# Cannot activate reCaptcha

 * Hi, I am following the directions in [https://wpforms.com/docs/how-to-set-up-and-use-recaptcha-in-wpforms/](https://wpforms.com/docs/how-to-set-up-and-use-recaptcha-in-wpforms/)
   but cannot install reCaptcha.
 * The problem is that although I went over the sugested process there is never 
   an instance where the form to enter the key is available.
 * When I look for the reCaptcha button under the Standard Fields section I still
   find the regular Captcha option that takes me to the same described process again.
   
   Any suggestions?
 * Thanks

 * I found where the data entry fields are: in the plugin settings on the WP dashboard.
   Resolved for me. Thanks.
