Captcha (Visual Confirmation) for comments/registration/reporting/login/ecard

[suwii]

OK first problem the image verification thing shows up even when the 'Administrators' group is under $CAPTCHA_DISABLE array! So everytime I try to login to my Admin account I can't coz I can't see the image! Hence I have to delete the captcha folder log in then restore the folder. Sorted it out silly me

Secondly why isn't the image showing up? Please help thanks!

Please Do not PM me next time .

Requirement:
===========
- GD 2.x (2.0.28 or later is recommended) with Freetype support

- What is your php version?
- GD version ?
- is freetype supported ?
Enable debug mode and let me know , I'll check it ASAP .

Also Don't forget to upgrade to 1.4.14 ASAP , there is a XSS vulnerability on 1.4.13 read this for more info:

[suwii]

ok PHP version 4.4.7
GD version 2.0.28
but cant find the freetype support (where do i look for this? under phpinfo as well?) so maybe I don't have it?
ok will enable debug now for all users

P.S. Will update tomorrow after my exam heeeheh

I'm also having a freetype issue. I'm using php with gd, but cannot find anything on the freetype webpage to install it correctly in a windows environment.
Any tips would be greatly appreciated. Oh and I did do the update (xss)

[Sami]

@suwii:
You should have something like this on your phpinfo :

Code Select Expand


GD Support enabled
GD Version bundled (2.0.28 compatible)
FreeType Support enabled
FreeType Linkage with freetype
FreeType Version 2.1.9

if you don't have freetype support then ask your host to enable it
@chowland
this is not relatd to this topic nor this forum
BTW you may need to install new version of GD on your server
check this:

On Windos-driven servers, you just uncomment the corresponding option in PHP's ini file (if the server is yours to administer). Self-hosting is not recommended though, nor do we provide support for webserver setup. Please don't clutter this thread with webserver setup issues. This plugin has some pre-requisites. If you don't meet them, fix this first (looking for help somewhere else).

thanks for the great plugin!

one little issue which i think is due to our server but if anyone could help i would be grateful

on our gallery since installing plugin it says "This is sample data returned from plugin ""."

[Nibbler]

[freshclubbing]

[Sami]

Hello Sami,

  In one of my Gallerys, i found a curious issue ! (it do'nt work)

All Captcha 3.0 was correctly installed inside "plugins/captcha/", and Captcha.php placed on the Gallery's root.
Unfortunately, like other CPG's Users the IMG code do not appear at all.

But at the same time, if i want to open directly Captcha.php (/CPG-root/captcha.php) only the text "/CPG-root/captcha.php" appear on my screen.
Now, from this blank page, if i want to view the "Page Properties" her weight is 2.69 Ko (2750 octets) !

2.69ko just for a small URL on my screen, it's totally weird !
Then, this page's source code i'm opening is the JPEG image code
See the first line of this code source :
           blablabla CREATOR: gd-jpeg v1.0 (using IJG JPEG v62), default quality blablabla

I think the generated JPEG is wrong! but my GD is good :

Code Select Expand

GD
GD Support                 enabled
GD Version             2.0 or higher
FreeType Support enabled
FreeType Linkage with freetype
T1Lib Support           enabled
GIF Read Support enabled
GIF Create Support enabled
JPG Support            enabled
PNG Support           enabled
WBMP Support          enabled

Do you see this issue before ?

Check for whitespace before the headers are sent.

[Sami]

As Nibbler already said , you have something (plugin or mod) that loads before this plugin , this plugin/mod inject whitespace or some text to captcha.php which makes this issue

Hi all
I'm trying to install Captcha (version 3)

I've only two plugins : Captcha and Contact Plugin but captcha doesn't works if Contact Plugin is installed. Instead of image, the red cross appears...

But i need both 

If Contact Plugin is (re) enabled Captch doesn't works anymore...

I've tried to find blank spaces in my files but i can't find them.
Could you help me
And sorry for my bad english 
cpg has been upgraded with last version

[Sami]
