 * With the latest Silentshield Version 3.2.0 I’m getting various issues (tested
   in Firefox / Chrome)
 * I’m using a form created in the latest **Elementor **version 3.35.5, that was
   working without problems in the past.
 * When activating the Javascript protection option, I’m always getting the “Javascript
   Schutz” error, when trying to sumbit the form.
 * Protection Log:[](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/getting-javascript-protection-error-bugs-in-captcha-reload-button/void(0);?output_format=md)

       ```
   
 * Additionally the reload button for the captcha currently doesn’t work. The Button
   is generated as:
 * [[[[[[[[[[<a`href="void(0);" class="cf7 captcha-reload" title="Captcha neu laden"
   >`…
 * And with this href the Button links to a non-existing page of course
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fgetting-javascript-protection-error-bugs-in-captcha-reload-button%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)

 * Hello [@stdorsch](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stdorsch/),
 * thank you for reporting the issue.
 * We have released a hotfix (version 2.3.2) that resolves the problem related to
   the reload icon.
   Additionally, we tested the JavaScript Protection feature with
   Elementor 3.5.5 and were unable to reproduce the issue.
 * Could you please enable JavaScript Protection on your end so we can further investigate
   the behavior in your environment?
 * Best regards

 * I reactivated the JavaScript Protection, now error is back.
   Thank you for the
   reload button fix. But it does not reload the captcha though. Just scrolls to
   the top of the page now.

 * Hello [@stdorsch](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stdorsch/),
 * thank you for your feedback.
 * After reviewing your page, we noticed that our JavaScript files are not being
   loaded. This explains why the JavaScript Protection feature is not functioning.
   
   A check of the network panel confirms that neither our CSS nor JavaScript assets
   are currently being delivered.
 * Please ensure that:
    - All caches have been fully cleared (including server cache, browser cache,
      and Elementor cache).
    - No optimization or performance plugin is preventing our assets from loading
      or unloading them dynamically.
 * Once this is verified, please let us know so we can proceed with further analysis
   if necessary.
 * Best regards,
   Marc

 * You’re right: in die karriere/ Page all the f12-cf7-… assets/includes are missing.
 * But in our /kontakt page the f12-cf7 assets were included correctly. (and the
   form is working correctly here)
 * The difference between the two pages is that the _form _in the /kontakt page 
   was integrated in Elementor in the page directly.
   In the /karriere page the form
   is integrated as an _elementor template_. So maybe WordPress or Elementor assumes
   that here is no form present and therefore the f12-cf7 assets were not included?

 * We also have a dynamic contact form (with silent shield captcha) on our start
   page (speed4trade.com) that can be reached by pressing the “Kontakt” button at
   the bottom.
 * I this page the f12-cf7 assets are **not** being loaded. We did not change anything
   in our form content in the last weeks. So, why is the Silentshield plugin included
   only in pages with elementor forms directly present? Was there a change within
   elementor or the f12-cf7 plugin that causes that?
 * We currently had to deactivate the Javascript and Captcha protection to ensure
   our contact forms are working again.

 * Hello [@stdorsch](https://wordpress.org/support/users/stdorsch/),
 * Please update the plugin to the latest version first. The required settings are
   available after the update.
 * Once updated, open the plugin settings and navigate to the **Extended** tab.
 * There, you can either enable **“Autoload assets everywhere”** or add the affected
   pages to the performance tuning textarea.
 * On your site, a compatibility issue is preventing our plugin from correctly detecting
   the Elementor forms, which stops the CAPTCHA assets from loading.
 * After updating and adjusting the settings, the issue should be resolved.
 * Let us know if you need any further assistance.
 * Best Regards
   Marc

 * With the new version (and the activated asset option) it’s working fine now.
 * Thank you for your quick support!
