The Ultimate Member reCAPTCHA plugin adds the Google reCAPTCHA to Ultimate Member Forms (Login, Registration, Password reset), so the main Ultimate Member plugin needs to be installed and active. ### Does this plugin add Google reCAPTCHA to the wp-login.php form? Yes, the plugin can add the Google reCAPTCHA to the WordPress native login form to improve the security of the wp-login.php form. This can help with spam registration via the native WordPress registration form if you have enabled from your wp-install settings to allow anyone to register via the native WP registration method. We support wp-login.php form’s login and lostpassword actions and WordPress native wp_login_form() widget. ### What versions of Google reCAPTCHA does the plugin support? Both v2 and v3. The plugin supports both the checkbox for the 2nd version and the invisible reCAPTCHA of the 2nd version. The plugin doesn’t support Enterprise reCAPTCHA at this time. ### Does this plugin help stop spam registration? Yes, by adding the Google reCAPTCHA to your Ultimate Member registration form, it can help stop/reduce spam registrations. However, this plugin will only protect forms added by the Ultimate Member plugin and the native wp-login.php login/registration form. It does not add the reCAPTCHA to other forms added by other plugins. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/dc2a236aeb9e5d617eeb9a53f4bcb0348d8e0e7a7d54beea7333d4f0431670dd? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Blocks the admin panel](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/blocks-the-admin-panel/)󠁿 [walbadynamics](https://profiles.wordpress.org/walbadynamics/) October 3, 2023 It works first, and then begins to block the admin panel ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/807225c3ea3b68a06bf38e9eeb36b47654652b4ba16c8f1148036daa3e649d0b? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Perfect plugin to avoid spam !](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/perfect-plugin-to-avoid-spam/)󠁿 [DeepBlue](https://profiles.wordpress.org/deepblue5/) February 2, 2023 Perfect and works fine thank you ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/e3700a672ba627836e00a584711ac3e804cc65a5b4c83fae270b678b5a5af741? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Works for me with reCaptcha v3](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-for-me-451/)󠁿 [Natacha](https://profiles.wordpress.org/chickwithbob/) October 6, 2022 Definitely works for me using reCaptcha v3 and WordPress 6.02 and Ultimate Member 2.5 I have it running alongside Formidable Forms’ reCaptcha integration with no issues as I am using more complex functionality for user registrations. One issue I did have was the reCaptcha image in the bottom right corner seemed to be hidden from view. I had to add the style z-index:9999 to make it show. I’m using Elementor hence it may have been caused by a conficting style. A simple CSS addition made it show on top again. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/b3e67993d15870066dbbcfbbcde062d6c55c933e747ed6ca3b4a4fd56dcd8570? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Works great, easy to install](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/works-great-easy-to-install-3/)󠁿 [hieronymus](https://profiles.wordpress.org/pjglynn19/) May 3, 2022 Took 2 minutes to install, worked perfectly out of the box ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/08f54c19b272329e28d63ac8651b1102a006c7f3e7dd2181068d07a38a5da6f5? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[It works well](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/it-works-well-131/)󠁿 [kirkkardashian](https://profiles.wordpress.org/kirkkardashian/) December 21, 2021 It’s easy to install and not broken. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/0670b76ce507ac91c45129a4d5a0edae122224a7b913ef105af82cdd299e56f4? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Absolute Crap](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/absolute-crap-2/)󠁿 [spycraft3r](https://profiles.wordpress.org/spycraft3r/) October 31, 2021 Simple does not work with the latest WP, V2 or V3 reCAPTCHA does not work.
