Google reCAPTCHA has been a go-to solution for protecting websites from spam and bots for years. However, with Google\u2019s recent decision to start charging for reCAPTCHA<\/a> usage, many website owners and developers<\/a> are looking for free, privacy-friendly alternatives.<\/p>\nLuckily, there\u2019s a great option available: Cloudflare Turnstile<\/a>, a free and user-friendly CAPTCHA alternative that enhances security without compromising user experience. In this post, we\u2019ll explore what Cloudflare Turnstile is, why it\u2019s a great replacement for reCAPTCHA, and how you can easily implement it on your WordPress site.<\/p>\nWhy Look for a Google reCAPTCHA Alternative?<\/h3>\nWhile Google reCAPTCHA has been effective in blocking automated spam and abuse, its new pricing model is a dealbreaker for many small businesses, bloggers<\/a>, and website owners. Here\u2019s why an alternative makes sense:<\/p>\n\nCost:<\/strong> With Google charging for reCAPTCHA, websites with high traffic may face unexpected expenses.<\/li>\nPrivacy concerns:<\/strong> Google\u2019s reCAPTCHA collects user data and interacts with Google\u2019s services, which raises privacy concerns.<\/li>\nUser experience:<\/strong> Many users find reCAPTCHA frustrating, especially when dealing with image-based challenges.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nIntroducing Cloudflare Turnstile: A Free, Privacy-Focused CAPTCHA<\/h3>\n<\/figure>\nCloudflare Turnstile<\/a> is a free and privacy-friendly CAPTCHA alternative designed to verify visitors without requiring interaction. Unlike reCAPTCHA, Turnstile doesn\u2019t track users across the web \u2014 and doesn\u2019t require solving puzzles.<\/strong><\/p>\nKey Benefits of Cloudflare Turnstile:<\/h4>\n\u2705 Completely free:<\/strong> No hidden fees, regardless of your website\u2019s traffic<\/a>.\u2705 No Google dependency:<\/strong> Works independently of Google services.\u2705 Privacy-friendly:<\/strong> Does not track or collect unnecessary user data.\u2705 Seamless user experience:<\/strong> Automatically detects bots without frustrating human visitors.\u2705 Easy integration:<\/strong> Works with WordPress forms, login pages, WooCommerce<\/a>, and more.<\/p>\nHere\u2019s the list of supported forms:<\/p>\nWordPress:<\/strong><\/p>\n\nLogin Form<\/li>\nRegistration Form<\/li>\nPassword Reset Form<\/li>\nComments Form<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nWooCommerce:<\/strong><\/p>\n\nCheckout<\/li>\nPay For Order<\/li>\nLogin Form<\/li>\nRegistration Form<\/li>\nPassword Reset Form<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nForm Plugins:<\/strong><\/p>\n\nWPForms<\/a><\/li>\nFluent Forms<\/li>\nContact Form 7<\/li>\nGravity Forms<\/li>\nFormidable Forms<\/li>\nForminator Forms<\/li>\nJetpack Forms<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nOther integrations:<\/strong><\/p>\n\nElementor Pro Forms<\/li>\nEasy Digital Downloads Forms<\/li>\nPaid Memberships Pro Forms<\/li>\nMailchimp for WordPress Forms<\/li>\nBuddyPress Registration Form<\/li>\nbbPress Create Topic & Reply Forms<\/li>\nMemberPress Forms<\/li>\nUltimate Member Forms<\/li>\nWP-Members Forms<\/li>\nWP User Frontend Forms<\/li>\nwpDiscuz Comments Form<\/li>\nCheckoutWC & Flux Checkout<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nThis plugin is also compatible with WordPress Multisite, and most two-factor authentication (2FA) plugins.<\/p>\n\nGet Content Delivered Straight to Your Inbox<\/h2>\nSubscribe now to receive all the latest updates, delivered directly to your inbox.<\/p>\n<\/div>\nHow To Set Up Cloudflare Turnstile on WordPress<\/h2>\nAdding Cloudflare Turnstile to your WordPress site is simple with the Simple Cloudflare Turnstile<\/a> plugin. Follow these steps to get started:<\/p>\n1. Install the Simple Cloudflare Turnstile Plugin<\/h3>\nLog in to your WordPress dashboard.Go to Plugins<\/strong> > Add New Plugin<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSearch for \u201cSimple Cloudflare Turnstile.\u201d Click Install Now<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nWhen installed, the \u201cInstall Now\u201d Button will read \u201cActivate.