soxofaan commentedThis is a feature actually: once a CAPTCHA is solved correctly for a form instance (aka form session), it is omitted for the rest of the lifetime of that form. This was implemented for workflows with previews or multi-page forms, where one typically wants that the CAPTCHA is removed once the user successfully answered to it.
The admin option "Always add a challenge." is maybe a bit misleading here, and should better be something like "Add a challenge to each form instance, until correctly solved for that instance."
Maybe this could be turned into a feature request to support a real "Always add a challenge" feature. However, I'm not sure if that's a very good idea: it will mainly hurt human visitors, but barely harm spambots, because they probably don't retry posting a form with a validation error and just rerequest a new fresh form instance.

Turkish Delight commentedBumping because I believe that this should be changed to constantly add a challenge for that form if the actual form hasn't been answered correctly. This could apply to a user-login form, a password request form or a contact form.

soxofaan commentedhere is a first patch that implements this feature:
"always add a challenge" now really means what it suggests: a challenge will always be added, even on multipage/preview workflows.
Added the option "Add a challenge to every fresh form, but for multipage workflows only one challenge is required.", which is the old interpretation of "always add a challenge".
I'm not really happy with the wording yet. I'm afraid the four persistence options we have now take too much text and still are too hard too understand. I warmly welcome any suggestion or ideas from you guys and gals.
any other feedback is welcome too.

petiar commentedHi there,
need to open this as I am having trubles on guestbook page - with "Always add a challenge." The CAPTCHA keeps disappearing every day and my customer is getting tons of spam. Can you please help me with this? Wich cache turned off it disappeared after couple of hours, cache enabled keeps the CAPTCHA working at least one day. My customer thinks I am not even able to set up a stupid guestbook.
Thanks a lot.
