*** Options: https://wiki.eprints.org/w/Eprints-tech_Mailing_ListHi Will,
EPrints support Google's ReCAPTCHA both versions 2 (challenge based) and version 3 (score based). Version 2 is already supported by the Recaptcha metadata field in EPrints 3.4.x:
https://wiki.eprints.org/w/Recaptcha_field
Version 3 will be supported in the next release of EPrints (3.4.6):
https://wiki.eprints.org/w/Recaptcha3_field
However, if you just download [1] and add the file for the metadata field to the appropriate directory, (e.g. perl_lib/EPrints/MetaField/, you might need to add a "use EPrints::MetaField::Recaptcha3;" somewhere), you should be able to use it only earlier versions. Either way you will need a Google account to request a site and secret key [2]
Regards
David Newman

I'm fairly new to EPrints and I was just looking for some suggestions please about possible ways of dealing with a situation which arose here last week. We discovered that a bot or other entity was repeatedly requesting an accessible copy of one of our articles. Does anyone have any advice for securing the request form to curtail this kind of behaviour? Thanks.
Will
