Hello,

We're exploring the JS challenge feature and had a few questions: 
  • What does the challenge actually look like? Is it like the Cloudflare ones that run automatically in the background and just take a few seconds, or does the user need to click or do anything?
  • Is there a demo site where we can try it out and see how it works?
  • For the GeoIP setup: do we need to update the .mmdb files at least every 30 days, since the MaxMind EULA requires keeping the data up to date? How do others handle that?
Thanks,
Cindy

Hi all -

Following up on this question ... I have v2.9.2 running and I *think* the Javascript challenge is activated correctly (I added an `appChallenge.yml` file, and I believe I updated composer and the BS5 theme) but I'm not seeing any evidence of that. I don't see a challenge when accessing the site or a collection or an item and the cookies referred to in the `appChallenge.yml` are not set. Can anyone explain the exact step-by-step process they used to successfully activate the Javascript challenge?

Thanks!

Regards,
Paul
