Choose a CAPTCHA provider

CAPTCHA 4WP Premium is the paid edition of CAPTCHA 4WP, an antispam CAPTCHA add-on for WordPress. It includes the free version’s setup wizards and support for reCAPTCHA V2 “I’m not a robot,” V2 Invisible, and V3 noCAPTCHA. The free version also lets you set a V3 passmark score and configure failover, and can detect a visitor’s language to show the CAPTCHA in that language.

Premium adds hCaptcha and Cloudflare Turnstile as provider options. The product information describes both as free and GDPR compliant. Configure the selected provider’s keys and options in the plugin settings.

Place checks on selected forms

The base plugin works with WordPress login, user registration, and comments forms. Premium adds one-click integrations for WooCommerce, Contact Form 7, Gravity Forms, WPForms, BuddyPress, and other plugins. In Contact Form 7, use the “Add CAPTCHA” button in the form builder when the Premium integration is available.

For WooCommerce, select a page in the CAPTCHA placement settings and select where the check appears on the checkout page. For native WordPress forms, select the areas where CAPTCHA should appear; for supported third-party extensions, use their integration controls.

Set country and display options

• Use geoblocking to block or limit form submissions and WordPress comment posting by country.
• Adjust the CAPTCHA check text, visual presentation, and position on forms.
• Use the premium whitelisting capability where appropriate.

Install and configure

Install and activate CAPTCHA 4WP in WordPress, then add or enable Premium according to the product instructions. In the plugin settings, choose a provider, configure its keys and options, and select the forms or integrations to use. Test each configured form before making it available to visitors.

Free plugin support is available through the WordPress support forums. Paid customers receive premium support by one-to-one email.
