Enable Cloudflare Turnstile

2. In the block editor, click on the main Form block to open the settings panel in the right sidebar.
3. Scroll down to the Cloudflare Turnstile section and toggle it On.

Method 2: Configure via Global Settings

1. From your WordPress dashboard, navigate to Gutena Forms → Settings → Anti-Spam → Cloudflare Turnstile.

Configuring Cloudflare Turnstile

Before proceeding, make sure you register for a Cloudflare account. You can sign up for a free account or choose any of Cloudflare’s paid plans.

Get the Turnstile Site and Secret Key

• Log in to your Cloudflare Dashboard.
• Navigate to the Application & Security > Turnstile section.
• Then, click the “Add Widget” button.

• Enter a name for your widget (this is for your internal reference) and add your domain name.

Note: Format your domain name like this: example.com so Cloudflare recognizes it. Also, you can add multiple domains. This allows you to use the same keys across multiple websites.

• Under Widget Type, select the option that best suits your form. This determines how Cloudflare checks for spam:

Here’s what each of these options do:

1. Managed: Cloudflare checks the visitor’s information to decide if an interaction is needed. If an interaction is required, the user will simply check a box. 
2. Non-interactive: This option shows a widget with a loading bar while Cloudflare runs a browser-based check. It’s a completely automated process with no user interaction needed.
3. Invisible: A background check that runs silently without any visible interaction or prompts for the user.

Finally, click on the “Create” button. On the next screen, ensure you copy the generated Site and Secret key.
