 * Hello,
 * There have been a few reports of compatibility issues with WP Rocket, but we 
   haven’t found an optimal workaround. We recommend adding the reCaptcha Callback
   script into the script excludes. Specifically, we want to make sure that the 
   load is not being deferred, then if you’re still running into issues you can 
   add it to the modification exclusions.
 * The script slug is: wpcf7-recaptcha-controls
 * The script relative URL is:
    /wpcf7-recaptcha/assets/js/wpcf7-recaptcha-controls.
   js
 * You may need to reach out to WP Rocket for specifics but here are some documentation
   we found on the WP Rocket website:
 * [https://docs.wp-rocket.me/article/976-exclude-files-from-defer-js](https://docs.wp-rocket.me/article/976-exclude-files-from-defer-js)
 * [https://docs.wp-rocket.me/article/915-find-the-right-js-files-to-exclude-from-minification](https://docs.wp-rocket.me/article/915-find-the-right-js-files-to-exclude-from-minification)
 * Hopefully, with the above instructions you’re able to solve your issue. Should
   you have any additional questions please reply back to this thread and we will
   assist further. Have a wonderful rest of your week!

 * Hello,
 * Looking at the latest version of Contact Form 7 (5.5.6.1), the action we’re removing
   is still priority 20.
 * contact-form-7\modules\recaptcha\recaptcha.php LN 25
 * We do test our releases with the latest version of Contact Form 7. If your ReCaptcha
   is not showing it, please ensure that you’ve thoroughly followed the Installation
   instructions linked below:
 * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpcf7-recaptcha/#installation](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpcf7-recaptcha/#installation)
 * If you’re working with a custom theme, ensure that the Header calls `wp_head()`
   and footer calls `wp_footer()` functions as they are required. If you link your
   website, we can also take a look and might have more ideas.
 * Hopefully, you’re able to solve your issue using the above information, but should
   you have any questions, please reply to this thread, and we can assist further.
   Have a wonderful rest of your week!

 * Hello,
 * It does look like the ReCaptcha is implemented properly. Note that at this point
   in its lifecycle, Google recommends upgrading to ReCaptcha v3.
 * Below We’ll outline some methods to help fight against spam:
 *  – We see you have a plaintext email address in the footer of your website. While
   this is nice for visitors, bots can scrap this email address and add it to their
   spam lists. We recommend removing this in favor of linking to your contact page.
 *  – Depending on the Spam you’re receiving, you can block specific email addresses
   or keywords by visiting “Settings > Discussion” in your admin panel. In the “
   Disallowed Comment Keys” section, you can enter specific keywords to block – 
   any contact form submissions which have these keywords, email addresses, or IP
   addresses that you input here will be marked as spam and not sent. For more information,
   we recommend reading the Contact Form documentation regarding this subject ->
   [https://contactform7.com/comment-blacklist/](https://contactform7.com/comment-blacklist/)
 *  – In your Google Recaptcha Admin Console, in API key settings for your ReCaptcha
   v2 API Key is a Security Preference you can increase to try and mitigate Spam
   submissions. For more information, please see Googles documentation -> [https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/settings](https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/settings)
 *  – Upgrade to ReCaptcha v3. You would no longer need this plugin installed as
   Contact Form 7 inherently supports v3 out of the box. ReCaptcha v3 is what both
   Google and Contact Form 7 recommend as a modern solution to Spam prevention. 
   For more information, please review Contact Form 7’s documentation -> [https://contactform7.com/recaptcha/](https://contactform7.com/recaptcha/)
 * Hopefully, using the above notes, you’re able to mitigate the Spam submissions
   that you’re receiving. Should you have any questions, comments, or concerns, 
   please reply to this thread, and we can assist further. Have a wonderful rest
   of your week!

 * [@ajtruckle](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ajtruckle/) Unless you have 
   something explicitly hiding the Google ReCaptcha badge, your concerns are justified.
   While this is out of the realm of support here for this plugin, it does look 
   like your webpage is loading 2 versions of Google ReCaptcha with different sitekeys.
   One comes from the Simple Download Monitor and another from Contact Form 7. I
   would recommend that both plugins use the same version of ReCaptcha (v3) and 
   that the API key is the same for both. It might also be an issue that Simple 
   Download Monitor is also calling the Google Recaptcha API early in the header
   and Contact Form 7 is calling their own in the footer. You may try to disable
   this plugin and see if the badge appears, then take steps to resolve it.

 * Hello [@ajtruckle](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ajtruckle/)
 * One important note I forgot to mention is that WordPress has it’s own built-in
   spam filtering system that you may find helpful. In theory, using this method
   should work regardless of what plugin you choose to use to prevent spam.
 * Under “Settings > Discussion” is a texarea for “Disallowed Comment Keys”. One“
   Key” per line. Populating this with a list of “disallowed” keywords should mark
   any submission with keywords found as Spam. For example, if you’re getting many
   emails that use the word “explicit” but not something your clients would submit
   with, adding “explicit” to the list would mark the submission as spam upon submission.
 * For more information please review Contact Form 7’s article on the subject:

 * Hello [@ajtruckle](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ajtruckle/)
 * ReCaptcha v3 is the default for Contact Form 7. If you’re going the v3 route,
   you won’t need this plugin (ReCaptcha v2 for Contact Form 7) installed. For more
   information on Contact Form 7’s ReCaptcha v3, you may review the article linked
   below:
 * [https://contactform7.com/recaptcha/](https://contactform7.com/recaptcha/)
 * Should you have any questions regarding this implementation you may open a thread
   on the [Contact Form 7 Support Forums](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/contact-form-7/).
   ReCaptcha v3 is a learning algorithm since it loads throughout the site and monitors
   user activity. It may take a couple of weeks before you see meaningful results.
 * Hopefully, using v3, you’re able to solve your spam issues. Should you have any
   other questions, you may reply to this thread. Have a wonderful rest of your 
   week!

