Random honeypot field name within a scope about invisible_captcha HOT 3 CLOSED

Hi @dennis95stumm and thanks for trying invisible_captcha.

I'm not sure if I get 100% your proposal :), but if you want to use the scope for the honeypot attribute you can already use the following:

# view
<%= form_for(Topic.new) do |f| %>
  <%= f.invisible_captcha :subtitle %>
<% end %>

# controller
invisible_captcha only: [:create, :update], honeypot: 'subtitle'

You can see more controller and helper options here:

from invisible_captcha.

Hi @markets, thanks for the answer. But this isn't that what i want. I want to use the invisible captcha with a generated field name in a scope. The idea is that a the invisible captcha gets on every request a random field name and because all other fields are scoped it would be reasonable that the invisible captcha gets also scoped (like topic[randomName].
Finally i want to use it like this:

# view
<%= form_for(Topic.new) do |f| %>
  <%= f.invisible_captcha %>
<% end %>

or in my case i must specify it as follows:

# view
<%= form_for(Topic.new) do |f| %>
  <%= f.invisible_captcha nil %> 
<% end %>

since without a custom field name the scoping doesn't work for the invisible_captcha helper.

# controller
invisible_captcha only: [:create, :update], scope: 'topic'

from invisible_captcha.

ok, got it, you'd like to use the default random honeypots, with the scope option too. Yes, this is a feature request 😺

NOTE In the meantime, you can use the helper, instead of the form helper to avoid passing the nil value and use the random generated ones:

<%= form_for(Topic.new) do |f| %>
  <%= invisible_captcha %> 
<% end %>

from invisible_captcha.
