 * Hi,
 * The field does not show up on my page.
 * I am getting javascript errors:
 *     ```
       recaptcha__pl.js:525 Uncaught Error: reCAPTCHA placeholder element must be an element or id
           at Object.gJ [as render] (recaptcha__pl.js:525)
           at init_recaptcha_fld_3378317_1 ((index):1558)
           at HTMLDocument.<anonymous> ((index):1565)
           at HTMLDocument.dispatch (jquery.js?ver=1.12.4:3)
           at HTMLDocument.r.handle (jquery.js?ver=1.12.4:3)
           at Object.trigger (jquery.js?ver=1.12.4:3)
           at Object.a.event.trigger (jquery-migrate.min.js?ver=1.4.1:2)
           at HTMLDocument.<anonymous> (jquery.js?ver=1.12.4:3)
           at Function.each (jquery.js?ver=1.12.4:2)
           at a.fn.init.each (jquery.js?ver=1.12.4:2)
       ```
   
 * What can be the reason?
