This notice relates to the following platform: VIP Go
If you’re making use of Jetpack’s email sharing button on your VIP Go site, using reCAPTCHA is now a requirement.
Email share buttons are a common target for abuse and are often used to generate high volumes of email spam, which can impact the integrity and stability of your site. The reCAPTCHA service adds an extra layer of protection to prevent this abuse.
This change will go into effect on Thursday, May 10, 2018.
What do I need to do?
To enable reCAPTCHA, you need to register a reCAPTCHA account and place the credentials in your vip-config.php file:
define( 'RECAPTCHA_PUBLIC_KEY', '' ); define( 'RECAPTCHA_PRIVATE_KEY', '' );
More details can be found on the Jetpack Support page.
If you have any questions about this change, please open a ticket and we’re happy to help.
