Hi @jaledwith and @spale ,

Sorry to hear this is happening and thanks for reporting it.

It looks like you are running a pretty old version of PHP. I don’t have easy access to this version, so if you can test a patch for me this would help.

Line 353 of login-nocaptcha.php looks like this:

if(!empty(get_option('login_nocaptcha_error')) && (empty(get_option('login_nocaptcha_working')) || (time() - get_option('login_nocaptcha_notice') < 30))) {

Please can you replace it with these lines instead?

        $login_nocaptcha_error = get_option('login_nocaptcha_error');
        $login_nocaptcha_working = get_option('login_nocaptcha_working');
        $login_nocaptcha_notice = get_option('login_nocaptcha_notice');
        $time = time();
        if(!empty($login_nocaptcha_error) && (empty($login_nocaptcha_working) || ($time - $login_nocaptcha_notice < 30))) {

If that works, I will release it right away with 1.6.2.

Note also with the release of WordPress 5.2 (coming very soon) the minimum PHP version will be 5.6.20.

Hi @jaledwith — this error doesn’t make sense for the code I provided earlier. I suspect an ampersand character may have snuck in there instead of the single quote (').

Just in case it was an issue with the code styling on the forum, here is the code again:

$login_nocaptcha_error = get_option(‘login_nocaptcha_error’);
$login_nocaptcha_working = get_option(‘login_nocaptcha_working’);
$login_nocaptcha_notice = get_option(‘login_nocaptcha_notice’);
$time = time();
if(!empty($login_nocaptcha_error) && (empty($login_nocaptcha_working) || ($time – $login_nocaptcha_notice < 30))) {

Let me know!

Great, I’ll push it to the repo so everyone can benefit.

May I ask what version of PHP was triggering this error? That way I can document it.

Great, thanks. Have just pushed 1.6.2 live; should take just a few minutes to show as an update in wp-admin.

@spale I agree! 🙂
