ReCaptcha v3 Breaks all Contact Forms

    I updated Contact form 7 and added recaptcha v3 to 10 different websites, none of the forms work now.

    I have had to remove ReCaptcha to get it to work again.

    It seems numerous people are having this issue and for me to have the same issue on 10 sites proves there’s a problem with the plugin and it has been an issue since the last update.

    For this to have not been fixed shows that this plugin is nearing its end of life.

    Is there any idea of when it will be fixed? or shall I advise people move to an alternative contact form if support and updates are to be so sporadic?

  • CF7 5.1.+ updated to reCAPTCHA (v3).

    The info you supplied indicates reCAPTCHA v3 was not working correctly on your sites.

    See Contact Form 7 5.1.1 – theme needs to properly loads JavaScript in the footer area of each page.

    Switch temporarily (nothing will be lost when you switch back) to a WP default theme to see if the problem goes away.

    If this fixes the problem & you can’t get your theme fixed, you might try using Contact Form 7 – reCaptcha v2 in addition to Contact Form 7. Once installed and configured it offers the same reCaptcha functionality you are used to in previous versions of Contact Form 7 (recommended by CF7 plugin author).

    NOTE: It’s also possible that you made an error when adding your recaptcha v3 API keys – these are different from any previous recaptcha v2 keys.

    All of my sites run the Genesis framework, one of the most popular themes out there.

    I will contact their premium support and have them investigate.

    @florencekarin install the plugin “contact form 7 recaptcha v2” and switch back to v2.
