  1. Note that the USE_PHPCAPTCHA_FOR_LOGIN is set to true by ConfigurationEvent in userfn.php, and that only affects the login page.
  2. Make sure you re-generated and re-uploaded all files.
  3. If you use Use route cache for production, you need to delete old route cache so the route for captcha will be used.
  4. Enable debugging and check log for errors.

I can't see anything to note.

in layout.php i stepped through and noticed:

            var recaptchaCallback = function() {
                let $ = jQuery;
                ew.initReCaptcha = function(e) {
                    let $recaptcha = $(e?.target ?? document).find(".g-recaptcha:not([data-id])");
                    if ($recaptcha[0]) {}

e = undefined

i rechecked and re-entered the api keys, deleted cache, same behaviour on local and remove servers
google package loaded in .json ( "google/recaptcha": "^1.3")

not sure what i;m missing

The code you posted shows that you are still using reCaptcha. You better delete all scripts and generate again.

resolved.... userfn.php was missing the captcha code :see_no_evil_monkey: as we don't use the app to manage userfn.php and don't regen too often.