\u201d Click Activate<\/strong> to continue.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n2. Get Your Cloudflare API Keys<\/h3>\nVisit the Cloudflare Turnstile Dashboard<\/a> and create a free Cloudflare account if you don\u2019t have one.<\/p>\nIn the left-hand navigation, click on Turnstile<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nThen click on Add widget<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nIn the \u201cWidget name\u201d box enter a tag you prefer to identify this widget. This will allow you to set up the specific way you want this turnstile to work.<\/p>\nThen in \u201cHostname Management\u201d click + Add Hostnames<\/strong> to assign one or more domains you want to use this widget. Make sure you add the domain simply as \u201c[DOMAIN].[TOP-LEVEL DOMAIN]\u201d without \u201cwww\u201d at the beginning.<\/p>\nSo, for example:<\/p>\n\n\u201cdomain.com\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cmysite.me\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cexample.co\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nYou can then choose from three \u201cWidget Modes.\u201d This will determine how Turnstile behaves:<\/p>\n\nManaged:<\/strong> CloudFlare will decide if a visitor has to complete a \u201cchallenge\u201d of some sort to clear the captcha.\u00a0<\/li>\nNon-interactive:<\/strong> Displays a progress bar while the user is scanned and authorized.<\/li>\nInvisible:<\/strong> Will scan and authorize the user, but without the progress bar displayed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/figure>\nOnce you\u2019ve filled in your options, click Create<\/strong>.<\/p>\nCloudflare will display your \u201cSite Key\u201d and your \u201cSecret Key.\u201d<\/p>\nKeep this tab open. In the next step, you\u2019ll navigate to WordPress to copy and paste these two keys.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n3. Configure the Plugin In WordPress<\/h3>\nGo to Settings<\/strong> > Cloudflare Turnstile<\/strong> in your WordPress admin panel.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nEnter your \u201cSite Key\u201d and \u201cSecret Key\u201d from Cloudflare.<\/p>\nOnce you paste the keys, you\u2019ll receive a notice asking you to \u201ctest\u201d the setup. The system will let you know if it\u2019s correct after a few seconds.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nScroll down and choose which forms you want to have Turnstile enabled (e.g., login page, comments, WooCommerce checkout).<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSave changes and test the CAPTCHA on your site!<\/p>\nConclusion<\/h2>\nWith Google reCAPTCHA shifting to a paid model, now is the perfect time to switch to a free and privacy-friendly alternative like Cloudflare Turnstile.

Unlike reCAPTCHA, Turnstile doesn\u2019t track users across the web \u2014 and doesn\u2019t require solving puzzles.<\/strong><\/p>\nKey Benefits of Cloudflare Turnstile:<\/h4>\n\u2705 Completely free:<\/strong> No hidden fees, regardless of your website\u2019s traffic<\/a>.\u2705 No Google dependency:<\/strong> Works independently of Google services.\u2705 Privacy-friendly:<\/strong> Does not track or collect unnecessary user data.\u2705 Seamless user experience:<\/strong> Automatically detects bots without frustrating human visitors.\u2705 Easy integration:<\/strong> Works with WordPress forms, login pages, WooCommerce<\/a>, and more.<\/p>\nHere\u2019s the list of supported forms:<\/p>\nWordPress:<\/strong><\/p>\n\nLogin Form<\/li>\nRegistration Form<\/li>\nPassword Reset Form<\/li>\nComments Form<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nWooCommerce:<\/strong><\/p>\n\nCheckout<\/li>\nPay For Order<\/li>\nLogin Form<\/li>\nRegistration Form<\/li>\nPassword Reset Form<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nForm Plugins:<\/strong><\/p>\n\nWPForms<\/a><\/li>\nFluent Forms<\/li>\nContact Form 7<\/li>\nGravity Forms<\/li>\nFormidable Forms<\/li>\nForminator Forms<\/li>\nJetpack Forms<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nOther integrations:<\/strong><\/p>\n\nElementor Pro Forms<\/li>\nEasy Digital Downloads Forms<\/li>\nPaid Memberships Pro Forms<\/li>\nMailchimp for WordPress Forms<\/li>\nBuddyPress Registration Form<\/li>\nbbPress Create Topic & Reply Forms<\/li>\nMemberPress Forms<\/li>\nUltimate Member Forms<\/li>\nWP-Members Forms<\/li>\nWP User Frontend Forms<\/li>\nwpDiscuz Comments Form<\/li>\nCheckoutWC & Flux Checkout<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nThis plugin is also compatible with WordPress Multisite, and most two-factor authentication (2FA) plugins.