Issue
- When using Google's reCAPTCHA, the CAPTCHA option won't show, instead the message "Invalid domain for site key" is displayed where the CAPTCHA should be.
Environment
- Any Liferay DXP version with reCAPTCHA configured as the CAPTCHA engine.
Resolution
- reCAPTCHA uses a pair of public and private keys linked to the domains in which it would be used. The error arises when the reCAPTCHA keys configured in the portal are not linked under the reCAPTCHA settings to the domain the portal is using.
- To fix the issue access your reCAPTCHA Control Panel and ensure all domains which can be used to access your portal are listed under the "Domains" section.
- Copy and paste the keys from reCAPTCHA to your Liferay DXP, under System Settings > Security Tools > CAPTCHA.
