Unstable reCapture implementation - stop spam registrations

Experience Level: Entry We are looking for an experienced WordPress developer to help us resolve ongoing spam registration and issues on our website.

The Problem • Our site (running the Homey theme) is receiving a high volume of fake email registrations. • We attempted to use Google re via the theme’s built-in option. • re v3: Not compatible with the theme. • re v2 (Checkbox “I’m not a robot”): Works initially, but soon stops loading for most users, giving the error: “re failed: the response parameter is missing.” • When re is disabled, the site is flooded with spam accounts.

What We Need • Diagnose and fix the issue with re not loading. • Implement a reliable anti-spam solution (re v2, v3, or alternative). • Ensure real users can and register smoothly, while blocking spam bots. • Recommend and set up any additional security measures if required.

Requirements • Strong experience with WordPress, re, and spam protection. • Familiarity with the Homey theme is a plus. • Ability to troubleshoot theme/plugin conflicts. • Clear communication and timely delivery.

Deliverables • Stable re (or equivalent) implementation that works consistently. • No spam registrations while allowing genuine users access. • Brief documentation of what was changed/fixed.