<\/p>\n\nGet Content Delivered Straight to Your Inbox<\/h2>\nSubscribe now to receive all the latest updates, delivered directly to your inbox.<\/p>\n<\/div>\nHow To Set Up Cloudflare Turnstile on WordPress<\/h2>\nAdding Cloudflare Turnstile to your WordPress site is simple with the Simple Cloudflare Turnstile<\/a> plugin. Follow these steps to get started:<\/p>\n1. Install the Simple Cloudflare Turnstile Plugin<\/h3>\nLog in to your WordPress dashboard.Go to Plugins<\/strong> > Add New Plugin<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSearch for \u201cSimple Cloudflare Turnstile.\u201d Click Install Now<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nWhen installed, the \u201cInstall Now\u201d Button will read \u201cActivate.\u201d Click Activate<\/strong> to continue.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n2. Get Your Cloudflare API Keys<\/h3>\nVisit the Cloudflare Turnstile Dashboard<\/a> and create a free Cloudflare account if you don\u2019t have one.<\/p>\nIn the left-hand navigation, click on Turnstile<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nThen click on Add widget<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nIn the \u201cWidget name\u201d box enter a tag you prefer to identify this widget. This will allow you to set up the specific way you want this turnstile to work.<\/p>\nThen in \u201cHostname Management\u201d click + Add Hostnames<\/strong> to assign one or more domains you want to use this widget. Make sure you add the domain simply as \u201c[DOMAIN].[TOP-LEVEL DOMAIN]\u201d without \u201cwww\u201d at the beginning.<\/p>\nSo, for example:<\/p>\n\n\u201cdomain.com\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cmysite.me\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cexample.co\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nYou can then choose from three \u201cWidget Modes.\u201d This will determine how Turnstile behaves:<\/p>\n\nManaged:<\/strong> CloudFlare will decide if a visitor has to complete a \u201cchallenge\u201d of some sort to clear the captcha.\u00a0<\/li>\nNon-interactive:<\/strong> Displays a progress bar while the user is scanned and authorized.<\/li>\nInvisible:<\/strong> Will scan and authorize the user, but without the progress bar displayed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/figure>\nOnce you\u2019ve filled in your options, click Create<\/strong>.<\/p>\nCloudflare will display your \u201cSite Key\u201d and your \u201cSecret Key.\u201d<\/p>\nKeep this tab open. In the next step, you\u2019ll navigate to WordPress to copy and paste these two keys.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n3. Configure the Plugin In WordPress<\/h3>\nGo to Settings<\/strong> > Cloudflare Turnstile<\/strong> in your WordPress admin panel.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nEnter your \u201cSite Key\u201d and \u201cSecret Key\u201d from Cloudflare.<\/p>\nOnce you paste the keys, you\u2019ll receive a notice asking you to \u201ctest\u201d the setup. The system will let you know if it\u2019s correct after a few seconds.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nScroll down and choose which forms you want to have Turnstile enabled (e.g., login page, comments, WooCommerce checkout).<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSave changes and test the CAPTCHA on your site!<\/p>\nConclusion<\/h2>\nWith Google reCAPTCHA shifting to a paid model, now is the perfect time to switch to a free and privacy-friendly alternative like Cloudflare Turnstile.

