Recptcha v3 does not work but v2 does

    2 years, 6 months ago

    I’ve installed the UsersWP Recaptcha add-on, added my site keys for google recaptcha v3, and tested the UsersWP Register and Login pages. v3 does not show up (no tag in the bottom right corner) though I can see there are 2 network requests to the same google recaptcha API as if it’s trying to load more than once. I’m guessing this is because we already have WordPress Login Security by Wordfence using the v3 Recaptcha API as well. Is this a known plugin conflict?

    When I switch to Recaptcha v2 version and credentials, it works, showing the checkbox in the forms. I am guessing that this is because other plugins are using v3 includes already, and by using v2 it avoids that conflict. This is only a workaround for v3 not working.

    However, v3 is much nicer and we would prefer to use that if possible. Is it possible to check if the recaptcha include is already loaded on page by another plugin and to use those credentials and avoid duplicate include or plugin conflict?

    Thanks

    Hi,

    I guess this should be a support request for Wordfence? Because if they didn’t load their script on the UsersWP login page on the front end, there would be no problem.

    You should ask them how to prevent this from happening.

    Thanks,

    I don’t know if that’s the issue or not, that’s why I was asking if you’d tested your plugin or if it’s already a known plugin conflict? Wordfence has like 4+ million installs so I’d think you’d want to test compatibility with it to know if that’s a conflict or not, right? I assume many of your users also use wordfence.

    As far as I can tell, the UsersWP Recaptcha doesn’t protect the rest of WordPress, WooCommerce, etc so another Recaptcha plugin is needed…

    Is there another different plugin you’d suggest that you know works well along side UsersWP Recaptcha? What do you yourself use in combination with UserWP Recaptcha to protect the rest of WordPress on your own sites?

    We use Wordfence a lot because it’s one of the few that doesn’t seem to have as many plugin conflicts actually and it does a really good job of stopping/catching common hacks, but I’m open to suggestions.

    I will open a ticket with Wordfence as well. However if it was possible to detect ReCaptcha includes already on page and use the key to make it compatible with others, that would be ideal.

    Thanks

    Hi,
    There can be conflicts if both are loading V3 JS so I would suggest allowing our reCaptcha addon JS to be loaded on the login and register page as Wordfence will add reCaptcha for default WP login and register and not on UsersWP login and register pages so you can disable reCaptcha from Wordfence. Let me know if that works for you.

    Hi,

    If WordFence is loading reCAPTCHA correctly on UsersWP pages, you shouldn’t need our plugin to do it as well.

    Here the problem is created by WordFence which is loading a script where it shouldn’t, breaking other plugins that are doing the right thing.

    UsersWP is loading the reCAPTCHA script ONLY where it needs it.

    We can’t fix other plugin issues (even if they have 4 million installs).

    This needs to be addressed by WordFence, either by letting exclude pages or ideally, by only loading the script where needed.

    Thanks,
