Hi Fellow Developers

I installed recaptcha on my website and since then cannot login to my WP admin panel. It shows wrong captcha enterd and invalid site key. Can anybody help me to resolve this issue


Thanks

Forewarning I'm not a Wordpress user. But this error sounds to me like an incorrect setting. I'm not sure how you "enabled recaptcha" but if you have admin access to recaptcha where you can specify which domains are used for the recaptcha then that is where you'd want to go.

You'll want to create or update the site key as the error mentions.

If you're logged into your email associated with recaptcha you'll want to go to this link/screen


If your site is already in here, then just click on it and view the keys like this:



Other wise create a new one and replace the site key/secret key in Wordpress.

Thank You Jacob

But the problem is I cannot access my wordpress backend as it is asking me to enter the captcha, which I cannot as you can see in the image above. Please let me know if there is any alternative method so that I can access the backend again.

It's resolved now. I deleted the plugin by accessing it through c apnel. 
Thanks
