I am using the UserPage Module and was wondering how to get the Spam protection to work? Do I put this into the UserPage _config.php?

RecaptchaField::$public_api_key = 'XXXXXX';
RecaptchaField::$private_api_key = 'XXXXXX';
SpamProtectorManager::set_spam_protector("RecaptchaProtector");

Thanks for any assistance.

No you put that in your own mysite _config file. You should never edit a module (if you can avoid it).

Once you have added that then in the CMS form builder you should see a 'Spam Protector Field' option you can add to the form.

I think you are referring to User Form Module. User Page is the module for user login information and registration.

Ah sorry, I'm so used to people referring to UserForms in so many different ways.. Looking at the code (http://sunny.svnrepository.com/svn/sunny-side-up-general/userpage/code/RegisterAndEditDetailsPage.php) I can't see any hooks for it. You could either directly edit the module or send me email to the module author asking for spam protection support.

I have added documentation on how module authors can adapt their forms to include the required hooks on http://doc.silverstripe.org/doku.php?id=modules:spamprotection#making_your_module_spam_protection_enabled
