I am with problem on registration, my image verification did not appear. Do I need to CHMOD to fix it and how or do I need to do something else?
Thanks for watching!
Tomy,
You should know better by now... we need ACTUAL INFORMATION, not just a generic description.
The image verification did not appear?
What does that mean?
Did the SPACE appear, with a red [X] of a missing image? Did the image not even show?
Did you configure it to show the CAPTCHA in the first place?
are the image files present on the server?
Dear @Kindred,
Sorry for lack of information. I am attaching the captured image on my screen with area in red, it shows like a broken link to image, I did not find any folder contains image files for these tasks of verification on my host.
Thank you for your reply.
Well, that would be pretty clear then... If the images are missing from the server, they can not be displayed when called...
Find the images in the installation archive file and put them on yournserver
Could you tell me the path to them? I could not find the images in the installation folder. There's no images folder related to these verify task even in installation package as image attached?
Under themes/default... Not sure if the exact subdirectory...
But, if you right click on the missing image icon and look at the properties, it should tell you exactly where it is looking for the image..
I think SMF 2.1 not using static images to show captcha, its using font to generate. So try to give 777 to fonts folder under default (themes).

actually just like in 2.0 there are both options depending on server config. the images are located in the Themes/default/fonts/<fontname> folder.
That one is not a static image, which makes me wonder what's in the error log and/or run file_check.php
I have CHMOD 777 for folder fonts as above advice but images still not appears.
I also have more question:
+ if CHMOD 777 like that will raise more risk for my forum?
+ in folder /fonts I see more than one type of font: anon (folder), consola (folder), AnonymousPro (file), ConsolaMono (file), Pfennig (file). How I know which font my forum is using and how to change it?
+ What is url to "both options depending on server config" which @Illori has commented to?
My forum url is http://www.joomviet.com it is default as what are on download page (I did not change any code). My error_log as below:
[01-Jan-2015 15:58:51 Asia/Jakarta] PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in /home/XXXXXXXX/public_html/Sources/Load.php(2647) : eval()'d code on line 1087

Thanks for your time.
So, nobody knows how to fix verification image on this case?
Please disable template evaluation then check if these errors appear again (with a different presentation, which is what we need ;) )
Admin --> Maintenance --> Server Settings --> General --> Disable evaluation of templates (check it and save)

use this mod http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=3824
Firstly, he's using 2.1 and the mod hasn't been tested in any fashion against 2.1.
Secondly whatever is causing it to break will probably continue to be broken even using my CAPTCHA mod.
Solution of @Margarett can solve my first problem, but when I do it, my UTF8 fonts turn into something looks like this

and I can not read them. When I remove the tick and save, it shows back to which I can read again:

But this is one way of solving, I am trying to fix further more on this way.
Margarett's solution wasn't a solution but trying to get more information to actually fix the problem.
however, your error is interesting, since AFAIK, disabling the eval should
a) have no effect on the images showing or not showing
b) have no effect on the utf-8 characters
