 * Hello Support … very happy with the forms but on the last update 1.4.9 it added
   a tick box regarding an anti-spam honeypot and removed the Google reCaptcha v2.
 * Is this anti-spam honeypot something new?
 * I only understood this when I started to get some spam and re-ticked the reCaptcha
   and all ok now. Should I also tick enable anti-spam honeypot?
 * Thanks

 * Hello [@alexanderweb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alexanderweb/),
 * With the latest update, both Google reCAPTHA v2 and v3 are supported they are
   not removed and to protect from spambot intelligent honeypot feature is introduced(
   remember honeypot is just a hidden field to detect spambot and prevent form submission).
 * Regarding honeypot, you won’t see it in the embedded form at all unless you dig
   into the code. This is because a honeypot field isn’t meant to be visible to 
   regular users — instead, only bots should see it. Then when a bot fills out this
   field, that’s how we know they’re not human and are spambots.
 * Thus to protect from spambots, I suggest enabling honeypot 🙂
 * Regards!

 * **Many thanks Shiva**
 * I have taken your advice and enabled both the antispam honeypot and the Google
   reCAPTHA v2.
 * Appreciate the extra help and understanding on the honeypot and in future I should
   read the release notes and information BEFORE installing any updates so I know
   what new features I am getting.
 * Excellent support and excellent forms !!!
 * Alexander
