 * We were able to pull up the website and submit a test submission that appeared
   to go through properly. You do have an “Acceptance” checkbox that is required
   to be checked before the form submits. This is a Contact Form 7 settings / field
   that controls this functionality though.
 * If you’re having trouble receiving email we suggest installing the [Flamingo Plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/flamingo/).
   Flamingo was written and is supported by the same developer of Contact Form 7(
   Takayuki Miyoshi) and will store your form submissions directly into the WordPress
   Admin Panel.
 * For additional help with submissions not reaching your inbox or form field related
   questions ( such as the Acceptance field ) we suggest reaching out to the [Contact Form 7 support forums](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/contact-form-7/)
   to get the best help.
 * We will go ahead and mark this thread as resolved for now but should you have
   any questions or further issues with the functionality of this plugin please 
   reply back to this thread and we can assist you further!

 * Hello,
 * Whenever we visit your website it gives us a 503 – Service Unavailable.
 * > The server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance

   what specifically caused this error.
 * Either way we suggest contacting your hosting provider to help bring your website
   back online. Once your website is online and your form is visible we may be able
   to assist you further.

 * Hello!
 * Thank you for reporting this. This is not an error we have encountered before
   in our testing. We do have the `textarea` you describe in the title but it’s 
   encapsulated by a `<noscript>` tag and meant to address browsers that have JavaScript
   disabled. Unfortunately, Google ReCaptcha requires JavaScript to run properly.
 * If you know the CSPs that you’re setting on the site that may be helpful for 
   us to replace the issue.
 * Additionally, it could be a conflicting plugin or theme related issue that is
   causing these notices to pop-up. Could you supply a list of installed plugins
   or install the [WP Health Check Plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/)
   which will allow you to safely disable all your plugins and revert to a default
   theme. You may read more about this plugin in the [Health Check Documentation](https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/).
 * Any other information you feel will help us recreate or narrow down this issue
   would be appreciated!

 * Hello!
 * If the ReCaptcha badge is showing up at the bottom right of every page that means
   that you’re currently using ReCaptcha version 3. Contact Form 7 supports ReCaptcha
   version 3 by default so if you want to use version 3 then you will not need to
   install this plugin.
 * This plugin allows you to use ReCaptcha version 2 which is an inline ReCaptcha
   input with a checkbox that the user needs to click. ReCaptcha version 2 does 
   not show a badge like version 3 does.
 * If want to use ReCaptcha version 2 please follow the installation instructions:
 * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpcf7-recaptcha/#installation](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpcf7-recaptcha/#installation)
 * If you have any questions after following the above instructions or issues during
   setup please reply back to this thread and we can assist you further.

