But trying to install another instance would only cause you bigger issues, as there is no upgrader...

You probably need to emulate a lower version (although, looking at the MOD package, it shouldn't...)

Sounds like he has it installed from and earlier version, so the uninstall isn't showing.
Check out this great sites.

Try to emulate a lower version, until the "uninstall" link shows up again ;-)

i have tried that and it didn't work
so what next in line to try then ?

Go to your forum root via FTP, folder Packages. There you should find the package for this mod. Download it into your computer, unpack it and find the file "package-info.xml"

The supported versions should be easy to understand there. Check for those. If you are unsure, please attach the file here. Do not attach the package, please.

here you go
i've tried emulating other versions but still no luck

glennmckenna

so whats the verdict
what should i do now ???

margarett

Should work, that's the file from the MOD itself... And I just installed and uninstalled without issues in my test board...

Or... That's the version you uploaded, not the version previously existent (and that you have installed). You should try to get the previous package, the one you installed first.

I have this installed on a SMF 2.0.7 forum.  I've had it installed for about a week.  It appears to be working properly.

I've had 2 spam users register in that time.  (I was getting 1 or 2 spam registrations per week BEFORE I installed this.)

Is there something I may have done wrong that is keeping this from being effective?

margarett

If those are human spammers, there isn't much you can do...

I, too, am having problems with KeyCAPTCHA (version 2.5) on SMF 2.07. We updated from a very old version of SMF (under which we installed KeyCaptcha originally) and have been keeping up with the point updates. Because of the incompatibility issue between KeyCAPTCHA 2.5 and SMF 2.07, we disabled new user registrations a while ago because NO new users is the lesser of two evils. The time has come where we want to turn user registrations back on, but need to fix this problem.

FWIW, we did not use any type of emulator to install KeyCAPTACHA since it was installed under an old version of SMF.

I have read through this thread, and, as has been mentioned earlier, I do not have the "uninstall" option available to me on the Package Manager desktop. Only List Files and Delete.

I have downloaded the package that is on my server and inspected the package-info.xml file - the highest revision level is 2.04. We have 2.07 installed.

I know that someone mentioned emulating an earlier version in order to "Trick" KeyCAPTCHA into displaying the uninstall option. However, when I go to the Customize section of this SMF site, I am not able to find an emulator that is compatible with SMF 2.07. The only emulator I find is Version Emulate and it is only compatible with versions up to SMF 1.1.18.

All I want to do is uninstall KeyCAPTCHA version 2.5 and then do a clean install of version 2.7. Can I just go into the package-info.xml file, edit <uninstall for="2.0 - 2.0.4"> to be <uninstall for="2.0 - 2.0.7">, and "be done with it?" Will that give me the uninstall button?

Please help...  Thanks.

Hi!

How can I use the free version (Free CAPTCHA) ?

After register, I don't see this option.

Thanks!

edit.: Ok, I see, this is the default settings...

I have small problem with the installer, because no "Core theme" for me, but this is don't big problem for me...

I'm having problems with the mod. It's not showing up on the registration page in the Writer theme (see attachment). How do I fix this?

Looks like your theme was not modified on plugin installation

Solved.
After plugin installation field "Visual verification image to display" in Anti-spam settings should be set to some value except "None"