Follow these steps to get started:<\/p>\n1. Install the Simple Cloudflare Turnstile Plugin<\/h3>\nLog in to your WordPress dashboard.Go to Plugins<\/strong> > Add New Plugin<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSearch for \u201cSimple Cloudflare Turnstile.\u201d Click Install Now<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nWhen installed, the \u201cInstall Now\u201d Button will read \u201cActivate.\u201d Click Activate<\/strong> to continue.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n2. Get Your Cloudflare API Keys<\/h3>\nVisit the Cloudflare Turnstile Dashboard<\/a> and create a free Cloudflare account if you don\u2019t have one.<\/p>\nIn the left-hand navigation, click on Turnstile<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nThen click on Add widget<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nIn the \u201cWidget name\u201d box enter a tag you prefer to identify this widget. This will allow you to set up the specific way you want this turnstile to work.<\/p>\nThen in \u201cHostname Management\u201d click + Add Hostnames<\/strong> to assign one or more domains you want to use this widget. Make sure you add the domain simply as \u201c[DOMAIN].[TOP-LEVEL DOMAIN]\u201d without \u201cwww\u201d at the beginning.<\/p>\nSo, for example:<\/p>\n\n\u201cdomain.com\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cmysite.me\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cexample.co\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nYou can then choose from three \u201cWidget Modes.\u201d This will determine how Turnstile behaves:<\/p>\n\nManaged:<\/strong> CloudFlare will decide if a visitor has to complete a \u201cchallenge\u201d of some sort to clear the captcha.\u00a0<\/li>\nNon-interactive:<\/strong> Displays a progress bar while the user is scanned and authorized.<\/li>\nInvisible:<\/strong> Will scan and authorize the user, but without the progress bar displayed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/figure>\nOnce you\u2019ve filled in your options, click Create<\/strong>.<\/p>\nCloudflare will display your \u201cSite Key\u201d and your \u201cSecret Key.\u201d<\/p>\nKeep this tab open. In the next step, you\u2019ll navigate to WordPress to copy and paste these two keys.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n3. Configure the Plugin In WordPress<\/h3>\nGo to Settings<\/strong> > Cloudflare Turnstile<\/strong> in your WordPress admin panel.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nEnter your \u201cSite Key\u201d and \u201cSecret Key\u201d from Cloudflare.<\/p>\nOnce you paste the keys, you\u2019ll receive a notice asking you to \u201ctest\u201d the setup. The system will let you know if it\u2019s correct after a few seconds.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nScroll down and choose which forms you want to have Turnstile enabled (e.g., login page, comments, WooCommerce checkout).<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSave changes and test the CAPTCHA on your site!<\/p>\nConclusion<\/h2>\nWith Google reCAPTCHA shifting to a paid model, now is the perfect time to switch to a free and privacy-friendly alternative like Cloudflare Turnstile.

Follow these steps to get started:<\/p>\n1. Install the Simple Cloudflare Turnstile Plugin<\/h3>\nLog in to your WordPress dashboard.Go to Plugins<\/strong> > Add New Plugin<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSearch for \u201cSimple Cloudflare Turnstile.\u201d Click Install Now<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nWhen installed, the \u201cInstall Now\u201d Button will read \u201cActivate.\u201d Click Activate<\/strong> to continue.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n2. Get Your Cloudflare API Keys<\/h3>\nVisit the Cloudflare Turnstile Dashboard<\/a> and create a free Cloudflare account if you don\u2019t have one.<\/p>\nIn the left-hand navigation, click on Turnstile<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nThen click on Add widget<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nIn the \u201cWidget name\u201d box enter a tag you prefer to identify this widget. This will allow you to set up the specific way you want this turnstile to work.<\/p>\nThen in \u201cHostname Management\u201d click + Add Hostnames<\/strong> to assign one or more domains you want to use this widget. Make sure you add the domain simply as \u201c[DOMAIN].[TOP-LEVEL DOMAIN]\u201d without \u201cwww\u201d at the beginning.<\/p>\nSo, for example:<\/p>\n\n\u201cdomain.com\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cmysite.me\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cexample.co\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nYou can then choose from three \u201cWidget Modes.\u201d This will determine how Turnstile behaves:<\/p>\n\nManaged:<\/strong> CloudFlare will decide if a visitor has to complete a \u201cchallenge\u201d of some sort to clear the captcha.\u00a0<\/li>\nNon-interactive:<\/strong> Displays a progress bar while the user is scanned and authorized.<\/li>\nInvisible:<\/strong> Will scan and authorize the user, but without the progress bar displayed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/figure>\nOnce you\u2019ve filled in your options, click Create<\/strong>.<\/p>\nCloudflare will display your \u201cSite Key\u201d and your \u201cSecret Key.\u201d<\/p>\nKeep this tab open. In the next step, you\u2019ll navigate to WordPress to copy and paste these two keys.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n3. Configure the Plugin In WordPress<\/h3>\nGo to Settings<\/strong> > Cloudflare Turnstile<\/strong> in your WordPress admin panel.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nEnter your \u201cSite Key\u201d and \u201cSecret Key\u201d from Cloudflare.<\/p>\nOnce you paste the keys, you\u2019ll receive a notice asking you to \u201ctest\u201d the setup. The system will let you know if it\u2019s correct after a few seconds.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nScroll down and choose which forms you want to have Turnstile enabled (e.g., login page, comments, WooCommerce checkout).<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSave changes and test the CAPTCHA on your site!<\/p>\nConclusion<\/h2>\nWith Google reCAPTCHA shifting to a paid model, now is the perfect time to switch to a free and privacy-friendly alternative like Cloudflare Turnstile.

