Hi nhartsog are you saying that the captcha is not working correctly?
Yes, it is not working correctly. The captcha (simple math problem) is letting the comment post for right answers, wrong answers, or even if the captcha input box is left blank.
Hi can you carry out a test. Disable all your other plugins except this one and see if the captcha works. If that does not work can you test one of WordPress default themes like Twenty Fourteen or so.
Also make sure that if you are using a cache plugin it is set correct and if you are using a cache plugin can you also delete the cache.
Thank you
Thanks for all of the diagnosis tips mbrsolution! I disabled every plugin but the WP Security, and I switched to the TwentyFourteen theme, and it’s still accepting comments regardless of the Captcha input…BUT (hopefully this helps someone else in the future) I realized I was logged in as the administrator…when I am NOT logged in as the administrator (as will be the case for most commentators) the captcha code worked exactly as it should…Reactivated the main theme and all of the plugins, and it still works perfectly for non administrators…and of course, everything else with this plugin seems to be working quite well!
Thanks again.

I have Enabled Captcha On Comment Forms in the WP Security plugin in an attempt to block SPAM, and it has added the Captcha input to ask for the code when submitting a comment now, but the comment gets submitted no matter what is entered into the Captcha Code input…it doesn’t seem to be validating this input…
