Plugin Error Troubleshooting
There are two types of error that may occur when using the Invisible reCAPTCHA plugin:
...
What is a reCAPTCHA widget error?
reCAPTCHA widget error occurs when the widget on the frontend is unable to function properly.
For example, you may have chosen the v2 tickbox option instead of the v2 invisible option.
...
Because of this error, the "Form Submitted" message is not shown on the top left corner of the Formform will not be submitted.
What is a Plugin validation error?
...
This error occurs when the reCAPTCHA plugin is unable to perform backend validation to verify the user that has submitted the formWe will explain how Plugin validation error can occur by demonstrating how an error as such can be replicated.
To replicate an error as suchis very simpleFor example, to simply replicate a Plugin validation error, you only have to provide an invalid reCAPTCHA secret key.
You can change a letter to a different letter or simply make up a reCAPTCHA secret key that does not exist.
For now,
This is how a Plugin validation error looks like.
Because of this error, the error texts are shown on the top left corner of the Form instead of the "Form Submitted" message.

let's see what will happen if we do not add a Custom error text and we disable the Debug mode.
Following the configurations demonstrated, the Plugin validation error has been replicated:
- "Validation Error" is printed out to show app designers that the validation has failed
- "reCAPTCHA error" is a default error text printed out if no Custom error text is added
- protected by reCAPTCHA widget does not show an red error message like what happened in What is a reCAPTCHA widget error?
In this case, Debug mode is disabled, so you will see the default error text.
But note that if Debug mode is enabled, you will see neither default error text or Custom error text (even if you have added it).

Tip: Hover on the tooltips (? icon) in Edit Invisible reCAPTCHA configuration to read what each configuration properties mean.
are used for, once again the reCAPTCHA secret key is made invalid to replicate the Plugin validation error.
In this example, the Custom error text is set as "Invalid reCAPTCHA secret key: Please ensure you secret key is valid!".
The Debug mode needs to be disabled for now in order to show the Custom error text on the top left corner of the Form.
Remember to click Apply Change and save the form.
Now you are able to see how Custom error text works.
Instead of printing out the default error text, the Custom error text is printed out.
You see "Invalid reCAPTCHA secret key: Please ensure you secret key is valid!" instead of "reCAPTCHA error".
Now that we have seen how Custom error text works, the next section explains Debug mode.
| Info | ||

Some app designers may want to come out with their own error text instead of using the default error text "reCAPTCHA error". Feel free to provide a meaningful error text message. With Custom error text, app designers can decide what messagethey want to display to end users. |
What is Debug mode for?
With the same invalid reCAPTCHA secret key and Custom error text, but this time Debug mode is enabled.
Remember to click Apply Change and save the form.
Notice that enabling Debug mode results in the Custom error text not being printed out, even though the Custom error text is being added.
Instead, the top left corner of the Form shows two error messages:
- "[reCAPTCHA DEBUG MODE ENABLED!]" states that Debug mode is enabled, to warn app designers that additional error info are available in the server log
- "reCAPTCHA error: invalid-input-secret" states that the reCAPTCHA secret key is invalid
Availability of the plugin
The Invisible reCAPTCHA plugin will only work in some situations.
See table below:
Normal Form | Only a singleplugin can exist and work as intended. Multiple plugins can be loaded into a single Normal Form, but only the first plugin will be functioning. |
| Sub-Form | A plugin cannot work as intended in a Sub-Form, but it can work in the Base Form. |
| CRUD Datalist "New" | Has identical performance and outcomes with the Normal Form and Sub-Form:
|
CRUD Datalist "Edit" |
Custom error text & Debug mode
What is Custom error text for? incomplete
image to be inserted here later..
Custom error text is designed to be shown to end-users when there is a plugin validation error.
Without using the Custom error text configuration property, the top left corner of your Form will only show "Validation Error" and a default error text of "reCAPTCHA error" when plugin validation error occurs
- Error texts as such do not explain much on what the validation problem is, therefore Custom error text can be used to elaborate the validation problem to end-users
- To produce a meaningful error message or text, you should first understand what a plugin validation error is
What is Debug mode for? incomplete
Enabling Debug mode allows error messages to be printed out for end-users to see.
