    Dear WP Mission team,

    Thank you so much for coming up with the ‘Simple reCaptcha’ it is what I have been looking for. ??

    I have no problems setting up the plug in and making it appear on my contact form. What I am heavily struggling with is the validation bit.

    the theme I used handles the validation with jQuery and I am completly clueless on how to make it work:

    jquery.validate.js:
    and jquery.metadata.js :

    thank you very much for your time,
    kind regards
    ash

    Hi,

    The Captcha validation is more complex than the jQuery script can handle so it must be handled server-side by the plugin.

    So to use this plugin in its current state, you must be able to add the code in Step 3 on the Description page to the form validation in PHP.

    It’s possible to perform that validation via Ajax which may solve your problem but I haven’t tried that yet.

    What theme are you using?
    Is the contact form in the theme or from another plugin?

    Hi Chris, thank you very much for getting back,

    the page is: https://www.roseofdenmark.co.uk/contact/
    the theme is: https://themeforest.net/item/eatery-responsive-restaurant-wordpress-theme/3469316

    and yes, the contact form is part of the theme.
    would it be wider to use an individual plug in?

    kind regards

    An individual plugin is not necessarily wiser, though you might consider Contact Form 7 + Really Simple Captcha or Fast Secure Contact Form.

    I can help you add the validation to your theme but at that point you own it and any theme updates will likely overwrite our changes. Since it’s a premium theme, you will have to send me the original theme zip file.

    Another option is to ask Themovation to add support for this plugin, as I did with my other plugin Strong Testimonials.

    I will help in any way I can.

    I have contacted the Theme Author, but for now I resolved to use a plug-in: Contact Form Builder and overwrote some styles.

    I mainly work from child themes and think that even when the main theme will be updated, it should not overwrite the validations.

    thank you very much for your guidance on this matter ??

    kind regards
