Description of my issue:

I've set CSRF/Anti-spam form protection (CSRFShield) to Advanced and can find the hidden field on one form but not another on the same website.

To look for the hidden field, I did a View Source on the page and look for:

style="float: left; position: absolute; z-index: 1000000; left: -10000px; top: -10000px;"

The form that doesn't have it is a contact form created with aiContactSafe (http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/contacts-and-feedback/contact-forms/7901).

Is there a criteria that determines if a hidden field is to be added?

Thanks in advance for your help. Great product!

Thanks for the quick response! Yes, that form does use AJAX, so that's the reason.

How about Joomla login and search forms then? Do they use iFrames/AJAX? I've cleaned the Joomla and browser cache and they don't have a hidden field.

Just want to say thanks for the developer release. Now all forms, including the contact form created with aiContactSafe, contain the hidden field. I trust that the fix be included in the next official release.