 * We understand this is an extra step that may seem unnecessary. The reason for
   this extra step was to allow people with ReCaptcha version 3 already activated
   to downgrade if they choose without effecting the front-end of their website.
   By defaulting to ReCaptcha version 2 upon install would invalidate any front-
   end Contact Form 7 forms that run version 3 keys. It’s a step we feel is necessary
   to accommodate users installing this plugin in different situations than fresh
   installs.
 * If you’re referring to Multisite installs, we are currently testing a version
   of the plugin to allow the Network Admins to apply changes to all Network sites
   which we hope to push in the near future.
 * – – – – –
 * Finally, if you are looking for a developmental example of how you could do this,
   below is a code snippet which will update the option whenever the admin panel
   is loaded whether or not the plugin is installed. Since this is a code-based 
   solution we feel the need to stress that you should **apply the below code at
   your own risk** as applied incorrectly could break your website. It’s not an 
   advisable solution for non-developers.
 *     ```
       /**
        * Set default options
        * 
        * @return void
        */
       function prefix_set_default_options() {
   
       	// Contact Form 7 is not installed or not activated.
       	if( class_exists( 'WPCF7' ) ) {
   
       		// If the option exists and is set, return early
       		if( false !== WPCF7::get_option( 'iqfix_recaptcha', false ) ) {
       			return;
       		}
   
       		WPCF7::update_option( 'iqfix_recaptcha', '2' );		// Set ReCaptcha to user v2
   
       	// Attempt to set options for when Contact Form 7 is installed.
       	} else {
   
       		/**
       		 * @see Code written by Takayuki Miyoshi
       		 * @see Contact Form 7 v5.1.1 settings.php LN80
       		 */
       		$option = get_option( 'wpcf7' );										// Get Contact Form 7 Settings
       		$option = ( false === $option ) ? array() : (array) $option;			// If they do not exist, create an array
   
       		// If the option exists and is set, return early
       		if( array_key_exists( 'iqfix_recaptcha', $option ) ) {
       			return;
       		}
   
       		$option = array_merge( $option, array( 'iqfix_recaptcha' => '2' ) );	// Merge the two arrays
       		update_option( 'wpcf7', $option );										// Update Option
   
       	}
   
       }
       add_action( 'after_setup_theme', 'prefix_set_default_options', 20 );

 * You will need to follow the [installation instructions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpcf7-recaptcha/#installation)
   for this plugin, ensuring that:
 * 1) In the plugins settings, ReCaptcha dropdown has v2 selected ( [screenshot](https://ps.w.org/wpcf7-recaptcha/assets/screenshot-1.jpg?rev=2003861))
 * 2) When setting up your Google ReCaptcha API Key you need to ensure that it is
   a version 2 key and not a version 3 or invisible key. Each API key only works
   with the specified version and this plugin only works with version 2.
 * 3) When setting up your Google ReCaptcha API Key you need to whitelist your domain.
 * Takayuki Miyoshi has a good article written up on his website regarding setting
   up ReCpatcha Version 2 on Google which we suggest following:
 * [https://contactform7.com/recaptcha-v2/](https://contactform7.com/recaptcha-v2/)
 * Finally, it may be a plugin conflict. We see there are a few JavaScript errors
   on the website and a few of them are in regards to Google. 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/)
 * The above steps can help you narrow down where the issue lies. Feel free to give
   us a list of your installed plugins and we can attempt to replicate the issue
   on our end, though if a premium plugin is the cause we unfortunately will not
   be able to try it out.

 * Thank you for bringing this to our attention!
 * **– The Technical Explanation –**
    To get this plugin onto the Repository as 
   quickly as we could after Contact Form 7 deprecated ReCaptcha v2 we just ended
   up applying much of the same code as the old version of Contact Form 7. The Contact
   Form 7 plugin uses their own `get_option()` method as a way to pull from it’s
   own saved and serialized array of values.
 * **– What We’ll Do –**
    We will need to look at this carefully so we can both 
   apply this for multisite ( as to help your situation ) but also ensure that it
   doesn’t break backward compatibility for non-multisite setups. It’s something
   that is unfortunately not an immediate fix we can push out to help you at this
   moment but possibly something that will help future users who use multisite setups.
 * We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused and we will keep this
   thread open so you get notified whenever we have either a solution or more information.

 * Could you provide link to your website that’s having the issue?
 * Does the form send whenever this plugin ( Contact Form 7 – reCaptcha v2 ) is 
   disabled?
 * When this plugin is enabled and configured do you see the reCaptcha on the front-
   end of your website, on the form?
 * – – – – – – – – – –
 * If this issue occurs whenever the Contact Form 7 – reCaptcha v2 plugin is disabled
   then the main Contact Form 7 developer would have more insight on why this is.
   We would advise ( if this is the case ) that you create a new support thread 
   using the [Contact Form 7 support forums](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/contact-form-7/)
   as the main developer there will be able to assist you best.

 * Thank you for bringing this to our attention! It does look like that the text
   runs through the WordPress translation function and we have verified that we 
   can change it using the [`gettext` filter hook](https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/gettext/).
   Line 71 is:
 * `esc_html__( 'Please verify that you are not a robot.', 'wpcf7-recaptcha' )`
 * It may be that the strings haven’t been translated to your language yet. [See available languages](https://translate.wordpress.org/projects/wp-plugins/wpcf7-recaptcha).
   WordPress makes adding translations to plugins very easy, if you have some spare
   time you could [submit your translations](https://make.wordpress.org/polyglots/handbook/)
   for your language.
 * Here’s an example of modifying the translation text with a filter:
 *     ```
       /**
        * Modify the WPCF7 ReCaptcha translations
        * 
        * @param String $translation		- What the text should be translated to
        * @param String $text				- Original text to be translated
        * @param String $domain			- Translation text domain of the plugin
        * 
        * @return String $translation
        */
       function prefix_gettext_modifications( $translation, $text, $domain ) {
   
       	if( 'wpcf7-recaptcha' === $domain && false !== strpos( $text, 'you are not a robot' ) ) {
       		$translation = 'Translation Here';
       	}
   
       	return $translation;
   
       }
       add_filter( 'gettext', 'prefix_gettext_modifications', 10, 3 );
       ```
   
 * Hopefully the above brings some light to the issue. Should you have any additional
   questions or need help with anything else please reply back and we can discuss
   the issue further!

 * Thank you for re-enabling the plugin and updating to 5.1.1 – we apologize for
   any inconvenience this may have caused since users were unable to send form submissions
   during this time. That being said we were able to track down the issue of why
   the submit button is not active, it comes down to the themes CSS conflicting 
   with Google’s ReCaptcha CSS.
 * – – – – – – – – – –
 * **The Issue:**
 * Google’s ReCaptcha script adds a static height onto the ReCaptcha field. The 
   theme is then adding margin to the iframe inside the ReCaptcha field container,
   style.css line 941:
 *     ```
       .entry-content embed,
       .entry-content iframe,
       .entry-content object,
       .entry-content video {
       	margin-bottom: 1.714285714rem;
       }
       ```
   
 * The margin combined with the height is adding an invisible overlay on top of 
   the button preventing it from being hovered or clicked.
 * – – – – – – – – – –
 * **Proposed Solution:**
 * You could follow the instructions below to add custom CSS which will solve your
   issue:
 *  – **Log in**to your WordPress site
    – Using the left-hand menu, navigate to **
   Appearance** – Underneath Appearance, navigate to **Customize** – Using the left-
   hand menu items in The Customizer, click **Additional CSS** – Copy and paste 
   the following CSS into the textbox on this tab:
 *     ```
       .wpcf7-form .wpcf7-recaptcha iframe {
       	margin-bottom: 0 !important;
       }
       ```
   
 *  – Click the **Publish** button at the top of this page.
 * This will add CSS to your page which will remove the margin button on the iframe
   that was added by the theme.
 * – – – – – – – – – –
 * We will add this issue on our plugin roadmap to see if there’s anything we can
   do to prevent this happening in the future. That being said the above CSS should
   solve the issue for the shortterm. If it does not or you continue to run into
   issues please don’t hesitate to reply back and we may assist you further!
