Update will be coming soon. Thank you for your patience:) Lisa * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-guest-post/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-guest-post/) Viewing 15 replies - 1 through 15 (of 20 total) 1 [2](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-guest-post-plugin-working-on-captcha-fix/page/2/?output_format=md) [→](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-guest-post-plugin-working-on-captcha-fix/page/2/?output_format=md) * [Jacktionman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jacktionman/) * (@jacktionman) * [14 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-guest-post-plugin-working-on-captcha-fix/#post-2574788) * I found that if you open the wordpressguestpost.php file and replace any calls for the plugin (plugins/wordpressguestpost/) to plugins/wordpress-guest-post/ it works just fine. * Seems like the file is calling a directory which doesn’t exist/is misnamed! * [AlexViken](https://wordpress.org/support/users/alexviken/) * (@alexviken) * [14 years, 2 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-guest-post-plugin-working-on-captcha-fix/#post-2574797) * Downloaded this through the plugin page in wordpress today and it’s still a bit bugged.. * I fixed it by replacing all occurrences of “wordpressguestpost/” with “wordpress- guest-post/” replacing “plugins/wordpressguestpost/” didn’t fix it in my case. * [heydluv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/heydluv/) * (@heydluv) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-guest-post-plugin-working-on-captcha-fix/#post-2574801) * How I fixed: - 1. Make the edits to the files paths as described in previous posts from above - 2. Download most current release of Securimage PHP Captcha [http://www.phpcaptcha.org/download/](http://www.phpcaptcha.org/download/) - 3. **Delete **the securimage folder contained within the plugin - 4. Upload the new securimage folder - 5. Copy the code from securimage_example.php and paste into securimage_show. php * [heydluv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/heydluv/) * (@heydluv) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-guest-post-plugin-working-on-captcha-fix/#post-2574802) * Almost forgot: Remove the external links to the swf file audio file. They are located near bottom of wordpressguestposts.php * [prontoskipper](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prontoskipper/) * (@prontoskipper) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-guest-post-plugin-working-on-captcha-fix/#post-2574810) * Heydluv, can you post diff between your “wordpressguestposts.php” and original one? * Moderator [Ipstenu (Mika Epstein)](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ipstenu/) * (@ipstenu) * 🏳️‍🌈 Advisor and Activist * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-guest-post-plugin-working-on-captcha-fix/#post-2574813) * heydluv, please post that code on PASTEBIN.COM and not here. It’s making the spam checker have a hissy fit. * [heydluv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/heydluv/) * (@heydluv) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-guest-post-plugin-working-on-captcha-fix/#post-2574814) * The Modified code is here: [http://pastebin.com/u36hUeg5](http://pastebin.com/u36hUeg5) * [prontoskipper](https://wordpress.org/support/users/prontoskipper/) * (@prontoskipper) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-guest-post-plugin-working-on-captcha-fix/#post-2574821) * many thanks, works fine * [imoneycoach](https://wordpress.org/support/users/imoneycoach/) * (@imoneycoach) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-guest-post-plugin-working-on-captcha-fix/#post-2574829) * I tried these fixes and made sure I’ve got the 2.6 version, but I still do not see the CAPTCHA image. Any help or advice would be much appreciated. The page I am trying to put this on is [http://www.imoneycoach.com/blog/guest-author/](http://www.imoneycoach.com/blog/guest-author/)– Thanks! * [heydluv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/heydluv/) * (@heydluv) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-guest-post-plugin-working-on-captcha-fix/#post-2574830) * If you want, just replace your code with the code in the pastebin link, above. Or just make sure that your code matches lines 784 & 785. Hope that helps. * [imoneycoach](https://wordpress.org/support/users/imoneycoach/) * (@imoneycoach) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-guest-post-plugin-working-on-captcha-fix/#post-2574831) * Unfortunately that doesn’t seem to have worked. I used the pastebin code and put it in the wordpressguestposts.php and updated the file (said it was successful), but the image still doesn’t show up. Any other ideas that might work? I’ve looked at other plugins for guest posting, but this one has everything that I want in it. * [heydluv](https://wordpress.org/support/users/heydluv/) * (@heydluv) * [14 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-guest-post-plugin-working-on-captcha-fix/#post-2574832) * Your is missing [http://www.imoneycoach.com](http://www.imoneycoach.com).

It works great with those changes. I’d add that I had mine in a sub-directory and had to add that to the beginning of the path for the captcha. * [bruceleebee](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bennygill/) * (@bennygill) * [13 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-wordpress-guest-post-plugin-working-on-captcha-fix/#post-2574859) * I have tried all the above but nothing is working! * Can you please help me.
