Hi @georgdem
Unfortunately, this feature isn’t currently built into Formidable Forms. We do not have any immediate plans to add Captcha, but I’ve made a note of your request so we can track and evaluate if this is an option that would benefit a high number of users.
Thanks for bringing this up, and sorry for the limitation!
Best,
Nathanael.
Ok thanks,
a native captcha integration with e.g. hcaptcha as an alternative to Googles reCaptcha will become an important feature soon. As of January 2022 the Austrian Data Privacy Policy has issued a decision about the usage of Google Analytics in websites. (You can find it here in the second section unfortunately only in German: https://www.dsb.gv.at/download-links/bekanntmachungen.html). According to this decision Google Analytics is not legally compliant with GDPR. This decision is not legally binding yet but this will be just a matter of time. With the jurisdiction the decision becomes binding and practically all Google products so also reCaptcha become illegal.
So I think this will affect a lot of users no only in Austria but the EU.
Best,
Georg
Second the request for specifically hCaptcha support as we are phasing out all the intrusive Google spyware like /AMP format pages, and Google’s captcha. We have started using hcaptcha as number of places and working very well 🙂
@neotrope
I’ll make sure a vote is added to the hCaptcha feature request for you.
Best,
+1, would be epic to have google alternative. but also have to say, great that you guys keep the v2.
@datenchef you’ll be glad to hear that our dev team is currently working on hCaptcha integration and this should appear in the plugin soon. 🙂
I came here to upvote this – but delighted to see it;’s being worked on – I’ve been doing all my new projects with hCaptcha and moving older sites over one by one – thanks @njones35 !
Hi @stephroseg
You’ll be glad to learn that our latest release now includes hCpatcha support. 🙂