Follow these steps to get started:<\/p>\n1. Install the Simple Cloudflare Turnstile Plugin<\/h3>\nLog in to your WordPress dashboard.Go to Plugins<\/strong> > Add New Plugin<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSearch for \u201cSimple Cloudflare Turnstile.\u201d Click Install Now<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nWhen installed, the \u201cInstall Now\u201d Button will read \u201cActivate.\u201d Click Activate<\/strong> to continue.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n2. Get Your Cloudflare API Keys<\/h3>\nVisit the Cloudflare Turnstile Dashboard<\/a> and create a free Cloudflare account if you don\u2019t have one.<\/p>\nIn the left-hand navigation, click on Turnstile<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nThen click on Add widget<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nIn the \u201cWidget name\u201d box enter a tag you prefer to identify this widget. This will allow you to set up the specific way you want this turnstile to work.<\/p>\nThen in \u201cHostname Management\u201d click + Add Hostnames<\/strong> to assign one or more domains you want to use this widget. Make sure you add the domain simply as \u201c[DOMAIN].[TOP-LEVEL DOMAIN]\u201d without \u201cwww\u201d at the beginning.<\/p>\nSo, for example:<\/p>\n\n\u201cdomain.com\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cmysite.me\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cexample.co\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nYou can then choose from three \u201cWidget Modes.\u201d This will determine how Turnstile behaves:<\/p>\n\nManaged:<\/strong> CloudFlare will decide if a visitor has to complete a \u201cchallenge\u201d of some sort to clear the captcha.\u00a0<\/li>\nNon-interactive:<\/strong> Displays a progress bar while the user is scanned and authorized.<\/li>\nInvisible:<\/strong> Will scan and authorize the user, but without the progress bar displayed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/figure>\nOnce you\u2019ve filled in your options, click Create<\/strong>.<\/p>\nCloudflare will display your \u201cSite Key\u201d and your \u201cSecret Key.\u201d<\/p>\nKeep this tab open. In the next step, you\u2019ll navigate to WordPress to copy and paste these two keys.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n3. Configure the Plugin In WordPress<\/h3>\nGo to Settings<\/strong> > Cloudflare Turnstile<\/strong> in your WordPress admin panel.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nEnter your \u201cSite Key\u201d and \u201cSecret Key\u201d from Cloudflare.<\/p>\nOnce you paste the keys, you\u2019ll receive a notice asking you to \u201ctest\u201d the setup. The system will let you know if it\u2019s correct after a few seconds.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nScroll down and choose which forms you want to have Turnstile enabled (e.g., login page, comments, WooCommerce checkout).<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSave changes and test the CAPTCHA on your site!<\/p>\nConclusion<\/h2>\nWith Google reCAPTCHA shifting to a paid model, now is the perfect time to switch to a free and privacy-friendly alternative like Cloudflare Turnstile.

