Avatar Verification

[butchs]

Works great.  No more image errors on my system.

I tried to manually upgrade to version 1.0 final, and found some pieces of code twice in register.template.php, but when I deleted the double bits of code, I get a template parse error. I am unable to find the error so would you be so kind to take a look at the file and see if you can fix it?

original file is attached

Much appreciated!

edit: never mind: found the error. There was a } missing....
Could the double code in this file be the cause of the errors I've occasionally been getting before?

[JulesW]

I guess not as a I had 5 pages worth of errors this morning.

2: Invalid argument supplied for foreach()
File: /Sources/Subs-CaptchaAvatar.php
Line: 16

8: Undefined index: AvatarsToShow
File: /Sources/Subs-CaptchaAvatar.php
Line: 16

and

8: Undefined index: AvatarsToShow
File: /Sources/Subs-CaptchaAvatar.php
Line: 8

Any clue what I can do about it?

The old installation apparently failed. You will have to check again for code not being uninstalled properly.

[JulesW]

I've been going through all the files modified by this mod, but no more double code exists in the files.

Edit: maybe this helps: the URL that is causing these errors is:
/index.php?action=verificationsimages&avatar=e8e07b82ad9c11809688d23377628e01&type=2

and if I click it, it generates the errors again... but with different url:
/index.php?action=verificationsimages&avatar=e8e07b82ad9c11809688d23377628e01&type=2

I have 2 questions:

1. It says on the installation: "A Manual edit will be required for ALL themes (other than SMF Default Core Theme) which have a custom Register.template.php
If you don't perform the manual edit, nobody will be able to register using those themes."

I'm using RC2 Curve. So.. what is this edit I'm required to do? Or do I have to figure it out by myself?


2. In the option: "Folders from which to use avatars as verification", what format should I use?

/avatars/dogs ?
avatars/dogs ?
ht*p://mysite.com/avatars/dogs ?


Right now I only have numbers in boxes, no images, but the mod looks awesome. Thanks for posting it.

Only when your theme has its own register.template.php you have to manually edit it. You can use a package parser to see what edits to make. (Click on manual install instructions at the download site.)

Today I finally recreated the error myself. When I went to the registration page, I got the picture to match, but some of the pictures to choose from were big red crosses (screenshot: ), instead of the pictures to choose from. when if refreshed (F5) it gave me the normal page with 10 images, and I could proceed to the registration process.

I got a similar result(initial release) when the images were corrupt, so I only use the default avatars for this section.

[JulesW]

I pretty sure these images are not corrupt. (I've sent them to the modmaker earlier, and he checked them)

Also as a test: I put 10 image files in the default folder, and everything worked fine, but after I restarted the browser and refreshed a few times this was the result:

[Sabre™]

Oh yep.
Have you tried this with only the default avatars with the same result?

[JulesW]

Yes I have, same result (Only actors and musicians)

[Akyhne]

Sorry, atm I really don't feel like working on mods.

[JulesW]

I guess I have to accept the errors every once in a while, or remove the mod....

FYI: The same thing happens on a freshly installed forum (2.0rc2) with ONLY this mod installed, so I guess its not an incompatibility with other mods.

[Akyhne]

I can't create that error.

First visit to worldofgt.com:

What browser are you using?

[JulesW]

Epiphany

[Akyhne]

Stress tested the site with 4 browsers - Opera, Safari, Chrome and Firefox for 5 minutes. Didn't get an error once.

[JulesW]

Weird... If it only happens with Epiphany, it does explain why it happens only sporadically. Not a lot of people will use that browser. I'll see if I can get errors with another browser.
