The recaptcha hook¶

The recaptcha hook will enable reCaptcha support for FormIt forms.

First off, add "recaptcha" to your &hooks parameter in your FormIt call. Then you'll need to include the following placeholders in your form:

[[+formit.recaptcha_html]]
[[!+fi.error.recaptcha]]

The first placeholder is where the reCaptcha form will be rendered; the 2nd is the error message (if any) for reCaptcha.

Finally, you'll need to setup your reCaptcha private and public keys in System Settings. The settings available for reCaptcha are:

Name	Description
formit.recaptcha_public_key	Your reCaptcha public key.
formit.recaptcha_private_key	Your reCaptcha private key.
formit.recaptcha_use_ssl	Whether or not to use SSL for reCaptcha requests. Defaults to false.

The reCaptcha hook has a few extra configuration options:

Name	Description	Default
recaptchaJs	A JSON object to pass into the RecaptchaOptions var, which configures the reCaptcha widget. See the official reCaptcha docs for more information.	{}
recaptchaTheme	The recaptcha theme to use.	clean
