Google reCAPTCHA

Add Google reCAPTCHA to your forms and help reduce spam submissions.

How to Protect Forms with Google reCAPTCHA in WordPress

Protect your forms with flexible Google reCAPTCHA options

Add a Google reCAPTCHA field to your forms in WordPress to help protect them from spam. WS Form supports all current reCAPTCHA versions: Version 2 image or audio, Version 2 invisible, and Version 3 action-based invisible reCAPTCHA.

To use reCAPTCHA, register your website with Google and add your site key and secret key. You can enter keys on each field or use global site and secret keys for all reCAPTCHA fields.

Version 3 runs silently and provides a spam score on successful submissions. WS Form stores that score with each submission and shows it on the submissions page as a color-coded indicator from 0% to 100%.

  • Current versions supported

    Use Version 2 image or audio, Version 2 invisible, or Version 3 action-based invisible reCAPTCHA.

  • Use global keys

    Enter site and secret keys on the field, or set global keys to use across your reCAPTCHA fields.

  • See spam scoring

    Version 3 submissions include a stored spam score shown on the submissions page as a color-coded indicator.
