 * Hey IQComputing, this plugin has been a real lifesaver. So much so that I started
   verifying it was installed for all sites using WP-CLI’s ‘[plugin verify-checksums](https://developer.wordpress.org/cli/commands/plugin/verify-checksums/)‘
   feature. It pulls down the JSON file (for example here: [https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin-checksums/wpcf7-recaptcha/1.1.4.json](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin-checksums/wpcf7-recaptcha/1.1.4.json)
   for this plugin’s latest version) and verifies md5s between on-server and the
   json file. The recent removal of the /languages folder is causing WP-CLI to toss
   an error:
 *     ```
       +-----------------+-------------------------------+-----------------+
       | plugin_name     | file                          | message         |
       +-----------------+-------------------------------+-----------------+
       | wpcf7-recaptcha | languages/wpcf7-recaptcha.pot | File is missing |
       +-----------------+-------------------------------+-----------------+
       ```
   
 * .. because the /languages folder is still present in that json file. I’m not 
   entirely sure how to fix that, but it seems like possibly the folder was [removed without bumping the version number](https://github.com/wp-cli/checksum-command/issues/46)?
 * Anyway, thanks again for the great plugin that was a simple, reliable fix to 
   a sudden issue caused by CF7’s change(s). I just thought I’d report this and 
   hope for the best, it doesn’t cause any problems or affect anything other than
   the output of my update scripts I run daily.

 * Thank you for bringing this to our attention! It does appear that in the 1.1.4
   commit was modified after the fact to remove the languages folder and unfortunately
   the only way to solve this was to bump the version number as you suggest. We 
   pushed a new version to include a link to Github and solve the SVN merge conflict
   which appears to fix the [JSON Checksum for v1.1.5](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin-checksums/wpcf7-recaptcha/1.1.5.json).
 * Thanks again for your report! We’ll mark this thread as resoled for now, have
   a wonderful rest of your week!
