ReCaptcha enabled JCal Pro

JCal Pro is a fantastic extension to manage events on Joomla enabled Sites. Last week I used JCal Pro for a project and required some modification. JCal Pro is a great extension but lacks spam protection like CAPTCHA or any thing that stops spam posting. But I needed spam prevention in event posting, So I set out to add a CAPTCHA to the fantastic component.
I used reCpatcha as it is audio enabled, a free service and is also owned by google now. ReCaptcha has enabled more than 100,000 sites and I added one more to the list.
The component now has a reCaptcha for spam filtering and JCal Pro has a missing gem installed on it.
You can view a of modified JCal Pro here
I wanted to distribute this modified extension for free but cannot distribute it as it is developed and distributed by dev.anything-digital.com and the extension is subscription based.
However you can contact me for modified version of JCal Pro or if you want to add reCaptcha to your existing JCal Pro or any other extension. Yes I charge a little for my time.
Happy Reading.
