 * Hello [@darrylr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/darrylr/)
 * If this is a production site you should still be able to use the WordPress Health
   Check & Troubleshooting Plugin as mentioned in [my previous reply](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/conflict-with-flamingo/#post-13673590).
   This will allow you to safely, and only for your logged in admin user, to see
   and test the default theme ( along with disabling or enabling specific plugins,
   again just for your user ). For more information on how that works I would suggest
   reading the documentation which is also linked in my previous reply.
 * With that being said we’ve also tested this with the latest version of all 3 
   plugins and the latest version of Storefront and could not replicate the issue.
   Unfortunately, until we have more information to help us replicate the issue 
   we won’t be able to formulate a patch. We apologize for any inconvenience this
   may have caused but hopefully using the above information regarding the WordPress
   Health Check plugin will give you more information on the root cause.
 * Once you know more please reply and provide further information on how we can
   replicate the issue you’re running into. Thanks for your patience, stay safe,
   and have a wonderful rest of your week!

 * Hello,
 * After testing this, the reason we do not mark the form as invalid is specifically
   for spambots. The form instead gets marked as “spam” with both the `spam` class
   and `data-status="spam"`. This is to ensure that 3rd party plugins such as Flamingo
   and Akismet pick up on this. Currently, it’s not something we feel should change.
 * You could create your own custom validation following the [Contact Form 7 Help Docs](https://contactform7.com/2015/03/28/custom-validation/).
 * You may also need to look at our `wpcf7spam` javascript event listener in:
    `/
   wpcf7-recaptcha/assets/js/wpcf7-recaptcha-controls.js`<br /> Replicating the 
   functionality here, [removing the event listener](https://www.w3schools.com/jsref/met_document_removeeventlistener.asp),
   and adding your own for [`wpcf7invalid`](https://contactform7.com/dom-events/).
 * Hopefully you understand why we’ve chosen not to set forms as invalid and the
   above instructions help you override this functionality if you so choose. We’ll
   mark this thread as resolved for now but should you have any other questions 
   regarding the above feel free to reply here and we can get back to you. Stay 
   safe and have a wonderful rest of your week!

 * Hello,
 * We’ve tested this under a few conditions and couldn’t replicate any issues with
   submissions not being saved to Flamingo whenever this plugins reCaptcha is involved.
   Sent submissions appear to be saved into “Inbound Messages” as expected. Failed
   submissions, where the user does not enter the reCaptcha does not get saved.
 * Could you provide the reCaptcha settings you’re using ( **not** your API key )
   to help us replicate your issue?
 * Additionally, it might be a theme conflict, you could install the [WordPress Health Check & Troubleshooting plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/)
   to safely revert to a default 2020 theme. Testing in a default 2020 theme will
   let you know if it’s a theme conflict or not. For more information, please review
   their [Handbook on Troubleshooting](https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/).
   You may also want to enable [WP Debug and WP Debug Log](https://wordpress.org/support/article/debugging-in-wordpress/)
   to rule out any PHP errors.

 * Hello,
 * Thank you for reporting this issue. At one point we did have to build in additional
   functionality specifically for Flamingo to work around the reCaptcha tag removal.
   It could be that either this is no longer needed or some hooks have been changed.
   In any case we’ll look into this, try to replicate the issue, and patch it as
   soon as we can. We’ll reply back to this topic with updates as they come to.

   such as
 * [Honeypot for Contact Form 7](https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7-honeypot/)
   or [Really Simple Captcha](https://wordpress.org/plugins/really-simple-captcha/).

   with the given theme should the authors have advice. In anycase, we’ll go ahead
   and mark this thread as resolved for now. Have a wonderful weekend!

 * Hello,
 * There are 2 “themes” which Google provides: Light and Dark. When adding a new
   reCaptcha box to your Contact Form 7 you’ll be able to choose between the two
   themes. The shortcode would look like this:
 * `[recaptcha theme:dark]`
 * Unfortunately, I’m not sure Google allows 3rd parties to customize reCaptcha 
   themes should you find that dark does not suit your needs.

