Hi all,

Is it possible to change the size of the Recaptcha answer box on the contact us form ?

I have just installed the Recaptcha addon, and the text for the capture is a bit bunched up, so I wanted to shrink the box where you put the answer to allow more room for the recaptcha text instructions to spread out a bit, see image.

I have managed to shrink the box down where you enter the capture answer but I cannot get it to align to the right so there is more room for the recaptcha instructions text.

This is the CSS code I used to shrink the box for the capture answer, I changed the 75% to 55% (maybe this is incorrect and I should not do it this way?) :

.col-sm-9 {
flex: 0 0 auto;
width: 55%;
}

Also I see in the back office there is a section under modules for the Contact Us form (called Modular contact_us), but it has nine settings (A through to I) so am I supposed to adjust the box sizes here ? if so what one is it ? (as their are only four areas for text plus the capture reply box on the contact page)

Maybe what I am asking is not as simple as I think ?

Thank you.

That addon Maths Captcha is made for Bootstrap 4 I believe, so it will look funky as your site is Bootstrap 5.
Functional wise, it should work though.

At some point I might have enough time to release a new Bootstrap 5 version, but that won't be anytime soon.
Gratis addons are right at the bottom of my list of to-do's.

Like this:

[ 22 + 9 = ?? Type the answer 31 ____________________ ⓘ ]

A bit like how the other input fields look.

Get rid of that CSS code as you will be affecting every col-sm-9 site wide.

Don't mess with the modular contact_us thing, just stick with default settings for now.
