Hi,
I updated the contact 7 plugin to version 5.1.1 to start using recaptcha v3. I'm also running the latest version of your theme.
After updating the plugin I now receive the error: "There was an error trying to send your message. Please try again later."
The plugin developer mentions this regarding that error:
It is expected that some websites using reCAPTCHA v3 will experience side effects from the changes in 5.1.1. In those cases, you will see a response message surrounded by an orange border every time after you submit a form.
Orange Border ResponseThe orange border indicates that a spammy attempt has been detected by a spam protection module like reCAPTCHA. Seeing the orange border every time is obviously abnormal unless you are a real spambot.
If you get into such situations after upgrading to 5.1.1, you are advised to ensure that the theme you use properly loads JavaScript in the footer area of each page.
We know some theme authors improperly omit wp_footer() call to block scripts from loading. That is one of the worst practices in theme development that will surely causes problems like those explained above. Ask the theme author for a fix if you find your theme has such issues.

Could you please guide me as to how to fix this issue so the forms start working again?
Thanks.
