    Hi there,

    I have a problem with a contact form using the built-in contact form and GDPR checkbox enabled.

    I get plenty of those spam mails per day, all with GDPR checkbox set to false.

    I already found some threads about my issue and often the hint to enable reCaptcha. However this is again sometimes a problem with GDPR rules (as the reCaptcha is a service from Google which is located in the USA and so outside of the scope of GDPR).

    I was wondering if it is possible to add some kind of snippet in functions.php or elsewhere to hook in the contact form validation, to make the checkbox validation server side. As I understood validation currently happens only via Javascript.

    Hopefully you can help.

    Best regards,

    Andreas

    Hey andreasobermeier,

    The contact form has the math captcha field, you can try using that.
