InquiryFlow Pro adds Google reCAPTCHA as a captcha provider option in Spam & Security. Use it instead of hCaptcha when you prefer Google’s service.

Requires active InquiryFlow Pro license.

Step-by-step guide

Create reCAPTCHA keys

  1. Go to Google reCAPTCHA Admin.
  2. Register your site (reCAPTCHA v2 or v3 per your Google console setup).
  3. Copy Site key and Secret key.

Configure in InquiryFlow

  1. Go WP Travel Kit → InquiryFlow → Settings.
  2. Click Spam & Security.
  3. Set Captcha provider to Google reCAPTCHA.
  4. Enter reCAPTCHA site key.
  5. Enter reCAPTCHA secret key (stored securely; not shown after save).
  6. Click Save.

Verify on front end

  1. Open a page with the inquiry widget in a private window.
  2. Submit a test inquiry — complete the reCAPTCHA challenge if shown.
  3. Confirm lead appears in Inquiries.

Only one provider active at a time.

Tips

  • Add localhost and staging domains in Google admin for dev testing.
  • After saving secret, UI shows “secret set” — re-enter to change.
  • If license expires, reCAPTCHA verification fails closed (submissions blocked).

Common mistakes

  • Choosing reCAPTCHA without Pro — option appears but verification fails without license.
  • Domain mismatch in Google console — widget fails to load.
  • Swapping site and secret keys — verification always fails.
