Integrations is the single place to store the third-party API keys your widgets need — enter each once and every widget reuses it, so rotating a key updates the whole site at a stroke.

Where: WP Admin → Tiger Elements → Tools → Integrations.

Connected services

  • Google reCAPTCHA — a site key + secret key pair to protect forms from spam. Choose v2 checkbox, v2 invisible or v3 (with a score threshold you can tune). Once configured, Tiger can wire it straight into WordPress’s own login and registration forms.
  • Google Maps / Places — powers the map and store-locator widgets (the key itself is entered under API Settings).
  • Google Reviews — pulls real Places reviews into the reviews and badge widgets.
  • Instagram — an access token for the Instagram feed widget.

Enter once, use everywhere

Because keys are stored centrally, adding a Maps, Reviews or reCAPTCHA-protected widget just works — there are no per-widget key fields to keep in sync. Update a key here and every widget that depends on it picks up the new value immediately.

Security

Secret values — like the reCAPTCHA secret key — are encrypted at rest (AES-256, derived from your site’s AUTH_KEY) and never echoed back into the page or an API response; the field simply shows that a secret is stored. Saving requires an admin with manage_options and a valid nonce. reCAPTCHA stays inert until you actually configure a key, so enabling it changes nothing until it’s set up.

Troubleshooting

reCAPTCHA blocks legitimate submissions.

On v3, lower the score threshold — a threshold set too high rejects real users. Confirm the site and secret keys are a matched pair from the same reCAPTCHA type (v2 keys won’t validate a v3 token).

The Instagram feed is empty.

Access tokens expire. Regenerate the token and paste the new value here; the feed widget will refresh on the next load.

I rotated a Google key and maps broke.

Make sure the new key carries the same API restrictions and referrer allow-list as the old one, and clear any page cache so the updated key is embedded on the front end.
