 * This is not a question but a solution.
    FIRST Recaptcha v2 does not work with
   older site keys!
 * I have had problems logging into WordPress when I chose ReCaptcha V2.
    I received
   an error message “invalid domain for site key”
 * I could not login into WordPress. Found a work around on a WordPress forum here:
   
   [https://wordpress.org/support/topic/recaptcha-login?replies=7](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/recaptcha-login?replies=7)
 * It said:
    If you want to deactivate it, do as suggested above – use FTP to access
   the files on the server and rename that folder inside the plugins folder –
 * wp-content
    plugins recaptcha-login – RENAME or DELETE THIS FOLDER
 * It seems ReCaptcha v2 does not work with older site keys. I had to delete the
   old one and get new keys for my site. Then go back into WordPress and change 
   the site keys in all the settings and plugins that requested it to the new site
   keys.
 * To be safe save the old and new keys in a document in case you need them. It 
   also makes it easy to retrieve to paste into places you need it.
 * Hope this helps people with similar problems with ReCaptcha v2. Hope it saves
   you from the headache I had piecing together a solution.
 * Good luck!
