 * Hello,
 * Difficult to say. The reCaptcha v3 will not work with v2 keys ( and vice-versa).
   This plugin doesn’t implement v2 until the v2 option is saved in the database(
   from this plugins settings page as mentioned above ). When this option is set
   it remove and adds many Contact Form 7 hooks and replacements them with supplement
   hooks to display the v2 tag.
 * We’ll keep an eye out for similar situations reported by other users, see if 
   there’s a connection to be made, and if there’s a fix that can be implemented.
   In the meantime should you have any ideas, suggestions, or questions please reply
   back to this thread. Have a wonderful rest of your week!

 * Hello,
 * Thank you for the heads up. This is normal behavior. We do not want to override
   the reCaptcha v3 settings until the user is ready to switch to reCaptcha v2 and
   have their keys set properly. This is for users moving from v3 to v2 and have
   their v3 keys set by default.
 * We can look at clarifying this point in our [installation instructions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpcf7-recaptcha/#installation)
   for a future update. Thanks again and have a wonderful rest of your week!

 * Hello,
 * We just wanted to check in and let you know that we’ve pushed an update with 
   the lower priority update added in. You can download the latest version of ReCaptcha
   v2 for Contact Form 7 from the main plugin page. Hopefully this solves your issue,
   thanks for the report. Have a wonderful rest of your week!

 * Hello,
 * Instead of dequeueing the script we remove the action hook that runs the enqueue.
   Whenever the plugin is loaded it adds the action `wpcf7_recaptcha_enqueue_scripts`.
   Then whenever the theme is being setup we remove the hook and add our own hook`
   iqfix_wpcf7_recaptcha_enqueue_scripts`. You can see this in `recaptcha-v2.php`
   LN 22.
 * [https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wpcf7-recaptcha/trunk/recaptcha-v2.php#L22](https://plugins.trac.wordpress.org/browser/wpcf7-recaptcha/trunk/recaptcha-v2.php#L22)
 * Whenever you installed the plugin, did you select in the setting to use reCaptcha
   v2 as the source?
 * [https://ps.w.org/wpcf7-recaptcha/assets/screenshot-1.jpg?rev=2153682](https://ps.w.org/wpcf7-recaptcha/assets/screenshot-1.jpg?rev=2153682)
 * One thing we can do is add a lower priority to our add action hook so, for whatever
   reason the Contact Form 7 hook can not be removed we can reserve the `google-
   recaptcha` handle before Contact Form 7 can use it. It would pretty much be an
   additional fail-safe. This is something we can push in our next update.

 * Hello,
 * Looking at the linked website, the enqueued `api.js` script appears to to be 
   the wrong script. It seems like it’s trying to load reCaptcha version 3 which
   is incorrect ( we can tell because it appends `ver=3.0` to the url ). Have you
   selected reCaptcha v2 in the plugin settings?
 * [Click to view screenshot](https://ps.w.org/wpcf7-recaptcha/assets/screenshot-1.jpg?rev=2153682)
 * The plugin needs to be told to load reCaptcha Version 2 as seen in the screenshot
   above. Once that’s selected it should load a different reCaptcha script with 
   the version 2 keys. Hopefully selecting the above setting solves your issue but
   if not please reply back to this thread and we can assist further. Have a wonderful
   rest of your week!

 * Hello,
 * Researching this topic it appears that a 400 error could be 1 of 2 things. Either
   the white-listed domain on the API key is incorrect ( possibly not spelled correctly)
   or there are multiple reCaptchas on the page from different sources.
 * Before doing the below you should have a backup of your website, know, and understand
   how to restore this back up should something go wrong. While installing and activating
   the below plugin should not cause any site issues; we take no responsibility 
   should something break unexpectedly. This is why having backups and knowing how
   to restore them are important. For more information on this subject please review
   the below link:
 * > [WordPress Backups](https://wordpress.org/support/article/wordpress-backups/)
 * Possibly a theme or plugin conflict also. You may want to install the [WordPress Health Check Plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/)
   which will allow you to safely ( and for your logged in user ) disable plugins
   until you come across the plugin causing the issue. The Health Check Plugin also
   allows you to switch themes to the default theme ( again, just for your logged
   in user ) to see if it’s possibly a theme conflict.
 * [https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/](https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/)
 * Do you have a link to the page where the reCaptcha is that we may be able to 
   view?