Follow these steps to get started:<\/p>\n1. Install the Simple Cloudflare Turnstile Plugin<\/h3>\nLog in to your WordPress dashboard.Go to Plugins<\/strong> > Add New Plugin<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSearch for \u201cSimple Cloudflare Turnstile.\u201d Click Install Now<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nWhen installed, the \u201cInstall Now\u201d Button will read \u201cActivate.\u201d Click Activate<\/strong> to continue.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n2. Get Your Cloudflare API Keys<\/h3>\nVisit the Cloudflare Turnstile Dashboard<\/a> and create a free Cloudflare account if you don\u2019t have one.<\/p>\nIn the left-hand navigation, click on Turnstile<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nThen click on Add widget<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nIn the \u201cWidget name\u201d box enter a tag you prefer to identify this widget. This will allow you to set up the specific way you want this turnstile to work.<\/p>\nThen in \u201cHostname Management\u201d click + Add Hostnames<\/strong> to assign one or more domains you want to use this widget. Make sure you add the domain simply as \u201c[DOMAIN].[TOP-LEVEL DOMAIN]\u201d without \u201cwww\u201d at the beginning.<\/p>\nSo, for example:<\/p>\n\n\u201cdomain.com\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cmysite.me\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cexample.co\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nYou can then choose from three \u201cWidget Modes.\u201d This will determine how Turnstile behaves:<\/p>\n\nManaged:<\/strong> CloudFlare will decide if a visitor has to complete a \u201cchallenge\u201d of some sort to clear the captcha.\u00a0<\/li>\nNon-interactive:<\/strong> Displays a progress bar while the user is scanned and authorized.<\/li>\nInvisible:<\/strong> Will scan and authorize the user, but without the progress bar displayed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/figure>\nOnce you\u2019ve filled in your options, click Create<\/strong>.<\/p>\nCloudflare will display your \u201cSite Key\u201d and your \u201cSecret Key.\u201d<\/p>\nKeep this tab open. In the next step, you\u2019ll navigate to WordPress to copy and paste these two keys.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n3. Configure the Plugin In WordPress<\/h3>\nGo to Settings<\/strong> > Cloudflare Turnstile<\/strong> in your WordPress admin panel.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nEnter your \u201cSite Key\u201d and \u201cSecret Key\u201d from Cloudflare.<\/p>\nOnce you paste the keys, you\u2019ll receive a notice asking you to \u201ctest\u201d the setup. The system will let you know if it\u2019s correct after a few seconds.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nScroll down and choose which forms you want to have Turnstile enabled (e.g., login page, comments, WooCommerce checkout).<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSave changes and test the CAPTCHA on your site!<\/p>\nConclusion<\/h2>\nWith Google reCAPTCHA shifting to a paid model, now is the perfect time to switch to a free and privacy-friendly alternative like Cloudflare Turnstile.

Configure the Plugin In WordPress<\/h3>\nGo to Settings<\/strong> > Cloudflare Turnstile<\/strong> in your WordPress admin panel.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nEnter your \u201cSite Key\u201d and \u201cSecret Key\u201d from Cloudflare.<\/p>\nOnce you paste the keys, you\u2019ll receive a notice asking you to \u201ctest\u201d the setup. The system will let you know if it\u2019s correct after a few seconds.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nScroll down and choose which forms you want to have Turnstile enabled (e.g., login page, comments, WooCommerce checkout).<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSave changes and test the CAPTCHA on your site!<\/p>\nConclusion<\/h2>\nWith Google reCAPTCHA shifting to a paid model, now is the perfect time to switch to a free and privacy-friendly alternative like Cloudflare Turnstile.

The system will let you know if it\u2019s correct after a few seconds.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nScroll down and choose which forms you want to have Turnstile enabled (e.g., login page, comments, WooCommerce checkout).<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSave changes and test the CAPTCHA on your site!<\/p>\nConclusion<\/h2>\nWith Google reCAPTCHA shifting to a paid model, now is the perfect time to switch to a free and privacy-friendly alternative like Cloudflare Turnstile.

Configure the Plugin In WordPress<\/h3>\nGo to Settings<\/strong> > Cloudflare Turnstile<\/strong> in your WordPress admin panel.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nEnter your \u201cSite Key\u201d and \u201cSecret Key\u201d from Cloudflare.<\/p>\nOnce you paste the keys, you\u2019ll receive a notice asking you to \u201ctest\u201d the setup. The system will let you know if it\u2019s correct after a few seconds.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nScroll down and choose which forms you want to have Turnstile enabled (e.g., login page, comments, WooCommerce checkout).<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSave changes and test the CAPTCHA on your site!<\/p>\nConclusion<\/h2>\nWith Google reCAPTCHA shifting to a paid model, now is the perfect time to switch to a free and privacy-friendly alternative like Cloudflare Turnstile.

