Uncaught ReferenceError: grecaptcha is not defined

  • Hello. After adding recaptcha v3, I am having an issue submitting my form. I updated to plugin version 5.1.1. I then obtained a v3 key from Google, and entered the site key and secret key into Contact–>Integration. On my contact page, the recaptcha banner appeared in the bottom. But when I try to send a message, it fails, with the error:

    >> Failed to send your message. Please try later or contact the administrator by another method.

    There is also an error in the JS console:

    Uncaught ReferenceError: grecaptcha is not defined

    I see others have had this issue as well (post here I also see this post, with a list of fixes. But it’s not clear to me what exactly they fix. Does that post pertain to me?

    Thoughts on this?

  • The info you supplied indicates reCAPTCHA v3 is not working correctly on your site.

    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).

    Hi,

    I have the same problem, i have the The7 theme.

    Is a problem known with this theme?

    Thank you in advance !

    pexys – I’m not sure if you found a fix, but I was in a similar spot and this worked for me. In The7 go to Theme Options -> Advanced -> Custom JavaScript button. Here is where you typically put your Google Analytics tracking code. You can put this bit of code at the top above that and click save.

    <script src="https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js" async defer></script>

    I have the same problem on two different websites using the Graphene-Theme.

    Adding the custom javascript didn’t solve the problem.

    I’ve changed the theme to Twenty Twenty and it didn’t fix the problem. I guess it is not theme related.

    Got it fixed by adding “recaptcha/api.js” to “JS Deferred Excludes” in the LightSpeed Cache plugin.

    Thank you @fbreve

    Adding the “recaptcha/api.js” to “JS Excludes” in LightSpeed plugin worked perfectly.

    I’m getting same js errors. Forms are not working at essexflorist.net. Is it possible to get additional information on the potential fixes mentioned above?

    Thank you!