 * Hello,
 * Please walk-through the [Installation Instructions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpcf7-recaptcha/#installation).
   An important piece to note is that whenever you setup you Google ReCaptcha keys
   you need to also make sure that your domain is whitelisted. We’ve created an 
   article to help with this:
 * [How to Generate Google reCAPTCHA v2 Keys](https://www.iqcomputing.com/support/articles/generate-google-recaptcha-v2-keys/)

 * Hello,
 * Unfortunately, how often the verification pop-up box appears is out of our hands.
   This is controlled by the Google API and their algorithm decides if/when to show
   this verification box. I do not believe there is a setting to prevent the verification
   box from showing up entirely as if Google’s algorithm decides that your actions
   are suspicious or your site is receiving many bot hits it will show the verification
   box.
 * You can remove the reCaptcha box but this may open your forms to spam.
 * You may try a different plugin such as [Honeypot for Contact Form 7](https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7-honeypot/)
   which tricks bots into checking a hidden input.
 * You may install a simplified captcha solution such as [Really Simple Captcha](https://wordpress.org/plugins/really-simple-captcha/)
   made by the same plugin author as Contact Form 7. He does not recommend this 
   though since it’s an easier captcha to bypass.
 * This kind of issue is unfortunately out of the scope of this plugin since it’s
   entirely controlled by Google. Hopefully you find the above explanation helpful
   or the alternatives as a solution. We’ll mark this thread as resolved for now
   but should you have any questions or comments feel free to reply below. Have 
   a wonderful rest of your week!

 * [6 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/iframe-attributes-2/#post-12178933)
 * Hello,
 * Looking into this, the Google reCaptcha script actually generates the main reCaptcha
   iframe with the frameborder and scroll attributes baked in. Unfortunately, there’s
   nothing we can do about this and seems unlikely that they’ll remove these attributes
   whenever reCaptcha v3 exists.
 * In a future update we’ll remove these attribute from our `<noscript>` iframe 
   fallback but since this is not a high priority issue we’ve decided to wait to
   push this update until later this year or early next year. We’ll mark this thread
   as resolved for now and do apologize if this causes any inconvenience. Have a
   wonderful rest of your week!

 * Hello,
 * Maybe the wrapping the `[recaptcha]` tag in the Contact Form 7 form in a clear
   div is a better solution. Below is an example of what it may look like:
 * `<div style="clear:both;">[recaptcha]</div>`
 * You would need to do this on the Contact Form 7 specific form. Hopefully the 
   above solves your issue but if you find it does not please reply back and we 
   an continue to solve this together. Have a wonderful rest of your week!

 * Hello,
 * We do see that the link above detects that JavaScript is disabled. If this is
   the case you wouldn’t be able to click the images but you would want to click
   the checkbox next to ( or on top of ) the image. Additionally, it looks like 
   the Theme is using some CSS to “float” the Contact Form 7 inputs but it doesn’t
   seem to “clear” the reCaptcha input which could cause issues. Floating elements
   takes them out of the normal flow of content and requires special care to ensure
   that other elements down the line of markup do not get overlaid with an invisible
   barrier ( which is currently the case ).
 * Additionally, we do see a JavaScript error not related to our plugin that may
   be interfering with the functionality. We do have a possible solution you could
   attempt.
 * – – – – – – – – –
 * **Before continuing with the below** we do suggest that you have a ready back
   up of your database and are familiar with how to restore to this backup. We are
   not responsible for any issues, errors, or problems that may arise while following
   the below suggested solution. For more information on backups you may read over
   the following WordPress Handbook link:
 * > [WordPress Backups](https://wordpress.org/support/article/wordpress-backups/)
 * – – – – – – – – –
 * A possible solution for this would be to override what the theme is doing using
   an Internal Style. You’ll need to log into your website admin panel and browse
   to Appearance -> Customize. From here you’ll want to click the Additional CSS
   tab and paste the following CSS to the bottom of the textbox. Finally, click “
   Publish” to push this change live.
 * If there is CSS already in this “Additional CSS” box, don’t remove anything as
   there may be adverse effects. You’ll want to append the following line to the
   bottom:
 * `.wpcf7-recaptcha {clear: both;}`
 * It should look something like the linked image below:

 * Hello,
 * We’ve tested your website on various browsers and browser versions and couldn’t
   replicate what you describe. Could you try a different browser, different PC,
   or different location ( as there may be network security restrictions ). Our 
   guess is a browser extension is causing an issue, maybe something that deals 
   with images. Clearing your browser cache may also help.
 * If you find that can replicate this issue under multiple variations of the above(
   different browser, different PC, different location ) then we would need more
   information to help us replicate the issue such as browser, browser version, 
   OS, and screen resolution. You may follow the link below to retrieve this information:
 * [https://www.whatismybrowser.com/](https://www.whatismybrowser.com/)
 * The above will tell you what add-ons you have installed, your OS, your browser
   and version, and your screen resolution. Hopefully you find that the issue is
   a browser extension but if you find this is not the case please let us know and
   we will look into it further. Have a wonderful rest of your week!
