Hello. I'm using ChronoForms v8 in Joomla 6.0. The tool works great and I have some working forms.
Question: I'm having difficulty adding the Google ReCaptcha.
- In Google Cloud console I requested a new ReCaptcha site and have my V3 site key and secret key.
- In ChronosForms I added the Google ReCaptcha to my Load page and filled out the site key, secret key and V3.
- When I submit the form it spins forever and doesn't submit anything.
Are there additional steps required to activate/authentica the ReCaptcha? I've never set-up ReCaptcha before so perhaps I'm missing something basic.
Hi Christopher
This should work, but please post a screenshot of your ReCaptcha field settings to be sure, change or hide the key please.
Your page may also has a JavaScript error that's blocking the script, can you test the form in the admin area ? does it have the same problem ?
No, it doesn't work in the Administrator "preview" area either. Same problem, it just spins on submission.The form works in both "preview" and "live" as soon as I remove the Google ReCaptcha form element.
UPDATE: Removed the link.
Thank you.
Hi Chris
Most probably there is a JavaScript error, please send me a link to a form WITH the Google ReCaptcha so I can test it
You can try this: LINK.
Thank you.
Hi Chris
What happens when you switch to ReCaptcha v2, does it work ?
Hi Chris,
I had the exact same issue.The solution is really simple: change the id of the submit button from "submit" to anything else, and your form will work perfectly with ReCaptcha.
Thank you. That solved the problem. Really appreciate it.
I would suggest the Chronos team update the code to either block use of ID = submit, or change their code to account for people using it.
I guess it is not their code. It is the javascript code of ReCaptcha that comes from Google.The issue is quite old, someone bumped into it 9 years ago: https://groups.google.com/g/recaptcha/c/ic8cuIxex2E
However, blocking the use of it, or at least giving a hint not to use it, is a good idea.
