 * Suddenly it won’t load the recaptcha part of the login screen. When attempting
   login the error: ERROR: Google reCAPTCHA verification failed. Do you have JavaScript
   enabled?”
    appears.
 * I’ve tried local and server troubleshooting including removing or turning off
   plugins.
 * Is anyone else having this issue? Perhaps a 4.8.2 thing? A google hiccup?
 * Thanks

 * Same issue here. Using the latest version of the plugin and WordPress 4.8.2.

 * Hi guys,
 * I’m sorry, could you try a new version 2.8 of this plugin, please?

 * Hi [@pgreene18](https://wordpress.org/support/users/pgreene18/),
 * I’m sorry for that. No idea what could be wrong.
 * Maybe you have saved wrong keys. Try to login via FTP access and temporary rename
   plugin folder (/wp-content/plugins/simple-google-recaptcha) – disable the plugin.
 * After rename you will be able to login. When you will be logged in, try to rename
   plugin folder back to the original name and check&repair the keys in reCAPTCHA
   settings.
