Add captcha to our website contact form was created by LisaRaymondAZ
Is there a way to add captcha code to our website's contact form for added security? If yes, how and where, or would this have to be added by the programming team? Thank you.

Will do, Steve, thank you. I'll let D3 know the Support team is on it - quite a few of our clubs have been asking about this.

I would caution you about making any claims that reCAPTCHA will prevent all contact form based spam. It can help with *automated* (bots) based spam attacks. I am not yet sure whether form fillers (a semi automated approach) used to fill out the contact form would be detected or prevented. Additionally, many clubs use the publicly accessible contact- email address (frequently used to contact them from their find a club page) which works in parallel with the contact us form, but does not use the form.
I would emphasize the following to clubs based on what we are seeing these days:
1. Clubs should enable the "Crowd-Sourced Blacklist" feature.
2. Clubs should enable the "Is this SPAM?" links feature.
3. Clubs should be very wary about what email addresses they make visible and accessible to the general public. The more they make public, the more they need to get familiar with our additional Email Security features.
