Great Mod!
Thank you!

[chep]

It would be great if the captcha was only used for guests. Is that possible?

[rowedf]

It says it works for 1.1.4 but it errors on installation (relating to the modifications.english.php file)

@ rowedf

By the sound of it you simply have to do a manual installation of the mod. Generally if the installation via the Package Manager reports an error you should revert to a manual install...the following links should help you to do it:

Hey TrueSatan - thanks for the support. And thanks again vbgamer45 for the mod, it's great. 

I've been having a weird problem lately - the captcha images will sometimes show and sometimes not.    Any idea why that would be happening and how I could fix it ?   Thanks.  (running smf 1.1.4 w/TP and maybe 2 or 3 other mods which I can list later if it would be useful).

[TrueSatan]

Always a pleasure to help. If the images do show at all that makes me think that the files are OK (both the images and the code) and that it's a server issue...assuming that the problem occurs in a random way when doing exactly the same things. I can't shed much more light on it than that though...maybe vbgamer45 will have a suggestion for you.

[choloman05]

Hm. that's interesting. What do you think the issue w/the server could be?   

And now that I think about it and look back,  the captcha isn't showing and then not showing - one day it just stopped showing. So I went into my permissions to make sure I had captcha enabled in registration, I did, so I just changed the strength of the verification and then the images appeared again on the contact page.  Of course they only appeared for a little while, not even a whole day. 
But anyway, thanks for the help as usual TrueSatan and we'll see what vbgamer has to say.

[TrueSatan]

Well the image is controlled by GD (an additional image manipulation library for PHP) and I think that is where the problem you are having resides. My diagnosis would be that staff at your host may have altered settings after a few days of it running properly...maybe there was a server load they didn't like or some other reason...can't say. Perhaps your change in settings bypassed what they'd done and so it worked for a while until they caught up with it again...only your host would know for sure if that were the case.

How do I get the visual verification letters to show up?

[choloman05]

vbgamer - any say on the captcha issue?

[MinasC]

i just realised i don't have visual verification showing , which , as i understand , means i need to have GD enabled ! is that something i can do or do i have to ask my host to do it for me (and if so , what do i ask exactly) ?

thnx a lot !

[vbgamer45]

Ask your host to do to install the GD module for PHP located at http://www.php.net/gd

[MinasC]

will do , thnx a lot !

For me this mod works, but when I try to test it sending a message get everytime this error: The letters you typed don't match the letters that were shown in the picture.
But I know that I have typed the right letters.

[bnard]

me too...i also got the same error. i'm sure i typed in the correct letters

[shumar]

I have this problem when I have installed Advanced Visual Verification.
When I uninstall this, my problem is gone too.

[Neol]

Uninstalled and installed it again without errors, but still the same f*cking problem with the captcha. 

[shumar]

Obviously you didn't understand, but never mind.
Vbgamer, is there any possibility that change mail ?
I wish that emails from there come on email that is different than webmaster.
Is that possible...

Thank you.

[vbgamer45]

Yes you could do this you would need to change Sources/Contact.php and look for the webmaster email variable and change it to another email address of your choice.

I would still install it the only other thing you would need to do is edit the menu function on the index.template.php of the theme you are using in order to make it appear on the menu.

I Have the same error. What menu function should I add? thanks
