What are common challenges when integrating reCaptcha in PHP forms and how can they be addressed?

One common challenge when integrating reCaptcha in PHP forms is handling the validation of the reCaptcha response. This can be addressed by verifying the response using Google's reCaptcha API. Another challenge is displaying error messages to the user if the reCaptcha validation fails. This can be addressed by adding error handling logic to the form submission process. 

// Verify the reCaptcha response
$response = $_POST['g-recaptcha-response'];
$secretKey = 'YOUR_SECRET_KEY';
$verifyResponse = file_get_contents('https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify?secret=' . $secretKey . '&response=' . $response);
$responseData = json_decode($verifyResponse);

if (!$responseData->success) {
    // reCaptcha validation failed, display error message to the user
    echo 'reCaptcha validation failed. Please try again.';
} else {
    // reCaptcha validation successful, process the form submission
    // Add your form submission logic here
}
