elseif (empty($modSettings['allow_guestAccess']) && $user_info['is_guest'] && (!isset($_REQUEST['action']) || !in_array($_REQUEST['action'], array('coppa', 'login', 'login2', 'register', 'register2', 'reminder', 'activate', 'help', 'smstats', 'mailq', 'verificationcode', 'openidreturn'))))

Did you make the change ?? still not seeing the images on your Test Forum..

[SAW_Cracker]

I was getting just a string of the picutes with no sliders so I tried to remove it and now I have an error on my registration page I cant seem to get rid of.


Fatal error: Call to undefined function notCaptcha_AddToRegisterForm() in /home/canesfor/public_html/Sources/Load.php(2172) : eval()'d code on line 378

I use the test forum to make sure mods work before placing them on my true forum. Since it appeared that this mod didn't work at all, I went to this thread. Now that it is known to only break when guests are not allowed to view the board (which is only set up on my test forum), I am not worried about it, and will use it on my forums.

So on my test forum I'll probably leave it as it is until the mod is updated.

[aw06]

ok kool

[SAW_Cracker]

Can I get some help on removing this mod? I accidently hit delete instead of uninstall and now its really broken

[fr3aker]

uploaded the fixed version of this mod, v1.04

Version 1.04 - 13.02.2011
   ! fixed no images showing when guests are not allowed to see the forum
   ? backup your notcaptcha_config.php and newly added pictures, uninstall and install the new version

@ SAW_Cracker:
sounds like the index.template.php didnt get modified (as described on the mods page)

to remove the error, search in your Register.template.php for the string "notCaptcha_AddToRegisterForm();" and remove the whole notCaptcha code block. I cannot tell you why SMF didnt roll back this action.

SMF creates a backup of your forum before installing a new mod (and even before uninstalling an existing one?). It is placed in Packages/backups. Simply restore the backup and everything should work again

You will have to manually reverse all the changes the mod did ... what version of smf are you using ??

[SAW_Cracker]

Thank you so much not sure why but the mod didnt work in tinyportal SMF 2.0 RC5 all I got was a straight line of pictures. no slider

[xrunner]

OK, got the latest and it works! Thanks for that!

Did you add the changes to the mod site ?? when i select 1.1.13 and parse,. i don't see any additional changes for index.php

[fr3aker]

this normally happens when the css/js code is not included.

there might have been a problem while modifying your index.template.php


@aw06:
check the first change of the index.php, it's a very small one

[aw06]

I'm guessing you made the change differently form how you advised here ?

the parser says:
Find:

'activate', 'smstats', 'help', 'verificationcode'
Add After:

, 'notCaptcha'

(for SMF 1.1.x)

[aw06]

o ok, gotcha ... updated...

[belzerg]

"can't open file" message on white screen upon installation. It cannot create a directory somewhere or what is it related to? "test" folder is present in Packages and notCaptcha_v1.04.zip is 777

[fr3aker]

this error appears when the script was unable to write the config file (notcaptcha/notcaptcha_config.php), so there are permission problems with the notcaptcha folder.

To manually generate the config, ste the permissions of the notcaptcha folder at least to 775, extract the file "generate_config.php" from the zip archive, add the line "$boarddir = '.';" at the beginning of this file, upload it to your forum's root directory and run it once. Afterwards you can delete the generate_config.php.

Else you can simply upload the config file manually:

you should only change the value of $modSettings['notCaptcha']['nc_cookie_enc'] to something unique.

Just downloaded and installed v1.04 of the mod, but with my theme (in which I only changed the colours, so I don't even have a Register.template.php file, but just let the default one be used), I get eight pictures and no sliders.  I do have a few other add-ons installed, but if I switch back to the "SMF Default Theme - Core," I get three pictures and the sliders ARE there.

For what would I need to look to find whatever is causing this problem?

Thank you.
