    Hello!

    Thank you very much for this awesome plugin. Helped me understand a lot about WP security.

    Is it possible to add CAPTCHA on my comment form if i’m not using comment_form() function to create it? Shortcode or something?

    Thanks in advance.

    PS Noting that in my case if “Add CAPTCHA” option was checked comments didn’t show up on page. I could see them in admin panel but they was completely blank (no author, no content, not even commented post title)

  • This is something that your theme does actually (you shouldn’t have to do anything other than to use a properly coded theme). Did you create your own theme by any chance?

    I’ve forgot to say about that. Yes, I’ve created my own theme and custom comments form as well (that’s why I’m not using comment_form() function).

    What you probably should do is look at a theme structure of a properly coded theme then do the same thing for your comment area (in terms of the code structure). Then it will go through all the proper action hooks and filters and things will work as it should.
