I am getting the following error when posting a new question

For security reasons, you must pass the remote ip to reCAPTCHA

Can anybody shed some light into this? The plugin has been installed here:

Batatolandia Forum Alemanha

Thank you very much.

Hi,
I checked and ask a question in your site and found that it worked well. I think you have solved this issue.

Hello Dominic,

Thanks for getting back to me. I saw your test question, however I am still seeing the same error. I’m not sure if this is coming from Google or is it a WordPress error. After doing some googling, I found that others who had experienced this issue did so because they mispelled the server array key. Like so: $_SERVER[‘REMOTEADDR’] instead of $_SERVER[‘REMOTE_ADDR’] . Could this be the issue here? If so, do you know where in the code I should look?

Cheers,

Celso

You can check it in the following 2 file:
\wp-content\plugins\dw-question-answer\inc\actions.php file - line 1544
\wp-content\plugins\dw-question-answer\inc\lib\recaptcha-php\example-captcha.php file
Hope this helps !

Thanks. Everything seems ok in the code, but it still didn’t work out for me.

CAPTCHA keys generated are associated with a domain, so if you are in local mode you may have changed the IP since you got the key and not recognize. I do not know, I think it would be best to consult with reCAPTCHA.
