Hi there,

For a WordPress website, I would recommend using a plugin to do that.

For example, I could suggest this plugin here:

https://wordpress.org/plugins/google-captcha/

You can install the plugin by following these steps here:

  • Upload the google-captcha folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory.
  • Activate the plugin via the Plugins menu in WordPress.
  • Plugin settings are located in reCaptcha menu.
  • Create a form in post and insert the shortcode [bws_google_captcha] into the form.

Hope that this helps! Regards, Bobby
