ReCAPTCHA issue with subscription form on website

I dug through the forums and couldn't find a particular solution for this, so here goes.

On a ton of sites we build, we implement a subscription form in our footers as a common setup - unless specifically asked not to which doesn't happen often. With implementing MailWizz now, we have created a webhook in our subscription form (just using standard elementor form builder) that connects to our own instance of n8n then to MailWizz. If we have reCAPTCHA enabled for the subscription list, it fails every time someone tries to subscribe through the webhook connected to n8n then MailWizz. If we disable reCAPTCHA on the list, it subscribes perfectly fine.

Any ideas on a workaround as we want to make sure if someone subscribes to our list via the standard subscription page in MailWizz we still have reCAPTCHA enabled, otherwise we get a ton of spam subscriptions. We used to get a lot of bogus customer signups until we enabled reCAPTCHA as well so just trying to figure out a solution.

I also downloaded the MailWizz Newsletter Box that twisted1919 mentioned in another thread, but with utilizing our builder it's not just a drag and drop or shortcode implementation.

Also, not looking for discussion about Elementor here...it's just what has been used for a long time :)
 
You could look into using the API and have some custom page processing the subscription before, then when all is fine, send it to MailWizz via API.

Hi,

Which form plugin are you using? it will have hook functionality that you can use to post the data into the mailwizz system by updating the WP functions file.

Am currently just using the elementor form and the webhook functionality to flow through our instance of n8n then to mailwizz. I have access to a number of other form builders, such as gravity, but it's a solution that's worked for a long time. We are moving everything away from mailchimp to mailwizz and it's just the one issue we've encountered.
