 * Hi
    I’m embedding the widget in the footer area but recaptcha seems to be covering
   the form fields. is there a way to fix this or turn off recaptcha in the widget?
   Thanks James

 * Hey James,
 * You can’t turn the recaptcha off on the widget but you could use our shortcode
   in a widget and use the `recaptcha="0"` parameter.
 * Or, you could send us the password to access your site and we could add some 
   custom CSS for you to fix the spacing issue.
 * Let me know how that sounds.
 * Cheers,
    Kevin.

 * Thanks Kevin, sounds good. I did try the shortcode in the footer but it was massive
   presumably because it’s supposed to be used in a page. Can i direct message you
   the password somehow rather than post on here?

 * Agh yeah, the support for shortcodes in widget areas is still pretty poor. You
   can send us the password at plugins at yikesinc dot com.
 * Thanks,
    Kevin.

 * As of 6.3.30, you can remove the `recaptcha` from your widgets by using a filter
   function like this:
 *     ```
       add_filter( 'yikes_mailchimp_widget_shortcode_attributes', 'remove_recaptcha_from_easy_forms_widgets', 10, 2 );
   
       function remove_recaptcha_from_easy_forms_widgets( $shortcode_attributes, $widget_attributes ) {
        	$shortcode_attributes['recaptcha'] = '0';
        	return $shortcode_attributes;
       }
       ```
