Makuruwan Arithmetic Human Quiz adds a lightweight arithmetic human-verification challenge to WordPress login, standard WordPress comments, WooCommerce product reviews, and custom forms. It helps keep bots out without relying on Google reCAPTCHA or external services.<\/p>\n\n

Comment and product-review protection is enforced server-side on the normal WordPress comment submission endpoint, so simply removing the visible quiz field does not bypass the check.<\/p>\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Upload the plugin to \/wp-content\/plugins\/makuruwan-arithmetic-human-quiz\/<\/code> and activate it.<\/li>\n
  2. Go to Settings \u2192 Human Quiz<\/strong> to configure the quiz.<\/li>\n
  3. Enable or disable protection separately for login, blog\/post comments, and WooCommerce product reviews.<\/li>\n
  4. To protect custom forms, add the shortcode [makarhq_human_check]<\/code> inside your <form><\/code> markup.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n
    \n

    Can I protect only the login form?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Yes. You can enable or disable login protection in the plugin settings.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    What shortcode should I use in custom forms?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Use [makarhq_human_check]<\/code> inside your <form><\/code> tag so the fields are submitted with the form.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Does it protect WordPress comments?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Yes. Version 1.1.0 can require the arithmetic challenge before a visitor submits a normal WordPress comment.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Does it protect WooCommerce product reviews?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Yes. Product review forms can be protected independently from normal blog\/post comments.<\/p><\/dd>\n

    Are logged-in users also asked to solve the quiz on comments and reviews?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

    Yes. When comment or product-review protection is enabled, the challenge is rendered for both logged-in and logged-out users using the standard WordPress comment form hooks.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n
