    Hello CAPTCHA 4WP team,

    thanks for your plugin.

    We are getting the following Fatal error after upgrading PHP from 7.4 to 8.2:

    PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Error: Using $this when not in object context in /wp-content/plugins/advanced-nocaptcha-recaptcha/includes/class-c4wp-captcha-class.php:565

    Hello Rafael,

    Thank you for using our plugin. I am sorry to read about your issue. A few quick questions first:

    1. What version of WordPress and the plugin are you running please?
    2. Are you seeing this error in the debug log and the plugin keeps running or this is a show stopper and the plugin cannot be activated?

    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    Hi Robert,

    many thanks for your quick response.

    The versions are:

    • WordPress version: 6.4.1
    • CAPTCHA 4WP version: 7.3.1

    The login page is working fine, the problem is on the Registration page. I caught the error from the PHP error log in the backend. WordPress didn’t crash for the user, it showed only a “blank page”.

    Thanks,

    Rafael

    Thank you for the details and clarification. So just to confirm, this is only happening when a user tries to register, correct?

    Can you please try to enable CAPTCHA on the password reset page and see if the issue persists there as well?

    Thanks.

    It works on the login page, and password reset page as well.

    it does not work on the Registration page.

    We use Google reCAPTCHA v2, BTW.

    Thank you for the details. I have just escalated all the information to the developers and we’ll get back to you with an update as soon as possible.

    Hello rsoareslangara,

    Sorry for the delay. We have been unable to reproduce the issue. However, the developers think they know what the issue is so they have prepared a build with the fix.

    Can you please download the build 20231213-advanced-nocaptcha-recaptcha-php-error-patch.zip and advise if this fixes the issue? You can download the patch from our Support download section.

    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    Hi Robert,

    it seems that this build did the trick!

    The Registration webpage is now working on our DEV environment, without breaking the other pages (login, forgot password, etc).

    We’d prefer to wait until an official plugin version is released, if it does not take so long. Do you have any idea when a new version with this correction will be released?

    Thank you so much.

    I am glad to read that Rafael.

    It won’t talk long for the next release. We are wrapping up things and should be able to release an update tomorrow or on Thursday.

    I hope that helps. Please let me know if there is anything else we can do to assist you.

    Hi Robert,

    thanks for releasing a new version!

    I updated it on PROD however the reCAPTCHA field is not being displayed on the Registration Form, even though we had set it up to be displayed on the plugin settings.

    The field is working normally on the other pages (login, forgot password, etc).

    Do we need to reset something internally? Perhaps a DB update?

    Thank you,

    Rafael

    I am sorry to read that Rafael.

    Offhand it is very difficult to tell what could be causing the issue. Would you be able to share the URL of the form in question?

    If you do not want to share this publicly, please send us an email at [email protected] with:

    1. The URL of the form
    2. The system information file (from the Help & Contact Us section in the plugin)

    In your email please mention this forum thread so we know which issue it is.

    Looking forward to hearing from you.

    Hi Robert,

    Sorry for the delay, we were in a Winter Break.

    I sent the required information to that Email, Daniel from your team made the first contact.

    I’ll update this thread once we have a resolution.

    Thanks,

    Rafael
