    Hi Mike,
    It’s been long time with no issues, but I just updated to Version 4.0.44 on two sites. On one site the CAPTCHA image does not show, just the text “CAPTCHA”. I have tried refreshing and deactivating/activating the plug-in without any change. On the other site, everything works well.

    Hi,
    Because I needed to have the contact page working as soon as possible, I rolled back to an earlier version and found the CAPTCHA image was still not showing. Presumably I had caused the problem and found it was caused by a recent change to a .htaccess file. Sorry for any trouble. This is a great plug-in!

    What did you change in .htaccess to resolve this?

    Hello Roger,

    My problem had been self-inflicted. I had moved a site from one Apache server to other servers: one running on WAMP and one on Linux. I was trying to solve an issue of certain images not loading on the Linux server. Having solved loading issues previously with SVG files, I started by adding mimes to my .htaccess file

    AddType image/gif 
    AddType image/jpeg jpeg jpg
    AddType image/png

    It didn’t fix the problem, but caused the issue with the CAPTCHA.

    I finally found the cause of my image loading problem, which was that some images had some upper-case letters in the file name. I had forgotten that servers running on Windows can accept upper case, thus no problem on the WAMP server. However, those on Linux generally do not, although the previous server ran on Linux and the images had been displaying with no problems.

    I still don’t understand why adding these mimes, actually caused the CAPTHCHA problem and would appreciate further comments about this issue.
