you can try their own form plugin
I ended up at that conclusion also, but I appreciate your note since it would have got me on the right path. I am using ‘Contact Form 7’ but did not know to add the CAPTCHA tag. I am learning a lot today.
for looking out for the newbies, John.
Hi ChuxMark,
The compatibility with Contact Form 7 plugin is available in the Pro plugin version – http://bestwebsoft.com/products/captcha/.
Also, you can add captcha to the custom form manually using a Free plugin version. To do so, please follow the instructions below:
1. Install the Captcha plugin and activate it.
2. Open the file with the form (where you would like to add the captcha to).
3. Find a place to insert the code for the captcha output.
4. Insert the necessary lines:
if( function_exists( 'cptch_display_captcha_custom' ) ) { echo "<input
type='hidden' name='cntctfrm_contact_action' value='true' />"; echo
cptch_display_captcha_custom() } ;
If the form is HTML you should insert the line with the PHP tags:
<?php
if( function_exists( 'cptch_display_captcha_custom' ) ) { echo
"<input type='hidden' name='cntctfrm_contact_action' value='true'
/>"; echo cptch_display_captcha_custom(); } ?>
5. Then you should add the lines to the function of the entered data checking
if( function_exists( 'cptch_check_custom_form' ) &&
cptch_check_custom_form() !== true ) echo "Please complete the
CAPTCHA."
or
<?php if( function_exists(
'cptch_check_custom_form' ) && cptch_check_custom_form() !==
true ) echo "Please complete the CAPTCHA." ?>
You could add this line to the variable and display this variable in the
required place instead of echo "Please complete the CAPTCHA.". If
there is a variable (responsible for the errors output) in the check
function, this phrase can be added to this variable. If the function
returns ‘true’, it means that you have entered captcha properly. In all
other cases the function will return ‘false’.
