If I use a plain page, directly occurs the same but the text area in blank Example this [http://www.informundo.com/museo/example-html/](http://www.informundo.com/museo/example-html/) With the default theme occurs the same. Thanks * [taborcarlton](https://wordpress.org/support/users/taborcarlton/) * (@taborcarlton) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-recaptcha-2/#post-7509543) * Hi Takayuki, * I’m having a different problem but didn’t want to start a new thread. * When I add the recaptcha code to my form ( like so: [recaptcha] ) the form won’t submit. I take it away and the form will submit fine. I’ve plugged in my google sitekey and secret, wondering if I need to add anything else? * In my searches for an answer I saw a few forum posts about needing to add another plugin to support this, any idea on what the problem could be (or any more information I can give you to help troubleshoot this?) * Thanks * Thread Starter [informundo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/informundo/) * (@informundo) * [9 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-recaptcha-2/#post-7509549) * I tried what taborcarlton says and I have seen my, with recapctcha not send me the forms. Thanks * [Julie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/habannah/) * (@habannah) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-recaptcha-2/#post-7509569) * [@informundo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/informundo/): How many contact forms do you have, and do they all use a recaptcha? I’m having the same problem, but only for my 2nd contact form. I have 2, both using recaptcha, and the first one is fine. * The only difference for me, as far as I can tell, is that the extra text area is blank. Here’s the extra html being generated after my second form: * `

No need for an additional plugin. * When I copied the values for my SiteKey / Secret from the Google console I had copied a whitespace character at the end of the SiteKey value. I went back to check those, edited them and form worked fine. * Thread Starter [informundo](https://wordpress.org/support/users/informundo/) * (@informundo) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-recaptcha-2/#post-7509584) * In my case the key is OK. I test in two sites: One is with rute [http://www.domain.com/test](http://www.domain.com/test) and don´t work. In the rute [http://www.domain.com](http://www.domain.com) work. * [Julie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/habannah/) * (@habannah) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-recaptcha-2/#post-7509588) * I’ve also checked my keys and both are correct — no extra characters of any kind… * [taborcarlton](https://wordpress.org/support/users/taborcarlton/) * (@taborcarlton) * [9 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-recaptcha-2/#post-7509599) * It might be that your server does not support cURL ([http://php.net/manual/en/book.curl.php](http://php.net/manual/en/book.curl.php)) * I’ve implemented a google reCaptcha on a custom site (non-Wordpress) and it used a cURL POST call to validate Google’s reCaptcha data. I’m not sure how Contact Form 7 has implemented this, I would expect it to be along the same lines but I would check your server support for cURL as a starting point. * Hope that helps someone. * [Julie](https://wordpress.org/support/users/habannah/) * (@habannah) * [9 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-recaptcha-2/#post-7509692) * Finally figured this out. For me the issue was caused by incompatibility with a lazy loading plugin. Simply disabling lazy load on the page with the problematic contact form solved everything.
