Hi,

Yes i’m using it !
I tried also to deactivate it and deactivate the ReCaptcha option in login options, but nothing change…

Any idea ?

Thank you for your support

Your message ‘To use reCAPTCHA you must get an API key from‘
is not used in the ‘Ultimate Member – reCAPTCHA’ plugin code.

Your error message is found in the ‘Users Ultra PRO’ plugin:
https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/users-ultra/

in this php script at lines 122 and 175:

wp-content/plugins/users-ultra/xooclasses/xoo.userultra.recaptchalib.php

if (!function_exists('recaptcha_get_html')) {

function recaptcha_get_html ($pubkey, $error = null, $use_ssl = false)
{
	if ($pubkey == null || $pubkey == '') {
		die ("To use reCAPTCHA you must get an API key from <a href='https://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin/create'>https://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin/create</a>");
	}
	
	if ($use_ssl) {
                $server = RECAPTCHA_API_SECURE_SERVER;
        } else {
                $server = RECAPTCHA_API_SERVER;
        }

if (!function_exists('recaptcha_check_answer')) {

function recaptcha_check_answer ($privkey, $remoteip, $challenge, $response, $extra_params = array())
{
	if ($privkey == null || $privkey == '') {
		die ("To use reCAPTCHA you must get an API key from <a href='https://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin/create'>https://www.google.com/recaptcha/admin/create</a>");
	}

	if ($remoteip == null || $remoteip == '') {
		die ("For security reasons, you must pass the remote ip to reCAPTCHA");
	}

When I tried to login at your site I got the message from the php die function

Deactivate reCAPTCHA or add API keys for your ‘Users Ultra PRO’ plugin.

Hi, thank you.

But… I’m not using this plugin at all ;(

Deactivate the plugin.

Deactivate the plugin ? Which plugin ?

The ‘Users Ultra PRO’ plugin.

Now your login works but without reCAPTCHA
Activate the ‘Ultimate Member – reCAPTCHA’ plugin

Now you have reCAPTCHA active and without the error message
so login should be OK

Thank you Missveronica.

But i told you… I’m not using this “Users Ultra Pro” plugin ??

Nvm, i found the problem. I was using another plugin called “Login Widget With Shortcode”. That was the conflict.

So my problem seems to be resolved.

Have a good day !

If you are not using the ‘Users Ultra PRO’ plugin you should delete the plugin.

Have a good day !

Hi @yohrn
Thanks for letting us know how you resolve the issue. I am closing this thread now.

Hey @yohrn, any advice on getting to login? I can’t access my wordpress page to get to my website to deactivate that plugin.
