 * The Captcha is no longer recognizing valid input since upgrade to 4.0.41.
    Regardless
   to a match it always throws a ‘did not match’ error. [http://prosperotest.wpengine.com/?page_id=117](http://prosperotest.wpengine.com/?page_id=117)
   Thanks for any help you can provide mdeemer

 * Thanks for the response, I did try the suggestions with no joy.
 * It is odd that I can get the Captcha to work in Firefox, but others cannot. IE11,
   Edge and Chrome consistently show the issue.
 * I do not know what kind of browser issue could be contributing to the problem
   we are having.
 * thanks for any help,

 * Actually I think I will use the honeypot spam capture instead since I see now
   that you have that option and I think that it is a better user experience.
 * Can you tell me if there is a way of testing that the feature works as expected?
   
   Thanks, Marcia

 * Hi Marcia, the only way to test honeypot spambot trap is by enabling this feature.
 * The following is what it says about this feature.
 * > Enables hidden empty field honyepot trap for spam bots. For best results, do
   > not enable unless you have a spam problem.

 * Thanks for your response, I cannot use the captcha as there are server issues
   that cannot be change in my hosted environment.
 *  I have also used the honeypot approach on a dot net site with no issues and 
   believe it to be a better user experience.
 * thanks for your help,
