gnome-terminal, terminator, or xterm.The first step is to install the dependencies required to run IconCaptcha.
Run the following command in your terminal emulator to install the dependencies:
sudo pacman -S php php-gd
The next step is to download the IconCaptcha files. You can download the latest version of IconCaptcha from https://www.fabianwennink.nl/projects/IconCaptcha/.
Alternatively, you can run the following command in your terminal emulator to download the latest version:
curl -L -o iconcaptcha.zip https://github.com/FabianWeb/IconCaptcha/releases/latest/download/iconcaptcha.zip
Once you have downloaded the IconCaptcha files, extract them to your web root directory. The web root directory is usually located at /srv/http.
To extract the files, run the following command in your terminal emulator:
sudo unzip iconcaptcha.zip -d /srv/http/
The next step is to edit the configuration file to configure IconCaptcha to your preferences.
Open the config.php file located in the root directory of your website:
sudo nano /srv/http/iconcaptcha/config.php
The config.php file contains several parameters that you can configure, such as the number of icons, difficulty, and timeout values. Once you have made your changes, save the file and exit the text editor.
To test IconCaptcha, open your web browser and navigate to the IconCaptcha URL. The URL should be http://localhost/iconcaptcha if you have installed it on your local machine. Replace localhost with your server's IP address or domain name if you have installed it on a remote server.
