Implementation Questions

Q: Can I use multiple widgets on the same page?

<div class="cf-turnstile" data-sitekey="KEY1"></div>
<div class="cf-turnstile" data-sitekey="KEY2"></div>

Q: How can I reset a widget?

turnstile.reset();
// Or for a specific widget
turnstile.reset('#widget-container');

Security Questions

Q: Is it safe to store the secret key in environment variables?

A: Yes, storing sensitive credentials in environment variables is a security best practice. Never commit these values to version control.

Q: Should I validate responses server-side?

A: Yes, always validate responses server-side. Client-side validation alone is not secure.
