Contact form spam filters / reCAPTCHA

[Jonas]

Hello,

I’m wondering how to install reCAPTCHA in the best possible way (to stop Contact Form 7 spam). I know there are plugins, but I want to have as few of those as possible.

I speculate that the hook element is the way to go, but I would like some confirmation on this before I waste an hour or two jumping down the wrong rabbit hole. I know that Google Analytics can be added with the hook function.

Kind Regards,
Jonas

Hi there,

Nothing built-in for this so I’d say that plugin solution is your best bet.

GA can be added using hooks as it’s specified to be added into a hook.

Did you find any custom code that you’d like to try? If you link me to it with the instruction from the code author then I can let you know if hooks will work.

I’m guessing it would likely need to be added using functions though.

Let me know 🙂

So this is what I’ve got: https://developers.google.com/recaptcha/docs/display

I use elementor, but perhaps I can just use a HTML-element that is built into the page-builder.

EDIT: I figured it out.

Glad you found a solution!
