Description

The Captcha addon adds custom questions and random mathematical operations to WPForms forms, blocking automated bot submissions without relying on external services such as Google reCAPTCHA. It is designed for those who maintain contact, quote request, or registration forms in WordPress and need an extra layer of anti-spam protection that requires no API key or configuration in a third-party dashboard, while keeping the completion process simple for human visitors.

Key Captcha Features

  • Question-and-answer Captcha
    Create your own questions with valid answers that visitors must enter correctly to submit the form.
  • Random mathematical Captcha
    Generates addition, subtraction, or multiplication operations that are refreshed each time the form loads.
  • Native field in the visual editor
    Appears as a Captcha field among the drag-and-drop options in the WPForms builder.
  • Question bank with random selection
    Allows you to create multiple questions and display a different one each time the form is accessed.
  • Local validation without an external API
    Processes verification within WordPress itself, without a provider key or registration with a third-party service.

Benefits of Captcha

  • Immediate spam reduction
    Stops automated bot submissions on contact, quote request, and lead registration forms.
  • Data privacy preserved
    Keeps visitor interactions within the website without sending requests to Google servers.
  • Setup in just a few minutes
    Eliminates the need to generate an API key or complete an additional step in an external dashboard before getting started.
  • Frictionless completion
    Replaces confusing checkboxes with short, direct questions that humans can answer in seconds.

Who Is Captcha Recommended For?

  • Those who operate websites with contact forms and receive automated bot submissions every day.
  • Those who avoid using Google services in forms due to privacy or compliance concerns.
  • Those who already use WPForms and want to add an anti-spam layer without installing an external service.

How to Download Captcha

Captcha is available for download here at Ultrapack. After receiving the .zip file, go to Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin in the WordPress dashboard, select the file, and activate it. The Captcha field will then appear among the field types available in the WPForms form editor.

For lead capture, customer service, or quote request workflows, Captcha works as a lightweight filter against automated submissions without compromising the human visitor’s time. Unlike reCAPTCHA, it requires no configuration in external dashboards and keeps data within WordPress itself, making it well suited to scenarios where the privacy of contact forms is a priority.
