## Kuvaus

**ZigZag Image Captcha for Contact Form 7** adds a powerful, image-based captcha
field designed to protect your forms from spam and bots.

The plugin generates a **zig-zag distorted captcha image** with background noise,

bots to solve.

It integrates seamlessly with **Contact Form 7**, works fully with **AJAX submissions**,
and displays **native CF7 validation errors**.
