IconCaptcha is a tool that prevents spam and automated posting on websites by asking users to identify icons in a puzzle. Here's how to install it on OpenSUSE Latest.
Go to https://www.fabianwennink.nl/projects/IconCaptcha/ and download the latest version. Save the file to a folder on your computer.
IconCaptcha requires Apache and PHP to be installed on your server. If they are not already installed, run the following command:
sudo zypper install apache2 php7
This will install Apache and PHP.
IconCaptcha also requires the GD library for PHP. To install it, run the following command:
sudo zypper install php7-gd
Copy the contents of the downloaded IconCaptcha folder to the web directory on your server. This is usually located at /srv/www/htdocs.
Set permissions on the files in the IconCaptcha folder to allow the web server to access them:
sudo chown -R wwwrun:www /srv/www/htdocs/IconCaptcha
sudo chmod -R 755 /srv/www/htdocs/IconCaptcha
Open a web browser and go to the URL of your server followed by /IconCaptcha. You should now see the IconCaptcha puzzle.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed IconCaptcha on OpenSUSE Latest. You can now use it to prevent spam and automated posting on your website.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