Visit the Cloudflare Turnstile Dashboard<\/a> and create a free Cloudflare account if you don\u2019t have one.<\/p>\nIn the left-hand navigation, click on Turnstile<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nThen click on Add widget<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nIn the \u201cWidget name\u201d box enter a tag you prefer to identify this widget. This will allow you to set up the specific way you want this turnstile to work.<\/p>\nThen in \u201cHostname Management\u201d click + Add Hostnames<\/strong> to assign one or more domains you want to use this widget. Make sure you add the domain simply as \u201c[DOMAIN].[TOP-LEVEL DOMAIN]\u201d without \u201cwww\u201d at the beginning.<\/p>\nSo, for example:<\/p>\n\n\u201cdomain.com\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cmysite.me\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cexample.co\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nYou can then choose from three \u201cWidget Modes.\u201d This will determine how Turnstile behaves:<\/p>\n\nManaged:<\/strong> CloudFlare will decide if a visitor has to complete a \u201cchallenge\u201d of some sort to clear the captcha.\u00a0<\/li>\nNon-interactive:<\/strong> Displays a progress bar while the user is scanned and authorized.<\/li>\nInvisible:<\/strong> Will scan and authorize the user, but without the progress bar displayed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/figure>\nOnce you\u2019ve filled in your options, click Create<\/strong>.<\/p>\nCloudflare will display your \u201cSite Key\u201d and your \u201cSecret Key.\u201d<\/p>\nKeep this tab open. In the next step, you\u2019ll navigate to WordPress to copy and paste these two keys.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n3. Configure the Plugin In WordPress<\/h3>\nGo to Settings<\/strong> > Cloudflare Turnstile<\/strong> in your WordPress admin panel.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nEnter your \u201cSite Key\u201d and \u201cSecret Key\u201d from Cloudflare.<\/p>\nOnce you paste the keys, you\u2019ll receive a notice asking you to \u201ctest\u201d the setup. The system will let you know if it\u2019s correct after a few seconds.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nScroll down and choose which forms you want to have Turnstile enabled (e.g., login page, comments, WooCommerce checkout).<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSave changes and test the CAPTCHA on your site!<\/p>\nConclusion<\/h2>\nWith Google reCAPTCHA shifting to a paid model, now is the perfect time to switch to a free and privacy-friendly alternative like Cloudflare Turnstile.

In the left-hand navigation, click on Turnstile<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nThen click on Add widget<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nIn the \u201cWidget name\u201d box enter a tag you prefer to identify this widget. This will allow you to set up the specific way you want this turnstile to work.<\/p>\nThen in \u201cHostname Management\u201d click + Add Hostnames<\/strong> to assign one or more domains you want to use this widget. Make sure you add the domain simply as \u201c[DOMAIN].[TOP-LEVEL DOMAIN]\u201d without \u201cwww\u201d at the beginning.<\/p>\nSo, for example:<\/p>\n\n\u201cdomain.com\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cmysite.me\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cexample.co\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nYou can then choose from three \u201cWidget Modes.\u201d This will determine how Turnstile behaves:<\/p>\n\nManaged:<\/strong> CloudFlare will decide if a visitor has to complete a \u201cchallenge\u201d of some sort to clear the captcha.\u00a0<\/li>\nNon-interactive:<\/strong> Displays a progress bar while the user is scanned and authorized.<\/li>\nInvisible:<\/strong> Will scan and authorize the user, but without the progress bar displayed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/figure>\nOnce you\u2019ve filled in your options, click Create<\/strong>.<\/p>\nCloudflare will display your \u201cSite Key\u201d and your \u201cSecret Key.\u201d<\/p>\nKeep this tab open. In the next step, you\u2019ll navigate to WordPress to copy and paste these two keys.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n3. Configure the Plugin In WordPress<\/h3>\nGo to Settings<\/strong> > Cloudflare Turnstile<\/strong> in your WordPress admin panel.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nEnter your \u201cSite Key\u201d and \u201cSecret Key\u201d from Cloudflare.<\/p>\nOnce you paste the keys, you\u2019ll receive a notice asking you to \u201ctest\u201d the setup. The system will let you know if it\u2019s correct after a few seconds.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nScroll down and choose which forms you want to have Turnstile enabled (e.g., login page, comments, WooCommerce checkout).<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSave changes and test the CAPTCHA on your site!<\/p>\nConclusion<\/h2>\nWith Google reCAPTCHA shifting to a paid model, now is the perfect time to switch to a free and privacy-friendly alternative like Cloudflare Turnstile.

