Conditional CAPTCHA v1.9
Developed By: Samir Shah
Akismet is great at detecting spam, but if you get lots of it then it means trawling through the spam queue in case there are any false positives.
This plugin provides a user-friendly CAPTCHA complement to Akismet. If Akismet identifies a comment as spam, it will ask the commenter to complete a simple CAPTCHA. If they fail, then the comment will be automatically discarded or trashed (and won’t clutter up your spam queue). If they pass, it will be allowed into the spam queue. That way the spam queue will contain only the most likely false positives, making it much easier to identify them.
Meanwhile, genuine commenters (i.e., those not flagged by Akismet) will be able to comment on your blog hassle-free, and without CAPTCHAs.
The plugin lets you choose between the default CAPTCHA (a simple text-based test) and reCAPTCHA (this requires getting a free API key). You can style the CAPTCHA page to fit with your theme using CSS.
This plugin requires Akismet to be active in order to work.
