Hi I want guests to post on my site but the problem is that it can be easy for spam. How do I make it so before a guest posts they have to answer a simple security question (Such as 2+2 NOT capicha) Thanks

can i do this without a plugin? isn't it just a setting in acp? thanks Smile
With settings you can only enable the captcha.

I could give capitcha a try. How do I enable that in ACP? (btw I LOVE your mywhiteboard plugin. Keep up the great work! Smile)
It is already enabled if guest is replying. You can change the type of the captcha in ACP -> Configuration -> General Configuration -> CAPTCHA Images for Registration & Posting
