Hi, please paste a larger snippet + line number showing where you put the code.
Here are the lines added to the file functions.php of my theme. There are fully identical to the lines of the section “How to whitelist certain IPs” in the FAQ of the plugin, but I changed ‘1.1.1.1’ to my actual IP number.
// hCaptcha filtre ajouté to whitelist certain IPs
/**
* Filter user IP to check if it is whitelisted.
* For whitelisted IPs, hCaptcha will not be shown.
*
* @param bool $whitelisted Whether IP is whitelisted.
* @param string $ip IP.
*
* @return bool
*/
function my_hcap_whitelist_ip( $whitelisted, $ip ) {
// Whitelist local IPs.
if ( false === $ip ) {
return true;
}
// Whitelist some other IPs.
if ( '1.1.1.1' === $ip ) {
return true;
}
return $whitelisted;
}
I do not see here the crucial line, which causes the function to work:
add_filter( 'hcap_language', 'my_hcap_language' );
Sorry, when I copied the lines from my functions.php file, I missed the last line that was well present in the file :
// hCaptcha filtre ajouté to whitelist certain IPs
/**
* Filter user IP to check if it is whitelisted.
* For whitelisted IPs, hCaptcha will not be shown.
*
* @param bool $whitelisted Whether IP is whitelisted.
* @param string $ip IP.
*
* @return bool
*/
function my_hcap_whitelist_ip( $whitelisted, $ip ) {
// Whitelist local IPs.
if ( false === $ip ) {
return true;
}
// Whitelist some other IPs.
if ( '1.1.1.1' === $ip ) {
return true;
}
return $whitelisted;
}
add_filter( 'hcap_whitelist_ip', 'my_hcap_whitelist_ip', 10, 2 );
the line
add_filter( 'hcap_language', 'my_hcap_language' );
is in principle used when we want to set hCaptcha language programmatically.

But This filter snippet seems not to work for me …
Apologies ))) I have copied the wrong line. You are right – you need
add_filter( 'hcap_whitelist_ip', 'my_hcap_whitelist_ip', 10, 2 );
If it does not work, it means that we cannot detect your IP address correctly. Please try to insert var_dump( $ip ) at the beginning of the my_hcap_whitelist_ip function.
Also, could you provide the URL of your website?
I added var_dump( $ip ); but does’nt improve.
URL of the website : https://attacn91.fr/
Thanks for your help.
I do not see any output of var_dump( $ip ) on the page. Can you make it work?
So far, it looks like your filter is placed in the wrong file and does not work, therefore.
OK, when I displayed $ip, it was returned “null”. So I added first the line
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
and the IP number is now well defined (ipv6).
But I don’t now actually in which file I have to add the snippet for the login. Up to now, I put it in the functions.php file, but it shouldn’t be the right place, because it doesn’t work. Hace you an idea where to put this snippet for the login session ?
Something is wrong with the above. First, $ip inside of the my_hcap_whitelist_ip cannot be null in any case. It can be a string with an IP address or false for a local IP address.
Secondly, there are contradictions in your reports: IP number is now well defined (ipv6), but `it doesn’t work. It looks like you need a developer with access to your site to help. Unfortunately, according to the rules of wp.org, we cannot ask for any access to your site.
It seems that the problem is not in the plugin and IP detection functionality.
So, I forced the function added in the theme’s function.php file to be true :
function my_hcap_whitelist_ip( $whitelisted, $ip ) {
return true;
return $whitelisted;
}
add_filter( 'hcap_whitelist_ip', 'my_hcap_whitelist_ip', 10, 2 );
but the hCaptcha is still present when I log in.
Maybe is this filter only valid for the pro version ?
It works now ! I simply moved the filter from the functions.php file of my theme to the functions.php file of the plugin (/src/php/includes/common).
Don’t understand why it is not working in the functions of my theme.
But it works now …
