A new update for XF Bot Guard 1.3.0 is now available for free download. Big thanks to the contribution from our member @axtona !

change log

  • Introduces a new option, Preserve inactive XenForo CAPTCHA keys. When enabled, which is off by default, this adjusts the standard XenForo CAPTCHA options area so inactive CAPTCHA configurations are preserved instead of being removed...
