  • Hi Topkai what is your question?

    @topkai probably is asking for Google’s recently improved reCaptcha service to be integrated into Fast Secure Contact Form. The newest version (of reCaptcha) only uses a captcha when necessary, so it is a lot easier and faster for users that Google’s algorithm thinks are not robots.

    Hi @grapepress, thank you for sharing. @mike Challis would have to check that link above.

    Thank you

    Yeah, I’ll be curious to hear if Mike has interest in integrating this.

    Hi @grapepress in the past this is what @mike Challis said.

    @ grapepress Thank you

    That was exactly what my question was to be ..
    I got a total crash before I was able to complete my post.

    @ mbrsolution..
    Thanks for the link with Mike’s explanation. I understand why he stats so

    Answer:
    No, and here is my explanation:
    At first the idea sounded nice, but then I started looking into the details. That is when I discovered that reCAPTCHA does not allow for more than one reCAPTCHA on the page at one time. Fast Secure Contact Form fully supports multi-forms on same page. I have already included an open-source free PHP CAPTCHA library by phpcaptcha.org. I spent many hours customizing this library so that you can have many forms on the same page with no conflicts. Also the captcha I include does not require any API key to be registered, reCAPTCHA does.

    I also want a smooth user experience and minimal support requests. The fact that reCAPTCHA does not allow for more that one reCAPTCHA on the page at one time is a major problem that would harm my users. Unless this limitation can be easily overcome in an updated reCAPTCHA API, I will not use it.

    Iam no programmer but wouldn’t a possibility to implement the option to add reCAPTCHA (if one has a registered API key) for single usage or CAPTCHA for multi be possiblle.

    The explanation is valid of course, but if the following is correct there is still room for concern:

    This is all about to change as a result of Google’s most recent research, which indicates that smart bots are able to solve even the most distorted text puzzles with more than 99% accuracy.

    (read here)

    I would be willing to consider adding reCAPTCHA but the fact that it cannot facilitate two forms on one page is a reason not to. Sorry. Please voice your concerns with Google for that shortcoming.

    Mike