 * [@ajtruckle](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ajtruckle/) Thank you for providing
   your website! We’ve taken a look at the contact form, and it appears to be working
   as expected. The form doesn’t submit without filling out the reCaptcha. Disabling
   Javascript and trying to submit also comes back with an expected error. Unfortunately,
   it’s unclear how spam submissions are getting through at this time.
 * If you continue to have spam issues it may be best to try one of the alternatives
   suggested in our previous reply, [Akismet](https://akismet.com/), or upgrade 
   to ReCaptcha v3. Hopefully using one of these solutions you’re able to resolve
   your spam troubles.

 * Hello,
 * It’s difficult to say without being able to compare the two sites or two plugins.
   Bots usually find it easier to harvest email addresses than to submit contact
   forms (I.E., plaintext email addresses). ReCaptcha v2 is also not 100% bulletproof,
   so Google recommends ReCapatcha v3.
 * We are certainly open to suggestions or feature improvements as our code is open
   source. If you would like to provide your website URL we can also take a look
   to ensure that the reCaptcha is set up properly. Finally, you may also try these
   alternatives which support Contact Form 7:
 *  – [CF7 Invisible reCAPTCHA](https://wordpress.org/plugins/cf7-invisible-recaptcha/)
   –
   [Invisible reCaptcha for WordPress](https://wordpress.org/plugins/invisible-recaptcha/)–
   [Contact Form 7 Captcha](https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7-simple-recaptcha/)
 * Hopefully using one of the above solutions you’re able to secure your contact
   forms. Otherwise, should you have any questions please reply back to this thread
   and we can assist further. Have a wonderful rest of your week!

 * Hello,
 * This plugin was put together solely to replace the dropped support for ReCaptcha
   v2 in the Contact Form 7 plugin. Unfortunately, at the end of the day, Google
   works on the actual reCaptcha implementation and recommends moving to version
   3 as version 2 is not as strong as it once was. Technology has changed a lot 
   since ReCaptcha v2s initial release in 2014. If you dislike ReCaptcha v3 and 
   bots are penetrating ReCaptcha v2, you may want to try a different Recaptcha 
   entirely, such as [hCaptcha](https://wordpress.org/plugins/hcaptcha-for-forms-and-more/).
 * Hopefully, you’re able to find an alternative solution to your spam problems.
   Should you have any questions, comments, or concerns in regards to this plugin
   please [open a support thread](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wpcf7-recaptcha/)

 * Hello,
 * It’s difficult to say without being able to see the website. It could be that
   the installed theme is missing a call to the required `wp_head()` or `wp_footer()`
   functions. You could also check if any other activated plugins use ReCaptcha,
   which may be overriding the functionality of this plugin. You may also try to
   go through the [Installation Instruction](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpcf7-recaptcha/#installation)
   again to see if anything was missed.
 * Before doing the following, you should have a backup of your website, know and
   understand how to restore this backup 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 is important. For more information on this subject,
   please review the below link:
 * If a theme or plugin is conflicting, you could 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 a theme conflict.
 * For more information, please review their documentation below:

 * Hello,
 * We’ve just pushed update 1.3.9 which should hopefully address this issue. In 
   the last few versions, the reCaptcha script was enqueued globally to support 
   Full Site Editing themes (which do not support late/inline enqueues). Now, we’ve
   added a conditional which should enqueue as needed on non-FSE websites. Please
   update to the latest version of this plugin, clear the cache, and if you still
   have issues with it displaying you may reply back to this thread and we can investigate
   further. Have a wonderful rest of your week!

 * Hello,
 * One of your plugins is blocking the Google ReCaptcha script. Looking at the source
   of your page, the `google-recaptcha-js` script in the footer has an “unblocked_src”
   attribute with the URL.
 * You may want to install the WordPress Health Check Plugin which will allow you
   to safely ( and just for your logged-in user ) disable plugins until you come
   across the plugin causing the issue. For more information please review the documentation
   linked below. It’s also recommended that you reach out to your hosting provider

 * – – – – –
 * There’s no real difference between google.com and recaptcha.net. They’re both
   run by Google and recaptcha.net is generally used in countries where google.com
   is blocked by the government. One possible reason that it shows when using recaptcha.
   net is that plugin blocking Google ReCaptcha does not recognize it.

 * Hello,
 * It looks like the ReCaptchas on the current forms is not this plugin ReCaptchas.
   Are there any caching/minifying plugins like WP Rocket or WP Super Cache installed?
   If so, you might try adding the following to the excluded modification/concatenation
   list:
 * `/wp-content/plugins/wpcf7-recaptcha/assets/js/wpcf7-recaptcha-controls.js`
 * Ensure that the plugin is up to date.
 * Additionally, you can install the [WordPress Health Check & Troubleshooting Plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/).
   This will allow you to safely disable plugins and revert to a default theme. 
   You may [read over their documentation](https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/)
   for more details. Using this method, you can narrow down if there are any conflicts
   with other plugins or themes.
 * This seems like a plugin conflict as we can’t replicate the issue on our end.
   Having multiple forms in the content works as expected, using `apply_shortcodes()`
   in the footer and having one in the content works as expected. The above suggestions
   are our best guess to help narrow down the issue.
 * Should you continue to have issues with our plugin, here are some alternatives
   that claim to work with Contact Form 7:
 * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/invisible-recaptcha/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/invisible-recaptcha/)
 * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/astoundify-recaptcha/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/astoundify-recaptcha/)
