 * Hi,
    I have enabled reCaptcha on the wp-admin page. Removed my IP address from
   whitelisted, etc. Recatpach form is visible but still I can login without it 
   as login button is active.

 * Hi! I don’t understand you. Please explain what do you mean by this: “I have 
   enabled reCaptcha on the wp-admin page”?

 * OK. Sorry for that. I was in rush. Simply I have enabled the captcha everywhere
   it is possible with this plug-in. Then I have removed all ip adresses from whitelist.
   Then I went to [https://site.pl/wp-admin/](https://site.pl/wp-admin/). And there
   was reCaptacha module as expected. I have put my user name and password for amin
   panel and clikced on login button. I have expected to see an error that captach
   is not valid or resolved. Anything, but instead I was logged in. Of course the
   was a log entry with information that captcha was not resolved. Super, but why
   to have captcha when I can login without it. I noticed that it blocked my access
   after n attempts. But it’s not good solution.
