Rudi JvR asked 2 months ago

I have a Login/Logout page on my site which uses the [frm-login show_lost_password="1"] shortcode for the login form fields.

How do I add a CAPTCHA field to this page?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Victor. I did read this documentation, but I was hoping I was missing something. Unfortunately it seems the only way to get captcha to work with [from-login] is to install another separate plugin.

Thanks again!

This is built in. No plugin is required. https://formidableforms.com/knowledgebase/recaptcha/Login is referenced here: https://formidableforms.com/knowledgebase/recaptcha/#kb-google-recaptcha-verification-failed

Thanks Bobby.

But captcha actually doesn't work with the login form [frm-login]

The Knowledge base says that captcha is not supported for the [frm-login] form.
https://formidableforms.com/knowledgebase/user-registration/add-login-form-to-your-site/#kb-add-recaptcha-to-login-page

"However, there isn't yet a way to add a recaptcha with Formidable Forms."

A bit unfortunate, as site security, especially LOGIN forms is where captcha is suppose to help.
