Hi @percysgrowroom

reCAPTCHA is broken for Windows users

Google confirmed that this was mitigated, this bug as fixed.

Should also work for you again 😉

wpForo does not work with V3 as far as I know. You could disable JS minify completely in Litespeed or start a support topic at the Litespeed plugin support page? ( https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/litespeed-cache/ )

@verek That hasnt worked either lol

I was thinking, could I use V3 captcha instead of 2 so there isnt a box to click?

Also, instead of an URL exclude try a keyword like wpforo or sign-up or wpforo-register in JS exclude & defer JS exclude in Litespeed

@percysgrowroom

Have you got any JS and CSS combining going on in Litespeed Cache?

@verek I did this but got a warning about the forum not being protected from spam so put it back on again.....

Yeah, not a fan of Litespeed.

Rather than lose new signups I would turn reCAPTCHA off for wpForo. The security reCAPTCHA supposedly adds is negligible anyway.

@verek Yes mate, it seems cache related. I use LightSpeed cache. When i deactivate it, the captcha loads fine.....

I have tried excluding that url from the optimisation, but it is still causing problems. I am not sure what i need ot do to stop this from happening. Frustrating!
