Captcha conditional by page

Jerry Beach asked on August 19, 2014 21:36

We have one form that is used on multiple pages. On one page, only, we are getting spam. In order to keep it easy for visitors, I wanted to see if we can have a captcha that is only used on the single page that is receiving spam. I see how to have the captcha visible only on that page but I can't see any way to have the hidden captcha not cause a validation error on all the other pages. Is there any way to accomplish this? Perhaps via an alternative form? Looks like the captcha, by its very nature, will cause an error in all cases.

You can create an alternative form that will allow a captcha to be shown. Also, you can create the alternate form, then add the field, so it won't be added to the database. The captcha field will only be used for validation and submission of the form. Should work fine, so on your one location where you want to use it, just select the alternative form that you created and all should be well.

Like Josh stated use the alternative form although you will need to make the the form field allows nulls in the field setup.
