Question

When implementing the new Google Invisible reCATPTCHA  by default you get a little  protected by reCAPTCHA  badge in the bottom right of the screen that pops out when you roll over it     I d like to hide this

User · Answer

I decided to hide the badge on all pages except my contact page (using Wordpress):

/* Hides the reCAPTCHA on every page */
.grecaptcha-badge {
    visibility: hidden !important;
}

/* Shows the reCAPTCHA on the Contact page */
/* Obviously change the page number to your own */
.page-id-17 .grecaptcha-badge {
    visibility: visible !important;
}

I'm not a web developer so please correct me if there's something wrong.

EDIT: Updated to use visibility instead of display.

A slight variant of Matthew Dowell s post which avoids the short flash  but displays whenever the contact form 7 form is visible   div grecaptcha-badge      width 0  important     div grecaptcha-badge show      width 256px  important       I then added the following to the header php in my child theme    lt script gt  jQuery  window   load function           if  jQuery    wpcf7    length             jQuery    grecaptcha-badge    addClass   show                lt  script gt

Since hiding the badge is not really legit as per the TOU  and existing placement options were breaking my UI and or UX  I ve come up with the following customization that mimics fixed positioning  but is instead rendered inline     You just need to apply some CSS on your badge container    badge-container     display  flex    justify-content  flex-end    overflow  hidden    width  70px    height  60px    margin  0 auto    box-shadow  0 0 4px  ddd    transition  linear 100ms width     badge-container hover       width  256px      I think that s as far as you can legally push it

I saw next comment about this     It s also helpful to place the badge inline if you want to apply your own CSS to it  But do remember that you agreed to show Google s Terms and conditions when you registered for an API key - so don t hide it  please  And while it is possible to make the badge disappear completely with CSS  we wouldn t recommend it

My solution was to hide the badge  then display it when the user focuses on a form input - thus still adhering to Google s T amp Cs   Note  The reCAPTCHA I was tweaking had been generated by a WordPress plugin  so you may need to wrap the reCAPTCHA with a  lt div class  inv-recaptcha-holder  gt       lt  div gt  yourself   CSS   inv-recaptcha-holder     visibility  hidden    opacity  0    transition  linear opacity 1s      inv-recaptcha-holder show     visibility  visible    opacity  1    transition  linear opacity 1s      jQuery    document  ready function           form input  form textarea   on   focus   function             inv-recaptcha-holder   addClass   show                 Obviously you can change the jQuery selector to target specific forms if necessary

For users of Contact Form 7 on Wordpress this method is working for me  I hide the v3 Recaptcha on all pages except those with Contact 7 Forms     But this method should work on any site where you are using a unique class selector which can identify all pages with text input form elements    First  I added a target style rule in CSS which can collapse the tile   CSS   div grecaptcha-badge hide      width 0  important      Then I added JQuery script in my header to trigger after the window loads so the  grecaptcha-badge  class selector is available to JQuery  and can add the  hide  class to apply the available CSS style      window  load function           if       wpcf7   length               grecaptcha-badge   addClass   hide                    My tile still will flash on every page for a half a second  but it s the best workaround I ve found so far that I hope will comply  Suggestions for improvement appreciated
