Thanks for reaching out @xstrych9x. Unfortunately, I wasn’t able to see the article you’re referring to, but in order to add a CAPTCHA you’ll need to add it via opp-single-form.php by copying that file into a folder called wivm in your current theme, then modifying it. Along with that you’ll need to write some additional code using the existing hooks in the plugin to ensure the form only submits when the CAPTCHA is done correctly. If you’re not comfortable with the coding needed to make this happen, let me know and I can provide you all a bid for the customization if you’d like.
It’s also worth noting that instead of a CAPTCHA we almost always recommend what’s called a honeypot. Basically, it’s a form field that’s hidden from users, but bots see it. When bots see it, they fill it out, signaling to the website that the submission is spam instead of a legitimate person. We like honeypots better because they don’t hinder the experience for legitimate users.
I hope this is helpful. Let me know what other questions you have.

Sorry it took me a few days to get back to you @xstrych9x. I was traveling during the day yesterday. Feel free to reach out to me directly via the contact form at https://wiredimpact.com/about/contact/. Please mention that your note is for Jonathan and I’ll make sure to be the one to respond.
I’m going to mark this as resolved since we’ll be discussing outside the forum.
