Adding reCaptcha to registration form

Development
1

Is it possible to add reCaptcha to the registration form to prevent spam account signups? I know how to add custom fields and make other basic modifications to the registration form via the official docs, but reCaptcha implementation is more in-depth as it requires back-end validation via Google’s servers before the form submission fully executes.

@kory, it is possible to add fields to the registration form by following the instructions here.

With that and something like the django-recaptcha library, you can add a custom form field which includes the recaptcha. Can you try this and let us know if it worked?

Thanks for the suggestion, @guruprasad. I will report back when I get the chance to implement this approach.
