Comment (by darshitrajyaguru97):

 == Testing Summary ==
 I was able to reproduce the CAPTCHA issue on the Jobs/Feedback form where
 the CAPTCHA image fails to load.

 === **Environment ===
 * Browser: Chrome (latest)
 * OS: Windows
 * Logged-in state: Logged out

 === **Steps to Reproduce ===
 - Visit the Jobs/Feedback page
 - Scroll to the form section
 - Observe the CAPTCHA image area

 === **Actual Result ===
 The CAPTCHA image does not load, and the browser console shows a server
 error:

 {{{
 GET /wp-content/plugins/si-contact-form/captcha/securimage_show.php?...
 500 (Internal Server Error)
 }}}

 The error originates from:

 {{{
 fscf_captcha_refresh @ fscf-scripts.js
 }}}

 === **Expected Result ===
 The CAPTCHA image should render correctly without any console errors.

 === **Notes ===
 * The issue appears to be caused by a 500 Internal Server Error from
 `securimage_show.php`.
 * This may indicate a server-side issue (PHP error, missing dependency, or
 misconfiguration in the CAPTCHA library).
 * Since the request fails at the server level, the frontend script cannot
 recover or display the CAPTCHA.

 === **Attachments ===
 Attached screenshot showing the console error and broken CAPTCHA
 rendering.
