reCAPTCHA Field

The reCAPTCHA field is available in every version of Profile Builder and it can be used to protect your forms against spam user registrations.

In order for this field to work you will need to generate the keys for it on the Google reCAPTCHA website.

The type of credentials you generate depends on the type of reCAPTCHA you want to use. We offer the reCAPTCHA v2 Checkbox, reCAPTCHA v2 Invisible, and reCAPTCHA v3 implementations.

You can select which version you want to use when adding the field to your forms by using the reCAPTCHA Type dropdown:

You can also edit the field title (will be shown only if reCAPTCHA v2 is selected) and choose where the field should appear.
This field can be added to the login, register, and recover password forms created with our shortcodes and also to the default WordPress forms.

reCAPTCHA v2 Checkbox

If reCAPTCHA v2 Checkbox is selected as the field type, it will look like this:

Profile Builder - ReCaptcha Field Front-End

reCAPTCHA v2 Invisible

The Invisible reCAPTCHA type works a bit differently as nothing is shown initially in your forms. A call to it is made when the form is submitted and it will display, requesting the user to solve a captcha, only if the current request is considered suspicious:

reCAPTCHA v3

The reCAPTCHA v3 is also a type of invisible CAPTCHA designed to be more user-friendly by eliminating the need for user interaction. Unlike reCAPTCHA v2, which requires visible challenges like the “I’m not a robot” checkbox or image selection, reCAPTCHA v3 works entirely in the background. It analyzes user behavior patterns to determine whether a request is likely from a human or a bot. This approach enhances security against bots and spam without disrupting the user experience, providing seamless protection for your site.
