Error message when processing donation

@armenta Thanks for reaching out.

Yes, that error usually shows up when the security nonce can’t be validated for some reason. It’s usually related to caching. Even if you have removed cache plugins, ensure that your hosting company hasn’t perhaps any server-side caching (check your control panels). You don’t have to disable caching completely, just disallows the URLs for caching where the donation forms appear.

You can also try this snippet, which disables the check: https://library.wpcode.com/snippet/7oq3yl5w/

We don’t usually recommend this, but has worked in the past when other attempts haven’t produced enough results (and might allow you to restore CAPTCHA solutions).

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.

@armenta Charitable adds a security “nonce” so that each donation is unique and checked. It sounds like your cache is “caching” that unique “nonce” on page loads which is causing the issue. The snippet removes that so it’s technically less secure hence we don’t usually recommend this. But has worked in the past and as a I mentioned when other attempts haven’t produced enough results (and might allow you to restore CAPTCHA solutions).

There SHOULD be a way to add your page(s) to an “ignore” list but you would need to contact GoDaddy about this. You shouldn’t have to manually clear the cache (that’s crazy).

Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions.

@armenta There is a hook that can render something before the donation button on forms.

add_action( 'charitable_form_after_fields', function( $form, $view_args ) {
    echo do_shortcode('[cf7sr-turnstile]');
}, 10, 2 );

That should do what you are asking. As for it working as you intended, you might want to reach out to Contact Form 7 if you need support. And again, we would also suggest investigation of selectively deactivating cache on your site for certain pages.

Hope this helps!
