Hi all,
sending an email via the contact form with reCaptcha3 and honeypot enabled does not work. It only works with honeypot deactivated, at least for me.
Is there probably a fix?
Best regards,
Oliver
It’s working for me. I seem to remember @Ben pushing a fix for something similar. Maybe it was a silent update?
Anyway, try a Reinstall All from your Backlight Modules page (only because I don’t remember if there was a specific module to reinstall)
Do you see the Address field when honey pot is enabled? This shouldn’t be visible.
Hi thank you,
it seems to be working again after I reinstalled a second time.
Best regards,
Oliver

Since my full backlight went live I have started to get spam email. I have re-enabled ReCaptcha and enabled Honey pot. With Honeypot enabled I have sent myself test emails, with a different address that that entered into Backlight. Nothing is recieved until i disable Honeypot. Recently I reinstalled all modules and everything is currently up to date. Do I have to do anything other than enable Honeypot.
I have noted that there is a visible Address Field only when Honeypot is enabled and debug ReCaptur does not display any debug info.
Hi @speacock110, the address field is added into the page when the honeypot is enabled. However the CSS should be hiding it. The idea is that bots will not know that the field is hidden, attempt to fill it and then be flagged as spam.
I suspect that something in your custom CSS file is overriding this directive (perhaps .main article p { display: block;. I have made a silent update to prevent this from being overridden. Can you visit the Backlight Modules page and reinstall the kookaburra-page module. You should then be able to enable the Honeypot without that field showing.
Thanks tested no Adress box and email sent and received with honeypot enabled
