Hey guys, I'm running CComments Pro 6.0.3 and over the weekend, a user had an issue posting a comment.

I reviewed, and I have my settings to allow all groups to post comments, and I have my security settings set to recaptcha, and only Public and Guest are selected to use security.

2 issues...

Problem 1. recaptcha v2 does not validate, and I found that my recaptcha keys were incorrect in CComments Security settings under com_content. I have updated them, and still, not working. Shows error message.

The captcha code that you provided doesn't match. Please correct it and send your comment again.


Now, I switched over to default captcha, and it works correctly right now, as far as it allows the comment to be posted. But recaptcha is not working no matter what I do. I get the error above.

Problem 2.I have Public and Guest set to use Security, but right now, the recaptcha box shows for logged in users as well. No matter what group they are in. I also double checked to make sure my test user was not incorrectly added to public or guest groups.

This is a live site, with paid members, so if you plan to do any testing and debugging, I will need to set up a test account for you.

And although I'm logged in using my customers account for ntls.co, this is Robert Vining from JoomStew, JoomPro, Roberts Web Design, working on this site.

Tell Daniel I said Hello!
