Hi @misengineer,
Can try these steps to get reCaptcha working and not requiring email verification on your site?
1. Disable the Invisible Captcha plugin
2. Go into Wordfence and re-enable reCaptcha
3. Set the threshold to 1.0
For example: https://i.imgur.com/IwYUhYO.png
I’m thinking because both of these plugins use Google Recaptcha, it’s causing script conflicts within the login page. Fortunately, Wordfence does allow you to adjust the threshold, so it won’t annoy users with email verifications.

Hi and thanks for your quick response, Dave.
Well now I seem to have more problems, and I think that WordFence is acting like a chihuahua on meth.
For instance I added a DNS entry last night to allow me to use Google Webmaster Tools and it issued a stern warning.
Then I tried to log in this morning, somehow it kicked me out despite the fact that I opted for the 30-day “don’t bug me with my 2FA” creds a few days ago.
Now couldn’t log in through WooCommerce nor through the WP login interface.
Luckily my hosting provider was able to disable WF and I could get in.
I have disabled WF and am now asking if it’s possible to remove all the changes WF made to my database. Because when I did this last time (inactvate, delete, re-installed, re-activated) it remembered my last settings.
Basically I am exhausted dealing with the 2FA issues. Any chance I can start over short of starting from a new install? I have users on my site right now.
Not feeling good about this but any help would be most appreciated.
Thanks so much in advance,
Gigi
P.S. I meant to say “DELETED” not disabled WF.
BTW I just got spammed so did what you suggested
1. Disable the Invisible Captcha plugin
2. Go into Wordfence and re-enable reCaptcha
3. Set the threshold to 1.0
And just got an email verification prompt – again ! – despite the fact the threshold was changed. I tested this on an admin email as well as a subscriber (lowest role) and I got that blasted email verification prompt again 🙁
I suspect that the earlier work I did has permanently written stuff in the dbase and I wonder if there’s a way that WF can do a full reset that would clear the stuff in the database.
Thanks again,
Gigi
Fixed using “Delete Login Security tables and data on deactivation” found at the bottom of the Login Security Settings.
