Code snippet activation
Hi Hasan
Following WordPress SAAS 2.0 Course Adding a Basic Captcha
I created the 2 snippets where I copied and pasted the codes you provided
A strange thing happened when I was trying to activate them.
It allows only 1 on them to activate at the same time, the other one when trying to active, give me an error.
please help

It happens sometime, is there any snippets with similar function names?
Refresh the page, and try enabling again.

Hi Hasan,
Following your training, I asked ChatGPT and got the conflict resolved—thanks!
This is ChatGPT’s reply:
The reason you cannot activate both snippets at the same time in WordPress is because they define the same functions and hooks, which leads to function name conflicts and duplicate REST route registrations.
🔍 What’s the conflict?
Both snippets define the same function names:-
generate_simple_captcha() -
verify_captcha() -
generate_in_json()
And both register the same REST route:
register_rest_route(‘api/v1’, ‘/idea-generator’, […])
This causes a “function already declared” or “route already registered” conflict when WordPress tries to activate the second snippet
