It’s very possible these types of plugins don’t work well with the P2 theme.
Yes, that is in fact the case as I’ve tested it on a clean installation of p2 theme without any other plugin.
Also, other have said the same:

I’d recommend getting in touch with the plugin authors for more information about the specific plugins you’re trying out.
It is doubtful that there is something wrong with all of these plugins when it just seems like it is not working for the p2 theme. It is also doubtful the captcha authors would change their plugin just to make it work for one outlier theme, p2.
But it is worth trying out as there does not seem like there are any other solutions.
To that ends, I should provide the captcha author with some information. One thing I suspect since it is just p2 theme that does not work with these captcha plugin, there must be something different about p2 theme’s comment section that makes it different from other theme’s comment section. Any clue what it is? Or any other reason why p2 theme is incompatible?
Thanks
