About WPForms Custom Captcha Addon 1.3.2

WPForms Custom Captcha Addon is an add-on for the WPForms form plugin. From its name, it adds a custom captcha field to your forms, such as a simple question or maths puzzle, as an alternative to image or checkbox captchas from outside services.

The listing gives no feature details and doesn't say which captcha styles it offers. The file on record is version 1.3.2 from September 2021. It is an add-on, so WPForms must be installed and active first. Check the documentation in the package, and test on a staging site.

Requirements

WPForms

Key features

Custom captcha field: Adds a captcha option inside the WPForms form builder.
Spam reduction: Captchas make it harder for bots to submit your forms.
WPForms add-on: Works inside WPForms rather than as a standalone form plugin.
Small package: The file is about 143 kilobytes, so it does one job.

Is it right for you?

A good fit for

WPForms users who want a captcha without using an outside service
Sites that get contact-form spam

Look elsewhere if

Sites that don't use WPForms
Forms that need an invisible check, since a custom captcha makes the visitor answer something

How to install WPForms Custom Captcha Addon 1.3.2

1
Download the file
Open My Account → Downloads and download the product. If the archive contains several zips (documentation, child theme, licensing files), you need the one named after the product.
2
Upload it to WordPress
In your dashboard go to Plugins → Add New Plugin → Upload Plugin and choose the zip.
3
Install and activate
Click Install Now, then Activate. If an older or free copy is already installed, WordPress offers to replace it with the uploaded version.

Notes for this product

Install and activate WPForms first. The listing doesn't say whether the Lite edition is enough, so check the documentation.

Setup: using WPForms Custom Captcha Addon 1.3.2

Confirm WPForms is active. The add-on does nothing without its parent plugin.
Edit a form. Open a form in the WPForms builder and look for the captcha field among the available fields.
Add and configure the captcha. Drop the field into the form and set its options as the documentation describes.
Test submissions. Submit the form with a right and a wrong answer, and confirm spam is rejected and real entries still arrive.

Common problems and fixes

“The link you followed has expired.” when uploading

Why it happens: The zip is larger than your server's PHP upload limit (upload_max_filesize / post_max_size).
How to fix it: Raise the upload limit in your hosting control panel, or unzip the file and upload the folder to wp-content/plugins with your host's file manager or SFTP.

“The package could not be installed. No valid plugins were found.”

Why it happens: The uploaded zip is a bundle (or a theme), not the plugin itself.
How to fix it: Unzip the download once and upload the inner zip named after the plugin.

“Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.”

Why it happens: Usually a PHP version older than the plugin needs, or a second copy of the same plugin (for example the free version) still active.
How to fix it: Check your PHP version under Tools → Site Health → Info, deactivate any other copy of the plugin, and enable WP_DEBUG_LOG to see the exact error.

Licence or “updates unavailable” notices

Why it happens: The developer's licence key isn't included. Features that call the developer's servers (template libraries, cloud APIs, automatic updates) need it.
How to fix it: Everything that runs locally works without it. For a newer file, use Request an update from your account.
