To add Google reCAPTCHA to your PrestaShop website, you can follow these general steps. Please note that the exact steps may vary based on the PrestaShop version and theme you’re using. Make sure to back up your website before making any changes.
Here’s a basic guide:
- Get Google reCAPTCHA API keys:
- Go to the Google reCAPTCHA website and sign in with your Google account.
- Click on “Admin Console” and create a new site.
- Choose the reCAPTCHA v2 option (I’m not a robot).
- Select the “I’m not a robot Checkbox” and fill in the required fields.
- Accept the reCAPTCHA Terms of Service and click the “Submit” button.
- Once registered, you’ll get the Site Key and Secret Key.
- Enable reCAPTCHA in PrestaShop:
- Log in to your PrestaShop admin panel.
- Navigate to “Advanced Parameters” > “Security”.
- Look for the “reCAPTCHA” section.
- Configure reCAPTCHA in PrestaShop:
- Enter the Site Key and Secret Key you obtained from the reCAPTCHA website.
- Choose the reCAPTCHA version you are using (v2).
- Set the position where you want the reCAPTCHA to appear (e.g., login form, contact form).
- Save the changes.
- Test the reCAPTCHA:
- Go to the front end of your website and test the forms where you’ve enabled reCAPTCHA.
- Make sure the reCAPTCHA widget appears and functions correctly.
- Clear Cache:
- After making changes, it’s a good practice to clear your PrestaShop cache. You can do this in the “Advanced Parameters” > “Performance” section.
- Additional Considerations:
- Ensure your theme supports reCAPTCHA. If not, you may need to integrate it manually into the theme files.
- Double-check the compatibility with your PrestaShop version.
Please consult the official PrestaShop documentation or the documentation provided by your theme for any theme-specific instructions. If you encounter any issues, you may need to seek assistance from the PrestaShop community or your theme’s support.
