The required shortcode is [captcha* captcha-answer]. This tag ensures that the user completes the CAPTCHA before submitting the form.
Can I use the shortcode for Google reCAPTCHA or Turnstile?
Yes! The same [captcha* captcha-answer] shortcode works for all types. The plugin automatically renders the correct challenge (reCAPTCHA, Turnstile, or Built-in) based on your settings.
