    We need the search to be secure, can a captcha or recaptcha be enabled from the plugin configuration? or what other way can it be done?

    Hi,

    I’m afraid there is no such option, nor an easy way to add it programmatically, as re-Captchas have to be rendered on both client and server side. I usually recommend a custom code where I can, but this is far more complicated.

    Having a re-captcha within the search form is very unusual and it will not achieve anything, as the requests are secure on their own. Browsers use a no cross-site policy, so fetch/xhr requests can’t be made outside of the website scope.

    If you want to have the website secured, then I rather recommend using Cloudflare CDN with the highest security settings. That will automatically trigger a captcha to the visitors which are suspicios or flagged.
