When creating a form for your web sites, you need some method to prevent the spam-bots from auto populating your forms and then submitting the miscellaneous data over an over again filling your email or database with random spam or useless data. Google\u2019s ReCaptcha enables you to require that the user input the characters \/ numbers displayed on the image into the form submission, before the form will be accepted.

Content Restriction by webconstruction.ch. When you create user defined pages and wish to setup these pages so that only the user who logs in can see a specific page, this is when Content Restriction comes in handy.

When setting up access groups you can then specify which groups are allowed access to the data by specifying {access group name} content {\/access} this is most effective when creating a page with content for each user group and then specifying the documents that the user can see, when the user access this page only the documents that the user has access to will be displayed where as there may be several different users defined with the documents linked on that specific Category:Home \u203a Other \u2022 Pomegranates: A newly discovered superfood \u2022 Where did the joke why did the chicken cross the road come from and why is it funny? \u2022 Can mothers diagnosed with bipolar disorder make good parents? \u2022 Spiritual evolution of human consciousness \u2022 Tips for getting a college basketball scholarship \u2022 Living with Pseudotumor cerebri (PTC) \u2022 Caring for the caregiver \u2022 Technologys impact on society<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When looking at the top rated extensions for your Joomla website you need to identify the objective you are hoping to achieve.