 * Hello,
 * This is a difficult issue to replicate. We apologize for the trouble but could
   you take a [full backup of your website](https://wordpress.org/support/article/wordpress-backups/)(
   and understand how to do a restore ). Then you can install the [WordPress Health Check & Troubleshooting Plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/).
   This plugin will allow you to safely disable plugins and revert to a default 
   theme. For more information you can read over the [Troubleshooting Handbook](https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/).
   We believe it’s a conflict with the theme ( or one of the installed plugins )
   since we cannot replicate it in a normal 2020 theme environment.
 * Here’s the semi-technical overview:
 *  – We do see reCaptcha script being added in the footer of your website but we
   do not see the expected `wpcf7-recaptcha-controls.js` which holds the callback
   function.
    – In our plugin code, for the Google reCaptcha JS script to even be
   added to the page it needs to have the `wpcf7-recaptcha-controls.js` code added
   before hand. See requirements below:
 *     ```
       wp_register_script(
       	'google-recaptcha',		// Slug
       	$url,				// URL
       	array(				// Requirements
       		'wpcf7-recaptcha-controls'
       	),
       	'2.0',				// Version
       	true				// Add to footer
       );
       ```
   
 * The fact that the `google-recaptcha` script is being added to the page but the
   required `wpcf7-recaptcha-controls` is not being added at all leads us to believe
   it’s a conflict with the theme or plugin. Hopefully using the Health Check & 
   Troubleshooting tool will help narrow down where the issue specifically is.

 * Hello [@zonepluss](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zonepluss/)
 * I’m not quite sure I follow your question. Under “Settings > Autoptimize” there
   should be a section for “Exclude scripts from Autoptimize:” where you could paste
   the following:
 * `wpcf7-recaptcha-controls.js`
 * This field expects a comma separated list so if you have other entries already
   in that field you’ll need to prepend a comma:
 * `, wpcf7-recaptcha-controls.js`
 * It may be more beneficial to bring up your issues on the Autoptimize forums as
   they may have more ideas since they are more familiar with their plugin.

 * Hello,
 * Theme or plugin conflicts are always a possibility. Especially when so many plugin
   implement different versions of reCaptcha in various ways. We would suggest doing
   the following:
 * Take a full backup of your theme and database ( you should be doing this regularly
   regardless of issues, backups are great! ). Install the [WordPress Health Check & Troubleshooting plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/).
   This will allow you to safely ( just for your logged in user ) disable all plugins
   except Contact Form 7 and This plugin to see if the issue persists. It will also
   allow you to switch to a default theme to see if the issue lies with the theme
   itself. At which point you can enable plugins until you find the one causing 
   issues. For more information please read their documentation:
 * [https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/](https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/)
 * If you’ve completed the above and the issue persists then the problem may lie
   elsewhere. Looking at your website we could not find any instance of Contact 
   Form 7 or reCaptcha. Hopefully the above helps. Stay safe and have a wonderful
   rest of your week!

 * Hello,
 * If you disable Autoptimize and the issue is resolved then it sounds like it might
   be something specific with either the Autoptimize plugin itself or the active
   settings enabled in the plugin. You may want to reach out to the Autoptimize 
   support team and see what they suggest as it may be a simple settings update.

 * You’re more than welcome to link this thread in your conversation with their 
   team and we’re more than happy to listen to any of their suggestions regarding
   this issue. Hopefully between both our teams we can come to a speedy solution!
 * In any case, we’ll leave this thread open for the time being while you discuss
   this issue with the Autoptimize team. Stay safe and have a wonderful weekend!

 * Under Contact > reCaptcha Version did you are you using the Default Usage or 
   reCaptcha v2? Do you have any plugins that work with or modify WooCommerce? Have
   you tried installing the [WordPress Health Check Plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/)
   and following [their documentation](https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/)
   you should be able to safely disable all plugins except Contact Form 7 and reCaptcha
   v2 for Contact Form 7 as well as switching to a default theme. This will ensure
   there’s no plugin or theme conflicts preventing the plugin from working properly.

 * [5 years, 12 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/white-block-instead-of-recaptcha/#post-13410872)
 * Hello,
 * We’re not sure a different folder structure is the issue, but it’s possible. 
   If folder structure was an issue we would expect to see JS errors of reCaptcha
   not being able to find the callback or not being able to find the file. Maybe
   enabling PHP errors will shed some light on the root cause.
 * If you can’t find a solution or simply don’t have time to debug issues that may
   involve our plugin we can suggest an alternative that may help:

 * Hello,
 * Thank you for linking your website for us to view. We do see the correct scripts
   loading in the correct order and there doesn’t appear to be any Javascript errors
   in the browser console which are all good signs. It’s currently unclear why it
   wouldn’t be loading the full reCaptcha so we’re going to suggest some ideas to
   try:
 * 1) Try changing the reCaptcha source from google.com to recaptcha.net. You can
   see the screenshot below on where to make this change:
 * [https://ps.w.org/wpcf7-recaptcha/assets/screenshot-1.jpg?rev=2153682](https://ps.w.org/wpcf7-recaptcha/assets/screenshot-1.jpg?rev=2153682)
 * 2) Ensure your domain is white-listed, the keys are version 2 keys, and they 
   are correctly input. You can view the Installation tab for full details:
 * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpcf7-recaptcha/#installation](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpcf7-recaptcha/#installation)
 * 3) Maybe try installing the [WordPress Healthcheck & Troubleshooting plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/)
   and follow their [documentation on troubleshooting](https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/).
   This will allow you to safely disable plugins ( Except Contact Form 7 & this 
   plugin ) which will let you know if there’s a plugin conflict or theme conflict.
   If you find it’s a plugin conflict you can come back and let us know and we’ll
   be able to advise on how to move forward.
 * Sorry about this, not an issue we’ve seen before but hopefully the above options
   will help narrow down the root cause of the issue. In any case, stay safe and
   have a wonderful rest of your week!

   you need since we can’t get to the bottom of your issue without viewing the website.
   If you’re looking to enqueue the script yourself you’ll need to call
 * `wp_enqueue_script ( 'wpcf7-recaptcha-controls' );`
