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

[holyworld]

Thanks!

I've removed a pluging called "Contact" which is using Captcha as well.. this might have cause the trouble.

Problem is not solved yet. Now instead of a red cross I do get the word "image".

Any hints?

Thanks a lot!

PS1: Is there a way to use the plugin "contact" together with the Captcha plugin? Probably by just changing the order as you suggested..
PS2: The contact plugin by Franzt works fine.. the image is being displayed correctly...

Cheers

Your image is corrupted by a plugin that is injecting code to all pages
First of all disable all plugins except CAPTCHA and check if it's working then go ahead and install others and check

Is there a way to use the plugin "contact" together with the Captcha plugin? Probably by just changing the order as you suggested..

Sure , there shouldn't be a major problem with that

[holyworld]

Thanks for the quick response.

--> removed ALL plugins (actually I have done this before as well)

1) Installed V1.9   --> OK
2) installed V2.0 --> OK
3) installed V3.0 --> NOT OK, red cross

reinstalled and still the red cross... no other plugins are installed.. and the Captch plugin is original. The table exists in the DB... 
All customization I have done is based on the normal framework.

right now I have installed V2.0... but would love to switch to V3.0

any other hints where to look?

Thanks!!

[Sami]

just copy captcha.php from v 3.0 to your gallery root and let me know

[holyworld]

done, incl. switched on debug mode.

thanks

Sorry but you need to create cpg133_plugin_captcha table too
here is the code

Code Select Expand


CREATE TABLE  `cpg132_plugin_captcha` (
  `time` datetime NOT NULL default '0000-00-00 00:00:00',
  `ip_addr` tinytext NOT NULL,
  `code` char(32) NOT NULL default ''
) TYPE=MyISAM COMMENT='Used to store captcha code and user ip';

you should run it under phpmyadmin by selecting your gallery databse

[holyworld]

OK, table created successfully!

The capcha.php still return the same text: "image".

hmnn I am really wondering, why V2.0 and the Contact plugin do work.. and V3.0 not...

[Sami]

Pm me
- An admin account of your gallery
- A ftp account
if it's okay with youand I'll take a look at that

[Sami]

@holyworld: That wasn't (directly) captcha plugin issue
you had an empty line at the very first of themes/unmomento/theme.php and that cause captcha image break
I fixed it for you

This kinds of mistakes may effect some other functionality of gallery as well (ZIP download of favorite)

[holyworld]

Indeed it is fixed.. for both issues!!

Thanks a lot for this fantastic help!

Cheers

PS I see now what price has to be payed, when you customize these themes too much!... I had issues as well with Highslide.. but its working now....

I tried upgrading from 1.8 to 3.0, and
1. the captcha image didn't show up.
2. I got a critical database error when I tried to log back in. I had to delete the plugin in order to login.

[Sami]

- Enable debug and post actual error (not debug info) here
- Post a link to gallery

I upgraded from 1.7 to 3.0, installation was ok and also plugin is working as expected. There is only a small problem with ecards, if you preview an ecard the "textarea" with the message in the preview is empty. I fixed the problem by adding the following line:

Code Select Expand

$message = get_post_var('message');
after

Code Select Expand

case 'ecard.php':

in function captcha_main()
I don't know whether this is the correct way to do it but now it works.

Thanks for pointing that out I'll add it to next version

Hi!

I installed this plugin, but the image verification IMAGE isn't loading. What am I missing here?

Do not forget to put captcha.php at the root of your coppermine.

3.Copy captcha.php to gallery root

[Joachim Müller]

Don't post debug_output unless requested. Posting a link to your gallery might help more.
