New Commercial Services Section
We have now opened a commercial services section here on the forum for registered users. If you have a Fabrik project that you wish to have someone work on for you, post it under Help Wanted. If you are an application developer and wish to earn some money helping others, post your details under Fabrik Application Developers.
Both of these are unmoderated. It will be up to both parties to work out the details and come to an agreement.

Ok, so I'm still kind of working on this one. Witch conservative caching on, if I fill in the form, it just goes back to the form with no warnings.
With caching off, I did the same, then I get the warnings.
I left Fabrik's caching as is, in other words, on default. The Helix 3 template has Minify CSS and JS enabled.
On that specific page, that is a Page Builder page, not a regular com_content page. So the form module is embedded using Modules Anywhere ( https://www.regularlabs.com/extensions/modulesanywhere ). It uses a short code like {module xxx} with xxx being the module ID, in a regular text block.
Here's the form: https://www.solarconnect.africa/get-quote

Ok so I tested this again on this site: http://www.affordablehomesa.co.za/
Was thinking last night, perhaps I did not clear cache properly after testing it on the solar site.
First I disabled Joomla Cache.
The result was, form returns back to itself with no warnings. If I refresh the page, then the warnings come up, even comes up on other pages throughout the site even though I did not submit the form on those pages.
2nd, disabled minify css and js.
Result, the same.
Then I disabled Fabrik cache globally, result the same.
Then I physically disabled the System Cache Plugin.
The result was the same, with the difference, even if I keep refreshing, the warnings still don't come up.
I think it's possibly safe to say, this is not a cache issue. After every adjustment, I also cleared the Joomla cache. PageSpeed is also not enabled on that site.
*edit, just out of interest, long ago already i gave up on having the Ajax form validation switched on on any forms as I just could never get it to work.
Another point I'd like to raise is, on this Affordable home site, it's all Helix3 template, I did not use PageBuilder for any of the pages. And it's all Fabrik module, no Modules Anywhere.

Ok, Ajax seems to work now on both. At least it warns the user if they miss a field. I took a chance anyway and tried to submit the form without filling in fields, but that just takes you back to the form again with no warnings.
Going to test it now on the more advanced sites. Thanks for that.

OK, well it seems to work on all those sites now. Ajax not giving hassles like it did before. I have Page Speed on on this site: https://www.solarconnect.co.za too, it works fine there, but that site does not have reCaptcha installed.
It's not popping up with any validations on https://www.blackalsatian.co.za though. And it does not even submit. Even when you refresh. So I took a chance and disabled reCaptcha, which boom, makes it work again, with Ajax on.
So, this brings me back to my original title of this thread. There seems to be some weird thing going on with reCaptcha messing with validations or something. With reCaptcha element unpublished, it works fine with Ajax enabled.
Another observation I made now while testing all these forms, when you let your browser auto fill the fields, Ajax also seems to be struggling a bit.

It seems with reCaptcha on, linking to a normal Fabrik form page, not a module, and PageSpeed on, it works.
It does bring up a weird error though, see attached screenshot. That's the error I saw originally making me think it's reCaptcha.
When I fill in the missing fields, then it does submit.

What Captcha method are you using?
I just tested using the "invisible" method, and it works fine in a module.
https://www.screencast.com/t/6mjoauayXk
As you can see, the Javascript fires first on submit, gets the response token from Google, the form submits, then the server side code runs the validate, which succesfully verifies that token with Google.
I haven't tested with the visible recaptcha, as I never use that any more. But it should work (famous last words), as it uses pretty much the same code.

Not necessarily.
Are you using a simple module, or something like SP Page Builder?

Oh, hang on, do you have AJAX validation enabled? I just remembered I noticed an issue with that and Recaptcha recently.
Gimme a few mins to test that.

OK, try this ...
https://github.com/Fabrik/fabrik/commit/5cd221e73391ad164891995c15c4c482fe09ca5b
... which should fix a potential issue if you have AJAX validation enabled.

If that doesn't fix it, you'll have to point me at your page.
