v3 reCAPTCHA not saving in Forminator Settings

I have (to my knowledge) configured Forminator with v3 reCAPTCHA keys. However, reCAPTCHA appears not to be executing successfully in the page. When I return to Forminator reCAPTCHA settings in the WordPress menu …

Forminator > Settings > CAPTCHA

… the reCAPTCHA key settings have RESET to V2, and the “ERROR for site owner: Invalid key type” displays below the keys.

I then select “v3 reCAPTCHA,’ the error disappears, and then select Save.

When I click out of ‘Settings,’ back to the ‘Dashboard’ (for example); and then click back into:

Forminator > Settings > CAPTCHA

.. the reCAPTCHA key settings have RESET to V2, and the “ERROR for site owner: Invalid key type” displays below the keys again.

Unsure why the v3 reCAPTCHA save isn’t saving.

The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

Hi @kbuhl

I hope you are doing well.

Just to make sure we cover the basics first, could you confirm if the type is the same you are entering and if you have the domain configured https://monosnap.com/file/b5XVEeJIEc9mptJzKi0A38chJxFWnu ?

Google

Hi @kbuhl

Just an update: I noticed that part of my response didn’t come through.

Google is making some changes in the ReCaptcha and moving it as a paid service, I suggest having a look at our hcatpcha integration; it is a good alternative.

Hi Patrick. You are correct: reCAPTCHA is now a paid service. Therefore, it wouldn’t work without the annual fee. (This wasn’t very clear on Google’s website. But then, what, if anything, is clear on any Google websites?)

Per your suggestion I have installed and configured hCaptcha, and it’s working perfectly.
Thank you for your assistance.

PS, For anyone reading this post, to configure hCaptcha:

hCaptcha website
• Create an account on hCaptcha.
• Created a secret key, and a site key for each website on my hCaptcha account.

WordPress
• Install the hCaptcha for WP plugin on your WordPress site

hCaptcha plugin
• In the hCaptcha plugin General settings, enter the site key and the secret key.
• in the hCaptcha plugin Settings, ‘check site config.’ If the configuration is correct you will see “Site config is valid.”
• Enable ‘Forminator’ in the hCaptcha Integrations tab.

Forminator
• In the Forminator settings page, enable the hCaptcha plugin (the page confirms “hCaptcha plugin is active.”
• When creating a Forminator form, insert the ‘Captcha’ field. When configuring the field, select ‘hCaptcha’ instead of ‘reCAPTCHA.’
