I tryed to implement Google Recaptcha to my Websites Contact Form. (I got Bots filling out nonsense)
I know about the Blocs Tutorial, the Captcha Bric and the Keys in the Project Settings. After generating the keys and implementing everything it just wont work. V2 (Connection Failed) V3 just does nothing and in the Google Console I get a „Setup not finished“ Something about Tokens Message. Do I Click activate Token I get on a Explanation that is over my Knowledge.
So… is there a „simple“ Alternative to pervent Bots filling out the Form?
Can I use Alternatives to Google Recaptcha Like Friendly Captcha or does Blocs only work with Google?
Yes the setup in Google Cloud Admin is a little different than the old reCaptcha V2 setup. You can still make V2 reCaptcha that works with Blocs.
When making the new key you’ll want to get to the “Select Additional Settings” then select the slider for “Will you use challenges? Slide this over and this will give you checkbox style control that will work in Blocs. Doing this will give you the first part of the setup for the front end.
Next copy your Site Key and Secret Key and put them into your Blocs site Project Settings. You can find the secret key in the Integrations tab, it will be a text link that says “Use Legacy Key” click it and the key will be shown in a popup.
Next add the reCaptcha to your form “Needs to be in the form, not under it” in Blocs, I usually put it under the message box.
Now it should work.
There is a second step to protect your key and it’s more than I can list here.
