Hello,

I'm using the latest 1.4.10 version, and i'm having trouble finding the lines of codes that you say that I have to edit on the theme.php file. I'm talking about your instructions that say...

Add

Code:
'{CONFIRM}' => $lang_display_comments['confirm'],

just after

Code:
'{COMMENT}' => $lang_display_comments['comment'],


I can't find that anyware on the theme.php file. Any help would be gladly apreciated.

Thanks!

~Jorge~

To WebJorge: read the posts before yours.. about page 2. It explains this.
I still need help for my problem, though.
Please help!

@etnies: The captcha image is coming fine. The only place which might not be properly edited is db_input.php (which checks the input code against the image code). Attach your db_input.php file with next post.

Okay, thanks Abbas.
I attached my db_input to this post.

You had edited the file in the wrong place. I corrected it and the modified file is attached. Replace your exisisting db_input.php with this one and lets see whether it works or not.

I replaced my dp_input.php with the one you gave me.
It didn't cause any errors until I tried to submit the comment, then it gave me this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/vanne/public_html/pictures/db_input.php on line 839

Just wanted to say thanks for an excellent mod. After reading the original posts and the replies, I was able to get it successfully implemented on my site. Hopefully, this'll be the end of my days deleting comment spam.

Some of the mod html caused html validation to fail.

I changed:
    <input type="text" name="confirmCode" size="5" class="textinput"> <img src="captcha.php" align="middle">

to:
    <input type="text" name="confirmCode" size="5" class="textinput" /> <img src="captcha.php" align="middle" alt="captcha image" />

Hi

Just an advice: Use the "plugin manager" to install it. Then it works fine  :D

I had a lot of trouble getting it right. I think it's the theme-modification which is hard to get right.

It's sad that we have to implement such plugins to get rid of spam - but on the other hand it's great, that people like Abbas Ali provide us with the tool to fight it. Thanks  ;D

Have a nice weekend

The captcha plugin and the captcha mod are two different things. Please keep comments on the plugin version to the thread that discusses the plugin.

Help new the bug is not present letters in a picture
A "bug" is something that is wrong with the mod code. Yours may be an implementation error as well. You appear to require to be logged in before being able to post comments. Subsequently, you should post a non-admin test user account.
