    Hi there,

    To start with: nice plugin, does what it asks and works perfectly!

    I have choosen to configure the plugin to only work on the page /springkussen-huren

    But for some reason, the recaptcha symbol still shows on all other pages, which is causing me to have pagespeed issues and performance issue notifications. Is there a way to disable the recaptcha on other pages totally? Only load recaptcha code on the particular page choosen?

    Thanks!

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Our plugin identifies Google and Bing and allows them to pass through.
    I suggest you perform the tests I mentioned to try to avoid conflicts and see what happens. Also, try to eliminate those hundreds of warnings that appear in your console. You could also try using the Cloudflare Turnstile (it’s free) instead of Google reCAPTCHA, although the test I did on our site was with Google reCAPTCHA. However, I have another site where I use Cloudflare (recaptchaforall.com). You can visit them and test them.
    Many other things could be happening, such as malware on your site.
    That’s what I can suggest.

    That plugin is exactly why I needed this plugin in the first place…

    How can I rever to the previous version?

    Have you tested your own site on Google? I run it through Google crawler and it isnt being read by the GoogleBot. That’s a major issue.

    You can download old versions from the WordPress repository. Run a search on Google to find out how to do that.

    I will double-check, but we have a whitelist for search engine bots. Tomorrow, I will provide more details here.

    I’ve just reviewed the code and indeed it doesn’t block access from Googlebot and Bingbot.
    Neither: slurp, Twitterbot, facebookexternalhit, WhatsApp.
    I took the opportunity today to optimize and cache some information to speed up page loading, since every visit from ADA checks the same things. Our site recaptchforall.com has all pages protected and is indexed without any issues by Google. Do a Google search for “recaptchaforall.com” (within quotes) and you’ll see. However, note that Google has various bots and we only let Googlebot through. If you want to allow other bots, use the whitelist tab. We have other plugins that log each visit and show what was allowed and what wasn’t. So, I checked today and everything is working fine.

    After Google entered the AI race, it seems they redirected their top engineers there, and other systems received lower priority. Take this into account when analyzing what they say.
