    Hi,

    When i try to change the captcha genetation type on the settings page, i see it’s unable to change, because it’s not responding unlike other options. Because of this issue, the captcha gives invalid captcha error when someone tries to send a comment. Please help.

    Thank you.

    Hi fatihbasaran,

    Thank you for letting us know. This issue will be fixed in next releases.

    However, if you can not wait for an update you can fix it manually.

    Please find and edit the settings-form.php file in
    wp-content\plugins\wpdiscuz\options\options-layouts direction.

    You just need to replace the following code (line 74)

    $disableCaptcha = 'disabled="disabled"';

    To

    $disableCaptcha = '';

    Thank you, it works now!

    Hi,

    We have made the change in the code but Captcha is only disabled for account users (i.e. users logged in).

    How can this be disabled for non account users too?

    See example https://getwideideas.com/predicting-football-matches/

    Hi,

    Please navigate to Dashboard > Comments > Settings > Comment Form admin page, change “Captcha generation type” to “File system”.

    We cannot switch between File System and WP Session unless we make the code change as you state above. Making the code change and switching to File System does not fix the Captcha issue.

    Please advise

    Hi,

    To disable captcha for all visitors, just go to Forms and click default form, go to Comments > WPDiscuz > Forms and click Edit option under the default form. Then go to CODE field and click edit (right side, pencil icon) and disable two options following;

    Show for guests:
    Show for logged in users:

    Then save and clear cache if you using one.

    Thx Fatihbasaran!
    That worked.

    Hopefully they fix this issue pretty quickly as I would like to add Captcha back.
