Hi, after updating Concrete the captcha is not working and it gives me a blank screen with the message Verifying that you are not a robot… that doesn’t go away. It doesn’t allow me to edit the page either.  
Can someone help?  
Thank you!

Hi @byvictoria - are you using SecurImage or ReCaptcha for the captcha service?

Hi Evan,

It looks like it was something related to cache, because it got solved by itself. I was using ReCaptcha and after the core update I got that blank screen in the contact page. So I changed the captcha method to Securimage, which didn’t work, and some time afterwards back to ReCaptcha, and the next day the page was working again.

Thank you for your reply!  
V.

Hi Evan, How are you? I tried to update the Grand Gallery add in, but the environment keeps saying that I have installed Grand Gallery (2.0.4) instead of the last version that I downloaded and installed manually in the server, I was wondering if you could help me. Thank you as always!

Your environment info shows all the concrete caches turned on. While developing a site, I always turn all caching off so these things don’t drive me crazy. Even host servers sometimes have their own caching schemes that need to be turned off.