Then click on Add widget<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nIn the \u201cWidget name\u201d box enter a tag you prefer to identify this widget. This will allow you to set up the specific way you want this turnstile to work.<\/p>\nThen in \u201cHostname Management\u201d click + Add Hostnames<\/strong> to assign one or more domains you want to use this widget. Make sure you add the domain simply as \u201c[DOMAIN].[TOP-LEVEL DOMAIN]\u201d without \u201cwww\u201d at the beginning.<\/p>\nSo, for example:<\/p>\n\n\u201cdomain.com\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cmysite.me\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cexample.co\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nYou can then choose from three \u201cWidget Modes.\u201d This will determine how Turnstile behaves:<\/p>\n\nManaged:<\/strong> CloudFlare will decide if a visitor has to complete a \u201cchallenge\u201d of some sort to clear the captcha.\u00a0<\/li>\nNon-interactive:<\/strong> Displays a progress bar while the user is scanned and authorized.<\/li>\nInvisible:<\/strong> Will scan and authorize the user, but without the progress bar displayed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/figure>\nOnce you\u2019ve filled in your options, click Create<\/strong>.<\/p>\nCloudflare will display your \u201cSite Key\u201d and your \u201cSecret Key.\u201d<\/p>\nKeep this tab open. In the next step, you\u2019ll navigate to WordPress to copy and paste these two keys.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n3. Configure the Plugin In WordPress<\/h3>\nGo to Settings<\/strong> > Cloudflare Turnstile<\/strong> in your WordPress admin panel.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nEnter your \u201cSite Key\u201d and \u201cSecret Key\u201d from Cloudflare.<\/p>\nOnce you paste the keys, you\u2019ll receive a notice asking you to \u201ctest\u201d the setup. The system will let you know if it\u2019s correct after a few seconds.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nScroll down and choose which forms you want to have Turnstile enabled (e.g., login page, comments, WooCommerce checkout).<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSave changes and test the CAPTCHA on your site!<\/p>\nConclusion<\/h2>\nWith Google reCAPTCHA shifting to a paid model, now is the perfect time to switch to a free and privacy-friendly alternative like Cloudflare Turnstile.

In the \u201cWidget name\u201d box enter a tag you prefer to identify this widget. This will allow you to set up the specific way you want this turnstile to work.<\/p>\n
Then in \u201cHostname Management\u201d click + Add Hostnames<\/strong> to assign one or more domains you want to use this widget. Make sure you add the domain simply as \u201c[DOMAIN].[TOP-LEVEL DOMAIN]\u201d without \u201cwww\u201d at the beginning.<\/p>\nSo, for example:<\/p>\n\n\u201cdomain.com\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cmysite.me\u201d<\/li>\n\u201cexample.co\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nYou can then choose from three \u201cWidget Modes.\u201d This will determine how Turnstile behaves:<\/p>\n\nManaged:<\/strong> CloudFlare will decide if a visitor has to complete a \u201cchallenge\u201d of some sort to clear the captcha.\u00a0<\/li>\nNon-interactive:<\/strong> Displays a progress bar while the user is scanned and authorized.<\/li>\nInvisible:<\/strong> Will scan and authorize the user, but without the progress bar displayed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/figure>\nOnce you\u2019ve filled in your options, click Create<\/strong>.<\/p>\nCloudflare will display your \u201cSite Key\u201d and your \u201cSecret Key.\u201d<\/p>\nKeep this tab open. In the next step, you\u2019ll navigate to WordPress to copy and paste these two keys.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n3. Configure the Plugin In WordPress<\/h3>\nGo to Settings<\/strong> > Cloudflare Turnstile<\/strong> in your WordPress admin panel.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nEnter your \u201cSite Key\u201d and \u201cSecret Key\u201d from Cloudflare.<\/p>\nOnce you paste the keys, you\u2019ll receive a notice asking you to \u201ctest\u201d the setup. The system will let you know if it\u2019s correct after a few seconds.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nScroll down and choose which forms you want to have Turnstile enabled (e.g., login page, comments, WooCommerce checkout).<\/p>\n<\/figure>\nSave changes and test the CAPTCHA on your site!<\/p>\nConclusion<\/h2>\nWith Google reCAPTCHA shifting to a paid model, now is the perfect time to switch to a free and privacy-friendly alternative like Cloudflare Turnstile.
