If I want to change from the Google recaptcha to the hcaptcha do I just follow the simple steps or is there a deactivation step I need to take before I hop to the next
There is an option to disable recaptcha in our options themselves. If you run into any issues or have any questions please reach out to us using our contact form below:

I've heard that every plugin you install slows your website down. Are there any other methods without having (yet another) plugin?
Poorly coded plugins slow down your site, most plugins would have a minimal effect, the same as if you manually coded their action. For more on how many plugins to install, you would want to take a look at this article from WPBeginner:
www.wpbeginner.com/opinion/how-many-wordpress-plugins-should-you-install-on-your-site/
thank you!
You're welcome!
Hi, can you help me?
How do I connect email to WPforms so I get notifications when someone fills out the form?
You would want to set up form notifications following our guide below:
wpforms.com/docs/setup-form-notification-wpforms/
We would also recommend setting up SMTP to ensure your emails are delivered using our article below:
wpforms.com/docs/how-to-set-up-smtp-using-the-wp-mail-smtp-plugin/
Which is the best between hCaptcha and reCaptcha
That would be a personal preference question at the moment.
where is the link for reCaptcha???
It would depend on what link you mean, if you reach out to us using our contact form below we should be able to assist:

Problem is when a new site is launched and uses wp form you get some 5-10 emails a day from the "best SEO" wanting to provide a service. So basically human but pretty annoying
That is less from us directly and more for people who scrape new website registrations and sadly there is only so much that can be done about manual messages that you don't want to receive
I too get a lot of spam from my Wp form. I’m currently using v3. Will it help if I use v2?
Not much use to me. How do I stop profanity or russian script?
Please reach out to us using our contact form below and elaborate on what you mean:

My License Key is already filled in (*****************) but when I click 'Verify Key' it sends me to WPForms website to upgrade. Is this for people who have WPForms Premium?
You should still be able to use the CAPTCHA, please reach out to us using our contact form below for us to take a look and assist:
