Advanced honeypot fields
Would it be possible to add a type of field that is called "honeypot" where only a certain input is accepted for the registration? This allows for more advanced honeypots. While the current honeypot is simple, it always has the same HTML attributes and name. If I could just have the user type a simple word that is always the same in a field down below for the registration to be accepted it would be great.
@Fliwatt Thanks for the suggestions. Do you have any examples to show?
Thank you for your answer. One example would be a text input with the description:
"Please enter "Human" in the field down below to prove that you are human.
If the user enters "Human", they can register. So basically it would just need a checkbox in the text field to only allow registration when a given string is entered. Since the text as well as the HTML name should be customizable it is much harder for a bot to automate against if not specifically targeting your website. Also this method is much better for blind users.
To add to this:
I am aware of the current honeypot feature, I guess what I think I am asking for is an option to customize them. Especially change the HTML name since it is hardcoded but also the ability change it to a text field with a specific required input.
