Some problem with comment posting … ?

Hi there

I decided to turn on comment posting but it seems to have a problem when I use it with  Google Captcha (reCAPTCHA) by BestWebSoft.

As you can see on the page http://bit.ly/1UzgNsg I do not know if it has anything to do with the problem, the fields for name, email, site & reCaptcha are below the “Post comment” button.

If you try to post a comment, it consistently gives the error

ERROR: You have entered an incorrect reCAPTCHA value. Click the BACK button on your browser, and try again.

… probably because of the wrong location?

In any case, the order is changed if I use another theme, like Twentythirteen, with those fields & reCaptcha coming BEFORE the Post Comment button.

that comment you see at the bottom was successfully posted that way after switching to Twentythirteen, but the issuecomes back when I switch back the theme, making it impossible to make a post. The error is not from wrong captcha value though. It shows it’s correct, with a “tick”, but all the same creates the error message.

You can give it a try  and see …

Is there any way this could be corrected?

I must add, I have no problem with reCaptcha elsewhere on the site, just with comments.

Thank you in advance & kind regards

Hi

Any help?

I disabled Google Captcha (reCAPTCHA) by BestWebSoft for commentry forms & instead installed SI CAPTCHA Anti-Spam and for other reasons have most plugins disabled, including some optimization plugins like “Remove query strings from static resources” & “WP Performance Score Booster“, which I thought may be behind this, but I have the same problem of Captcha & other user  info coming below the comment submission button (I dont know whether this matters) and in addition, the captcha image does not seem to get loaded.

UPDATE: the Captcha not loading is NOT limited to this theme BUT the placement of comment poster user info form & submission button are correct in several other themes, including twenty thirteen, fourteen, sixteen & another theme “directory starter”, but not in Firmasite …

This does not seem to prevent posting the comment, but would look nicer I guess. 😉

Kind regards
