  You could try using either:
  
  add fixed data
  add fixed data condition
  
  to add in the recaptcha response if you detect recaptcha code on the page and extract the sitekey
  
  or
  
  modify step
  modify step condition
  
  to send the submission process to a different step entirely if you detect recaptcha code on the page

  Thanks,

  
  

  Any example would be great to simplify my work because i have never used these codes before.

  Details are in the script manual: https://docu.gsa-online.de/search_engine_ranker/script_manual
  
  For examples, just search through the existing engine files in windows explorer. Set up directory indexing for the Engines directory to enable text-based search for all the .ini files.

  Hey Sickseofan,

  I've worked with this exact scenario in custom engines before. Cherub's suggestions are spot on but let me break down the implementation a bit more so you can get this working properly.

  For detecting reCAPTCHA on a page and handling it conditionally, you have two solid approaches:

  Option 1: Using Fixed Data Conditions

  This is my preferred method because it keeps everything in one submission step:

  1. In your engine definition, add a "Check for String" verification before your submission step. Set it to look for typical reCAPTCHA markers like g-recaptcha or data-sitekey in the page source.

  2. Then create two fixed data entries:

     • First one with your basic post data: a&b&c
     • Second one with your reCAPTCHA data: a&b&c&recaptcha_value=%recaptcha%

  3. For the second fixed data, add a condition by clicking "Add Condition" and set it to:

     • Field: "Source Code"
     • Operator: "Contains"
     • Value: g-recaptcha or data-sitekey

  4. For the first fixed data (without reCAPTCHA), add the opposite condition:

     • Field: "Source Code"
     • Operator: "Does Not Contain"
     • Value: g-recaptcha or data-sitekey

  This way, GSA SER will automatically choose the correct post data format based on whether it detects reCAPTCHA on the page.

  
  Option 2: Using Different Steps

  If your submission process is more complex with reCAPTCHA sites:

  1. Create two separate submission steps in your engine.

  2. For the first step (Step A), set your basic post data (a&b&c) and add a condition:

     • Field: "Source Code"
     • Operator: "Does Not Contain"
     • Value: g-recaptcha

  3. For the second step (Step , include your reCAPTCHA handling and set the condition:

     • Field: "Source Code"
     • Operator: "Contains"
     • Value: g-recaptcha

  4. In Step B, make sure to add the reCAPTCHA solving part with proper sitekey extraction. You can use regex like:

     data-sitekey="([^"]+)"
     

     to extract the sitekey into a variable, then use it in your post data.

  
  For more reliable detection, you might want to check for multiple reCAPTCHA indicators. Some sites load reCAPTCHA differently, so looking for both g-recaptcha and data-sitekey or even google.com/recaptcha can improve your detection accuracy.

  Also, don't forget to test your engine with both types of sites to make sure the conditions are working correctly. The verification log in GSA SER will show you which path it's taking during submission.

  Hope this helps you get your engine working properly!

  Hmm, I don't think AI has knowledge of SER script yet - none of the above is accurate.

  I do not think you need to go to these length for fixing a simple solution. There is a simple statement that can be use to make it short. Add fixed data condition. This is al you need and boom your work is done
