Captcha not working #27

Closed LukeDouglas2 closed 3 years ago

I have installed the HCaptcha plugin, created a site key for a website and use the secret key. I went to the Joomla Global Configuration and changed the default Captcha to HCaptcha.

I am using Breezing Forms component for my clients Joomla-based websites. On my first test website, I changed the Breezing Forms captcha to the default Captcha which uses the Joomla default Captcha. However, it is not working as I get no popup with the images at all, just a blank field.

Here is the link:

However, on the default Joomla Contact form, it works great.

Thank you for your feedback @LukeDouglas2

I do not know the Breezing Forms code. I suppose that Breezing Forms triggers it's own plugin events in its forms and that it does not use Joomla's Captcha plugin events.

The forms component that I usually use, RSForms Pro, needs its own RSForms hCaptcha plugin: https://www.rsjoomla.com/support/documentation/rsform-pro/plugins-and-modules/plugin-hcaptcha-spam-protection-.html

Maybe Breezing Forms needs it's own hCaptcha plugin as well? See also https://crosstec.org/en/forums/3-breezingforms-for-joomla/127904-hcaptcha-for-breezingforms.html

Closing issue because Breezing Forms apparently uses their own Captcha's
