Title: ask a question doesn't work, when recaptcha is enabled
Post by: patbe60 on September 04, 2025, 12:24:43 PM
When recaptcha in "Recommend a product, ask questions " is enabled, the form "ask a question" can't be sent. Nothing happens when clicking on send.
No problem when captcha is disabled.

VM 4.4.8 11111
Joomla 5.3.3

EDIT: It doesn't also not work with the form "Recommend to a friend". Same problem here.

Update to VM 4.4.10 and see if that fixes your issue.

What captcha plugin do you use?
Does the captcha work on the default contact form?
Have you tried a different captcha plugin? (I use Aimy Captcha-Less Form Guard or HashCash myself)

The Update doesn't solve the problem.
I'm sing Google Recaptcha.
Works fine on the default contact form and the VM registration form.

Not sure if this is related but I found a strange "bug" (possibly) in  ./administrator/components/com_virtuemart/models/product.php
at lines 1200 and 1223 where
Code Select
self::$_cacheOpt[$virtuemart_product_id] is used it would stop recaptcha working on the "Ask" and "Recommend" buttons I had to alter the two lines to
Code Select
self::$_cacheOpt[(int)$virtuemart_product_id] adding the (int) fixed it.
Not sure if this is relevant but thought I'd post.

Unfortunately the problem remains after updating to 4.6
Also the code suggested by WebStuff didn't solve the problem.

WebStuff, that is strange, that this fixes something there. But I will take a look.

Patbe60, which captcha do you use? there are different "types". Some use 3rd party plugins, others just joomla plugins of older versions.

Finally I could solve also this problem:

In my template css I had iframe {height:100%}. Deleting this line solved the problem.
