 * Hello,
 * I have installed WP contact form 7, Contact Form 7 reCAPTCHA extension and WP-
   reCAPTCHA.
 * Whenever I try to add a captcha to a from I receive the following error
 * Warning: Parameter 1 to CF7reCAPTCHA::tag_pane() expected to be a reference, 
   value given in /home/digit193/public_html/HKR/wp-content/plugins/contact-form-
   7/admin/includes/tag-generator.php on line 68
 * Can you please assist in helping me use google re-captcha on the site?
 * Thanks,

 * You don’t need to do any of this. Uninstall wp recaptcha. I didn’t install any
   extension either, it seemed to be part of the package already. Just register 
   your site at google recaptcha, go to “integration” in cf7 and paste keys. Then
   put the shortcode in your form.
