# Captcha giving "incorrect security code" error

 * I saw some other people with this issue but I did not see a resolution.
 * If I use a captcha in any form it will give the user the error: “incorrect security
   code”. I have tried this using the default forms and forms that I create- all
   give the same error when captcha is used.
 * Recaptcha is not an option because the space is too small for a Recaptcha.

 * thanks,

 * Dear Charlie,
 * Please check out whether you have caching options with any of your plugins or
   your theme settings and exclude it for the pages, where you have the form. If
   the page is cached the incorrect security note gets displayed since it displays
   the previous image, where requesting to input the “invisible” new code. Thank
   you.
