Form Maker 3.6.4 and reCaptcha

Tom Løkka created the topic: Form Maker 3.6.4 and reCaptcha

Hi :)

I use Form Maker Administrator Component 3.6.4. I recently added reCaptcha but I still got a lot of SPAM. Is the Form Maker component to old or why do I still get a lot of SPAM?
I am using the Form Maker module to place the form on the site.

Is the reCaptcha version 2 (V2)? Here is what is says where i registrered reCaptcha:
www.alnahms.no www.alnahms.no V2 N/A N/A

Attaching the keys from Google and where I used then in Form Maker. (Site key from Google used in Public key in Form Maker and Secret key from Google used in Private key in Form Maker).
Keys from Google:



Keys from within Form Maker:


I am using Joomla 3.8.1.

Okay :) But I have the Business version. Will I find the update in "My Accounts/My Products" when the new version with the fix is ready? ( I see version 3.6.11 there now).

And when the new version is ready, can I just install it "on top" of the version I have or should I uninstall then install?

Kund Regards

Hey, Tom!

That's correct, in case you have Pro version, you will get the update on My Accounts > My Products page. Please install it without uninstalling current version. You will not lose any data this way.

Let me know in case there's anything else we can assist you with.
Thanks! Have a wonderful day!

Hi again

I got a little confused when I updated Form Maker. I found out that I had to set in the keys again and when I click "to set up recaptcha keys click here" I get to the "Global Options". I also see "Google Map key" there, but I think I don't have to have a "Google Map key" for using the new updated Form Maker?

Hi, Tom!

Thanks for checking the new version of Form Maker! Hope it helps to prevent spam.

As for Google Maps API key, please note, that you will not need the key unless you use a Google Map on your form. If you do place Google Maps on the form, it will only display correctly if Google Maps API key is added to Form Maker > Global Options page.

Let me know in case you have further questions.
Thank you! have an amazing day!

It seems that this new version of Form Maker prevent from getting SPAM. No SPAM submissions since the upgrade :)
(I am not the receiver of the form so I checked the submissions).
