External service
This plugin relies on Yandex SmartCaptcha, a third-party service operated through Yandex Cloud. The SmartCaptcha JavaScript is loaded from https://smartcaptcha.cloud.yandex.ru/captcha.js on pages where a protected CAPTCHA widget is rendered. When a protected form is submitted, the CAPTCHA token and, when available, the visitor IP address are sent server-side to https://smartcaptcha.cloud.yandex.ru/validate together with the site owner’s private server key to verify the request.
A Yandex Cloud account and a configured SmartCaptcha are required. Review the service documentation and applicable legal terms before enabling the plugin:
* Service documentation: https://yandex.cloud/en/docs/smartcaptcha/
* Yandex Cloud Terms of Use: https://yandex.com/legal/cloud_terms_smartcaptcha/
* Yandex Privacy Policy: https://yandex.com/legal/confidential/
Установка
- Upload the plugin ZIP in Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin, or install it from WordPress.org when available.
- Activate the plugin.
- Create a SmartCaptcha in Yandex Cloud: https://yandex.cloud/en/services/smartcaptcha
- Copy its Client key and Server key. Key instructions: https://yandex.cloud/en/docs/smartcaptcha/operations/get-keys
- Open Settings > 2IZI SmartCaptcha.
- Save both keys and enable the forms you want to protect. WooCommerce checkout protection currently targets the classic checkout flow; test it before production use.
- Test login and other protected flows in a separate browser/private window before logging out of the administrator session.
Часто задаваемые вопросы
-
Is this an official Yandex plugin?
-
No. This is an independent plugin by 2IZI that integrates with the Yandex SmartCaptcha service.
-
Does the server key appear in page HTML?
-
No. The server key is used only in server-side verification requests. The client key is public and is included in the widget markup as required by SmartCaptcha.
-
What happens if Yandex SmartCaptcha cannot be reached?
-
By default, protected submissions are blocked (fail closed). Administrators can change this behavior in settings, but fail-closed mode is recommended for security-sensitive forms.
