# mycaptcha code location?

 * I used the automatic upgrade plug-in, which worked great except for my categories
   disappearing and after I installed that plug in, I wanted to install mycaptcha,
   but the install instructions say:
 * “Add the following code in your favorite theme(s) ‘comment.php’ file(s) (usually
   before the comment textarea)”
 * Well, I don’t have a comment.php in the theme directory. I have a comments.php(
   plural) is that where I’m to add the code? The only place I have a comment.php(
   no S on the end) is in wp_admin and wp_admin/includes. So where is this hack 
   to go?
 * Thanks for any help.

 * An update of sorts, I just decided to go ahead and put the code in the comments.
   php. Well, the comment box appears with the box above it that asks for the code.
   The picture of the captcha code doesn’t appear. I get a red x instead. It scarcely
   matter because I was about to post anyone with a new registration I made up.
 * I go into settings/mycaptcha and the examples show up fine. But when I get the
   red x, I did a “properties” check on it and this is what it showed:
 * [http://mysite.net/blog/wp-content/plugins/mycaptcha/php/crypt/cryptographp.php?cfg=0&#38](http://mysite.net/blog/wp-content/plugins/mycaptcha/php/crypt/cryptographp.php?cfg=0&#38);
 * Do I need to CHMOD something? Did I upload something in ASCHII that should’ve
   been binary, or vice versa?
 * Anyone? Anyone? 😉

 * Here’s another update, which I guess won’t be noticed, but hey, I’ll keep plugging
   away (no pun intended) I also get a 500 internal server error. I’m guessing the
   real problem/culprit is the 2.6 upgrade. My categories disappeared, which has
   no connection to the plug-in. People can’t register because now the mail doesn’t
   work and send out passwords. I backed up all my data for the version I had before
   this. I guess I’ll downgrade. Is 2.6 kind of the Vista of Word Press?
