By default, Contact Form 7 loads Google reCAPTCHA scripts on every page of your site, even pages without forms. This plugin intelligently detects pages with Contact Form 7 shortcodes and only loads reCAPTCHA where needed.
Benefits:
✅ Improved page load speed
✅ Reduced HTTP requests
✅ Better user experience (no badge on non-form pages)
✅ Automatic detection – no configuration needed
✅ Works with all CF7 versions
How it works:
The plugin checks each page for Contact Form 7 shortcodes. If no form is found, it prevents reCAPTCHA scripts from loading, keeping your site fast and clean.
