Math Captcha Failure on login forms with 4.4.11

    It looks like with the change from storing the captcha settings from transients to options, I’m unable to get past the math captchas on the login forms.

    If I disable the delete_option commands on lines 208/209 in the classes/wp-security-captcha.php file, then I’m able to successfully complete the math equation and finish logging in. With those two lines enabled, the math captcha always fails.

    When I added logging to that function, it appears to be running twice. It returns true the first time, then deletes the option, and on the second pass, it fails because the option was deleted.

    This is happening on multiple sites that I manage some with the default twenty-fourteen theme and others with custom themes.

    Are you using any plugins like contact forms 7 that also have Captchas enabled?

    No, we do have Gravity Forms enabled, but we do not have any captchas setup for any plugins. Going through and disabling the plugins one by one, I have narrowed down that it is a conflict with two separate plugins we are using.

    “WP Last Login” and “User Meta Pro” both cause the error if they are enabled.

    I’m assuming they are why the login hooks are getting called twice.

    I’ve switched from “WP Last Login” to a different plugin “When Last Login” that performs similarly, but does not cause a conflict with the math Captcha.

    However, we are unable to remove the “User Meta Pro” plugin, and with it enabled, we are unable to login unless we disable the two delete_option lines or turn off the math captchas.

    I have had a look at user meta pro: https://user-meta.com/ and it does look it has a captcha setting.
    I would suggest that you use the captcha on that plugin and leave it disabled on AIOWPS
