Was this information Helpful?

Hi,

I am about to launch my first Ubercart powered store and was wondering if any of you had order form spam (where no cc is used but COD for example)?

I guess the best for it would be recaptcha, but was just curious if I should start with it or not.

Cheers,
G

Re: anyone had order form spam?

Why not use Mollom instead?

I don't know if it specifically protects ubercart order forms. But, considering that Acquia (commercial drupal version) uses Ubercart, it just might.

I'm not sure I'd add a CAPTCHA to the checkout form... wouldn't help with conversions. Eye-wink

I don't think you really need to worry about it since the checkout form depends on some AJAX and it's multi-step for now. If it becomes an issue, I guess it would be better to just require registration prior to checkout instead of adding a CAPTCHA to the checkout form.

Re: Re: anyone had order form spam?

I agree with not using CAPTCHA. Which is why Mollom may be handy as it doesn't show a captcha unless it gets suspicious about the user input.

But, as I said, I don't know if Mollom protects an ubercart order form.

P.S: Am I correct that Acquia is using Ubercart?

Mollom won't protect the Ubercart checkout form; and yeah, they're using Ubercart for selling their services. Way cool. Cool
