HI, i used all the same from here

https://wpjobmanager.com/document/tutorial-adding-recaptcha-job-submission-form/

just change the keys.

<?php
// Define your keys here
define( ‘RECAPTCHA_SITE_KEY’, ‘XXX’ );
define( ‘RECAPTCHA_SECRET_KEY’, ‘XXX’ );

// Enqueue Google reCAPTCHA scripts
add_action( ‘wp_enqueue_scripts’, ‘recaptcha_scripts’ );

function recaptcha_scripts() {
wp_enqueue_script( ‘recaptcha’, ‘https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js&#8217; );
}

// Add reCAPTCHA to the job submission form
add_action( ‘submit_job_form_company_fields_end’, ‘recaptcha_field’ );

function recaptcha_field() {
?>
<fieldset>
<label>Are you human?</label>
<div class=”field”>
<div class=”g-recaptcha” data-sitekey=”<?php echo RECAPTCHA_SITE_KEY; ?>”></div>
</div>
</fieldset>
<?php
}

// Validate
add_filter( ‘submit_job_form_validate_fields’, ‘validate_recaptcha_field’ );

function validate_recaptcha_field( $success ) {
$response = wp_remote_get( add_query_arg( array(
‘secret’ => RECAPTCHA_SECRET_KEY,
‘response’ => isset( $_POST[‘g-recaptcha-response’] ) ? $_POST[‘g-recaptcha-response’] : ”,
‘remoteip’ => isset( $_SERVER[‘HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR’] ) ? $_SERVER[‘HTTP_X_FORWARDED_FOR’] : $_SERVER[‘REMOTE_ADDR’]
), ‘https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify&#8217; ) );

if ( is_wp_error( $response ) || empty( $response[‘body’] ) || ! ( $json = json_decode( $response[‘body’] ) ) || ! $json->success ) {
return new WP_Error( ‘validation-error’, ‘”Are you human” check failed. Please try again.’ );
}

return $success;
}

Did you change the keys to your own or not?

yes we did change the keys

Is the exact error shown:

"Are you human" check failed. Please try again.

?

yes

Then the API request is failing. 2 possible causes:

1. You put the API keys in wrong
2. Your server cannot communicate with google servers. Host may be blocking the request.

site key and secret key —- would i be correct in thinking we only need to change the XXX and leave the rest as is?

this is what i have done.
from the comment above…..seems i have all in place…
Do you recommend i call my hosting company then?

site key and secret key —- would i be correct in thinking we only need to change the XXX and leave the rest as is?

Correct.

Do you recommend i call my hosting company then?

Yeah, they might be able to run some tests to make sure your server can communicate with Google, which might be the issue now.

Thanks!

i got this very same problem and i checked my keys, i checked my server and everything looks good.

the only part that i have change on the code is what is in bold due to the fact that i use field editor.

thanks in advance for your help

here is my snippet.
