Title: PHP error Last modified: August 21, 2020 --- # PHP error * Resolved [2fer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dominolady/) * (@dominolady) * [5 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/php-error-408/) * Hello WebCource, Your captcha appears to work perfectly except that it is filling up my php error logs with this line: [21-Aug-2020 01:34:02 UTC] PHP Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent in /home/example/public_html/ wp-content/plugins/wc-captcha/includes/class-cookie-session.php on line 49 and occasionally this line: [21-Aug-2020 01:11:31 UTC] PHP Warning: Cannot modify header information – headers already sent in /home/example/public_html/wp-content/ plugins/wc-captcha/includes/class-cookie-session.php on line 46 * Those lines relate to: Line 46: setcookie( ‘mc_session_ids[default]’, $this- >session_ids[‘default’], current_time( ‘timestamp’, true ) + apply_filters( ‘ Wc_Captcha_time’, Wc_Captcha()->options[‘general’][‘time’] ), COOKIEPATH, COOKIE_DOMAIN,( isset( $_SERVER[‘HTTPS’] ) && $_SERVER[‘HTTPS’] !== ‘off’ ? true : false ), true); and Line 49: setcookie( ‘mc_session_ids[multi][‘ . $i . ‘]’, $this->session_ids[‘ multi’][$i], current_time( ‘timestamp’, true ) + apply_filters( ‘Wc_Captcha_time’, Wc_Captcha()->options[‘general’][‘time’] ), COOKIEPATH, COOKIE_DOMAIN ); * I truly appreciate all the work that goes into creating such a plugin and would be very happy to leave a glowing review except that I removed a different plugin to add yours for the same reason. Huge logfiles of “headers already sent” without being able to fix it. Please if it is possible, let me know how I can fix this. WP is v 5.5, PHP is v. 7.4 * I believe in supporting responsive plugins!

I have just been deleting the error logs. I will update and let you know, but I certainly appreciate your work. * More later! Thank you! 2fer * Thread Starter [2fer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dominolady/) * (@dominolady) * [5 years, 5 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/php-error-408/#post-13762561) * I have not seen any update to the plugin, so nothing has changed and I still see error logs that I need to delete. If you have updated the plugin, it is not showing up here at wordpress.org. * It used to work with ContactForm7, now it doesn’t work there either but that is because they have changed to integrate the Google ReCaptcha and I would not inflict that on anyone. * Thread Starter [2fer](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dominolady/) * (@dominolady) * [5 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/php-error-408/#post-13856338) * I have updated the status of this question to “unresolved” because I am still not seeing any resolution and if there has been a fix I would appreciate being able to fix it. Telling me it has been fixed without providing a way for users of the plugin to change it really has done nothing to fix it at all. I would be happy to mark this problem as “resolved” but not yet. Nothing has changed. Your wordpress.org plugin page shows: `Last updated: 5 months ago` so if it has been updated, please make the update available. * Plugin Author [Md Rimu Chowdhury](https://wordpress.org/support/users/webcource/) * (@webcource) * [5 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/php-error-408/#post-13913076) * sorry for late.

The php error is still there. The cause is, that setcookie() defines a cookie to be sent along with the rest of the HTTP headers. Like other headers, cookies must be sent before any output from your script ( this is a protocol restriction). This requires that you place calls to this function prior to any output, including and tags as well as any whitespace, see: [https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2658083/setcookie-cannot-modify-header-information-headers-already-sent](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2658083/setcookie-cannot-modify-header-information-headers-already-sent) Viewing 9 replies - 1 through 9 (of 9 total) The topic ‘PHP error’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/wc-captcha_e6e6e6.svg) * [WC Captcha](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wc-captcha/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wc-captcha/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wc-captcha/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wc-captcha/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wc-captcha/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wc-captcha/reviews/) ## Tags * [headers already sent](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/headers-already-sent/) * [php-error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic-tag/php-error/) * 9 replies * 3 participants * Last reply from: [BugfreeSystems](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bugfreesystems/) * Last activity: [5 years ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/php-error-408/#post-14345746) * Status: resolved
