Thanks ladies,
tried it while not "logged in" and it left a comment to be moderated but would not work when "logged in". I'm sure I'd tried that before but not to worry. at least I know if you want to add a comment to one of your pages Don't Try When Logged In! :-)

Have you tried logging out from the Dashboard and opening your website just as a visitor would? I think this would be the best way to test if your comments are working. ~Marion

I honestly never tried, Mike. I think what I would try is a cold boot of the computer. I had a problem with something else and I had to totally shut down and restart. If nothing works, I think I'd file a support ticket. Good Luck!

I'm really not sure, I've been able to leave comments on my pages as a "test." They did go into moderation mode, but they also showed up on the page and I was able to go in and delete them. I wish I could offer more!

Why cant I add a comment to one of my pages?

I can see the image on both my siterubix sites e.g. http://liveinfreedom.siterubix.com/financial-independence/ but not on my own domain http://liveinfreedom.co.uk/wp-login.php

Woo Hoo problem sorted.
was able to rename the Captcha folder in my site at the host. That meant it couldn't be found when I opened my site. I was able to login and disable captcha from the WP dashboard. Then removed it altogether. Now my site is active again :-)
I could do this because my host had a utility called Web Explorer, it showed all the files in my site rather like Windows Explorer on my PC.
I might reinstall Captcha - But not on my Login page!

Thanks for your help everyone.

It's also good to know that your site can be edited directly.

The image that is showing on your login page is that of a broken link to the image file. I guess that the only way you can get back into your website is by requesting support from your hosting company. ~Marion

I don't use captcha on comments, Akisment takes care of spam. I use a different form with captcha for my contact page.

I was having a problem with Captcha and I put in a a support ticket. They realized I had more than 1 captcha plug in running and when I de activated one everything was fine.

Thanks Sandra, having the catpcha plugin on my login page prevents me from accessing the dashboard. Therefore I can't disable Captcha. If I cant access through FTP I think I'll have to speak to the hosts.

I see it on your WP sign-in page, but it's really tiny. It's this little symbol. Not sure what you're supposed to put in the box. If you can't get in there, maybe Tech Support can help. I learned something. I didn't even know you COULD put a captcha code on a sign-in page. Good Luck, Mike!

Yes there's a small image of a page but not the characters to enter in the code box. I'm looking into entering the site via FTP. On a WP forum they suggest using FTP and changing the Plugin folder name to disable the plugin. At least I will be able to get into the site and then work from there. Not being able to log in is a bit of a handicap :-(

Open a private window and go to your site. You may be able to see if from there.

Thanks but I still can't see anything except a sort of marker image where the code should be, even if i access the site directly rather than attempting to go through WP . Think I might sleep on it and look afresh tomorrow, especially if I'm going down the FTP route.

Every time I upload an image to my WP site there is always a thin boarder around it. e.g. http://liveinfreedom.co.uk/
How can I remove this boarder?

glad to here Carla cured your issue all the best

It might be because you are using a caption. The ads tend to get boxed when you add a caption. I could be wrong, but that's what I remember. Try removing the caption, update, refresh your page and see what happens.

Carla you are a star!
That's one thing I'd not tried.
Removed the caption and - No Border! Woo Hoo!

Oops sorry about the "a" in border in my question, you must think I'm taking in lodgers! ;-)

LOL! No, not quite. I give everybody the benefit of a bad day or a few mistakes, including ME!!! Glad it worked, Mike!
