I think I was the first person to discover and download the new version!!

Thank you for adding cc and bcc, I tested them...they work very well, as does &emailFromName.

Thank you also for documenting how to reference bcc and cc, and for adding in the placeholders part.

Thank you, Tom

Is it possible to use our own custom client-side recaptcha html code??

Using the placeholder, formit.recaptcha_html, I keep getting both the recaptcha images (e.g. new challenge, audio challenge, help, AND the equivalent text values, making a rather ugly display.

Please see the attached screenshot, it shows what happens...it is only a thumbnail below, please click the thumbnail, it is a full-sized picture.

So I am thinking find and use custom code...though I would REALLY rather use recaptcha’s ’clean’ theme.

Any help is appreciated, thank you...

Another question: is it possible to somehow use the Ajax recaptcha api?? This makes it possible to request a new captcha without refreshing the whole page and possibly losing one’s form responses.

Would I need a new custom hook to use custom recaptcha code?? I’m not really a programmer but I could experiment...

I’d really rather know how to fix the display issue though...Recaptcha’s ’clean’ theme is really quite nice.

Thank you, Tom

I tried to search before posting but I couldn’t find this requests:

1) I would like to have an error class I could add on a label or input field.

For example:

<label for="email"[[+fi.email.classes]]>Email:</label>
<input type="text" name="email:email:required" id="email" value="[[+fi.email]]"[[+fi.email.classes]]>

2) I would like to have a parameter for the main form template. Not for parsing it but simply for including it.

For example:

[[!FormIt?
  &hooks=`email,antispam`
  &formTpl=`contactForm`
  &emailTpl=`reportForm`
  &emailTo=`[email protected]`  
  &redirectTo=`10`  
]]

instead of

[[!FormIt?
  &hooks=`email,antispam`
  &emailTpl=`reportForm`
  &emailTo=`[email protected]`  
  &redirectTo=`10`  
]][[$contactForm]]

Thank you for your work sofar!
