I recently replaced the keys for my Google Recaptcha for another plugin that I have installed on my website. Unfortunately I forgot to update the keys in WPForo, and can no longer login to /admin.

Where in the database or in the file structure can I update or clear the previous entries?

Thank you

I'm sorry but there is no way to update it in database, it's serialized as an array and stored with other options. The only way is changing /wpforo/ folder name in /wp-content/plugins/ directory. Once you changed, it'll be deactivated automatically. Then login, change the folder name back (don't forget do this before activating back wpForo) and activate back wpForo, then navigate to Forums > Tools > Antispam Tab and change keys.

Thank you very much. Follow up question. The keys I entered were v3. That did not seem to get along well with your plugin so I disabled it altogether.

Can you confirm that Google reCAPTCHA v3 is not yet supported? Or, perhaps I did something incorrect.

Yes, it's not supported. You should use the V2 built-in reCAPTCHA. Using wpForo reCAPTCHA you can secure all login/register and guest posting forms.
