a problem there too.
I'll downgrade the PHP version.
You need to communicate with your hosting server provider to enable the PHP mail function. Thanks
Provider is informed. :)
Thanks
Just for information: for whatever reason, my provider had deactivated the mail function.
Hi Toufiq,
For your information: I have changed my provider. On one of my pages I still used the integrated captcha from the SPPB. This night alone I received 110 spam requests. I have now activated Invinsible Captcha on this site as well.
Let me know the update.
Hello Toufiq,
after a few days the spam will stop again.
The internal captcha of the SPPB has been replaced by Invinsible reCaptcha.
Your own captcha has lost its function ;)
