Ecommerce shopping cart security for guests

Dcode warner asked on August 30, 2017 19:16

Is there no settings to prevent spam bots from ordering products as a guest? I found a captcha setting for 'Register' form. But 'continue as guest' has no spam protection.

You could create a custom alternative form for the billing address information which has the captcha control on it. It would require you modify the address class and add that field but it would be a solid solution.

@BrendenKehren What about older version of kentico like 7, where the classes and alternative forms aren’t available. Any alternatives?

You have access to make those changes in v7 as well, just have to mark that class to show as a "system table" in the cms_class table. Then when you go to Site Manager>Development>System Tables, you'll see that table available and you can then add the field to the table from there with the proper control. It may also require some custom work on the checkout process since it is v7 but I can't say what that is as I only have 1 client on v7 now and they don't have ecommerce all the rest have upgraded to newer versions.
