 * I’ve only noticed today that once the enquiry form is filled out on the page 
   mentioned and you click the reCAPTCHA tick box then select the three images etc
   and press ok then try and send the form it errors and asks to re-verify you are
   not a robot. Even doing this multiple times doesn’t allow the form to be sent.
   This seems to work fine in Safari etc but not Chrome. Any ideas why?
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fchrome-recaptcha-issues%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Hello,
 * Thank you for bringing this to our attention! It looks like the Javascirpt we
   have in place runs into an issue whenever two Contact Form 7 forms are on the
   same page, specifically when one of the two does not have reCaptcha. This is 
   something we’ll need to investigate further and will push an update once we have
   a tested solution in place.
 * While we patch this issue there are 2 foreseeable options which unfortunately
   require administrative intervention.
 * 1) Add a reCaptcha to the footer email subscription form until a patch for this
   plugin is in place.
 * 2) Temporarily remove the email subscription form until a patch for this plugin
   is in place.
 * We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and will reply back to
   this thread once an updated version of this plugin has been published. In the
   meantime should you have any questions, comments, concerns please reply back 
   to this thread and we can assist you further.

 * Additionally, could you provide us with the Contact Form 7 plugin extensions 
   you may be using? We are having trouble replicating this issue on vanilla installs
   but can replicate it on your website specifically. There may be a plugin conflict
   that needs to be addressed.
 * If you’re comfortable with administrative tasks there is a WordPress [Health Check & Troubleshooting](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/)
   plugin which will allow you to disable all the plugins ( only for your user so
   there’s no live website interruptions ) to help narrow down the issue. Of course,
   we do suggest having a backup of your website and knowing how to restore it should
   something go awry in testing. For more information you may read the plugin documentation
   on how to do this:

 * Hi, thank you for the prompt reply. The following plugins used are:
    CF7, CF7
   Dynamic Text Extension, CF7 Extension for Mailchimp and ReCaptcha v2 for Contact
   Form 7 (which was only used as v3 wasn’t working at all so had to use this plugin
   to rollback to v2). No plugins have been installed or updated in order to cause
   this issue. But will debit with Health Check and get back to you if anything 
   is found.
 * Could the multiple form issue also be the reason as to why v3 has never worked?
 * Many thanks

 * Hello,
 * The reCaptcha v3 built into Contact Form 7 should apply to all the forms on a
   page. It is a learning algorithm. At first it may not block as many spam bots
   and users may get the image checker more often than not but in the long run it
   will learn how users interact with the forms vs how bots interact with the forms.
   The reCaptcha will eventually be able to easily distinguish between the two.
 * It could also be some malformed HTML in the core theme that’s an issue. An unclosed
   tag could cause problems with Javascript being able to find certain elements.
 * We still are having issues replicating this specific issue with the TwentyTwenty
   theme but we’ll install the listed Contact Form 7 plugins and continue testing.
   If or when you run the Health Check Troubleshooting mode, please do let us know
   the results.
