The "Visitor IP address" section said plugin 1.23.0 sends the visitor IP by default. That turns on IP matching, which rejects real visitors on sites behind Cloudflare or another proxy.

Plugin 1.24.0 (prosopo/procaptcha-wordpress-plugin#68) makes it an off-by-default "Visitor IP matching" setting. This rewrites the section to match:

  • where the setting is and what each option reads from (Cloudflare, X-Forwarded-For, REMOTE_ADDR);
  • a warning to pick only a header the site's proxy actually sets;
  • the filter's new ($ip, $remote_addr) arguments;
  • a note that 1.23.0 sent the IP by default.

Changed in all six languages. Merge once 1.24.0 is released.
