So I spent half the day trying to resolve a “spam filter” issue with Gravity Forms (GF) with the Invisible ReCaptcha (IR) plugin on my client’s WordPress website. For some strange reason, the form just stopped capturing visitor (and admin test) entries, and no notifications were being received for follow up.
After connecting with GF support, I was instructed to “deactivate Akismet” (was already deactivated so I deleted it entirely), upgrade GF to 2.2.3.16 (latest release) and check the log files, then perform a theme/plugin conflict test. Down the line 10 plugins later, I deactivated IR, ran a test submission and…..started seeing new form data! The confusing thing here is, I’m running GF and IR together on my company’s website without any related issues.
Anyone with a similar experience with Gravity Forms? Please share your “pain points” and any fixes.
