reCAPTCHA v2 Not Displaying

    Hi, love the plugin!

    For some reason, the reCAPTCHA v2 is visible on the Registration page, but invisible on Log-In and Password Reset.

    I’ve attempted to login as a test user, though I get the message “You must check that box to say you’re not a bot.”. I’ve run this test with the same results on Firefox, IE, and PaleMoon.

    I also have the WP-Members Log-in widget in my footer, and that also gives the “You must check that box to say you’re not a bot.” message.

    As a last resort, I’ve turned off captcha in WP-Members settings, but I’m still getting the same message – even after emptying cache.

    Any thoughts?

    The plugin does not use or support captcha in the login form (or other forms generated by the login form function which would include password change, password reset, and forgot username).

    The error message you indicated does not come from WP-Members so it sounds like you have another captcha plugin installed that probably adds captcha to the wp-login.php. While it’s not the same plugin as mentioned in the following post, it may be the same workaround:

    Thanks for informing that WP-Members only adds captcha to registration. Is there a way to include that information on the settings page to avoid confusion?

    I’m using another captcha for my contact form, though that wasn’t the conflict.

    It turned out to be settings in “iControlWP” Shield. I simply turned off “Login Protection”, emptied cache and all works well. I’ll be turning settings in that module back on until I find the exact problem setting.

    Thanks for your help!

    just to update it was G.A.S.P. Protection.

    Hey, this is Paul, the author of the Shield plugin.

    Just a nod to the developer – the Shield plugin hooks into the standard WordPress login form hooks to stop bot/brute force login attempts. It might be worth firing off the the ‘login_form’ hook somewhere in your plugin’s login form.

    Perhaps just before the form closes, fire off:

    do_action( 'login_form' );
