Custom Themes and Google reCAPTCHA

By default, custom themes do not support Google reCAPTCHA out of the box. However, as a CMS platform, we strive to make it simple and accessible for everyone to create a website. To that end, we've made integrating Google reCAPTCHA into custom themes easy and straightforward.

Adding Google reCAPTCHA to Custom Themes​

To enable Google reCAPTCHA in your custom theme, include the following code in the <head> tag of your base.html file:

{% if setting.integration.google.captcha_enabled and setting.integration.google.captcha_site_key != "" %}
    <script src="https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js?render={{ setting.integration.google.captcha_site_key }}"
            async defer></script>
    <script>
        const googleReCaptchaSiteKey = '{{ setting.integration.google.captcha_site_key }}'
    </script>
{% endif %}
