[Plugin: SI CAPTCHA Anti-Spam] CAPTCHA image (text not image)

to help I need a URL

Hi Mike-

I’m getting the same results as podictionary. It was working up through 2.0.4 but died with 2.2.1.
Demo URL is: https://www.ampsite.com/wp2

I currently have all other plugins deactivated. Freetype isn’t on but it was working OK with GD.

Any sugestions?

Thanks
Karl

Karl,

Your PHP does not have freetype support. That is a problem it can normally workaround by detecting that and using GD fonts instead. It looks like that part is broke in this version. I am working on a fix. maybe tonight, if not then tomorrow.

Mike

Karl, fixed it!

= 2.2.2 =
– (23 Nov 2009) – Added 5 random CAPTCHA fonts
– Fixed fail over to GD Fonts on the CAPTCHA when TTF Fonts are not enabled in PHP (it was broken)

PS the fonts will not look as good, the catptcha is weaker when you do not have TTF fonts enabled because they do not have the warpage.

Please update again, 2.2.2 was broke

= 2.2.3 =
– (23 Nov 2009) – Fix completely broke CAPTCHA, sorry about that

Hi Mike. I downloaded the latest, installed in mu, moved the main file so I got global control.

All checks pass. Folders were 775. (Also tried 777)

Still not getting the image to show up.

Can be seen at https://stealthfiction.com/pre-launch-status/

Any ideas?

Thanks Mike
Sorry to be away for a week. Upgraded to your 2.2.3 but still no joy.

Since https://www.guidegatineau.ca is a production site I’ve pulled the plugin for the moment.

I did take an image of the not-working page though, plus the source code for same and have them zipped here if you care to look.
https://media.libsyn.com/media/p2peak/GatineauGuide.zip

when the image does not show up, view the source and see if the path is wrong. If it is please give me an example of how it is wrong.

I have the flu so I could be be offline for 24 hours. Will work on this when I feel better.

stealthfiction,

I see internal server error even with the readme.txt so if you still have the folders CHMOD to 777 that may be too high, put back to 755.

https://stealthfiction.com/wp-content/plugins/si-captcha-for-wordpress/readme.txt

then see if this test works:
https://stealthfiction.com/wp-content/plugins/si-captcha-for-wordpress/captcha-secureimage/test/index.php

if it does not work after you do that look at the PHP error logs.

https://stealthfiction.com/wp-content/mu-plugins/si-captcha-for-wordpress/captcha-secureimage/securimage_show.php?sid=6945179a73107085b023134a6d956765

That is the path I am getting for the image that isn’t showing up.

Everything is working now. I made the mistake of setting the folders to 775 instead of 755. Once I fixed that the problem went away. So if anyone is having that issue, double check the permissions.

Thank you Mike for your support and for this great plugin.

Thanks Mike
Hope your flu is passing/passed

path looks right but what do I know…
src=”https://guidegatineau.ca/wp-content/mu-plugins/si-captcha-for-wordpress/captcha-secureimage/securimage_show.php?sid=c6df2534ae9913f46294c8d64cda637d”

I see the securimage_show.php at that location, I also see the …mu-plugins/si-captcha-for-wordpress/captcha-secureimage/test/index.php is in place but when I try the test it tells me page not found.

podictionary,

I am all better, thanks. It was just a 24 hour flu.

I think you have a permalinks or permission problem.
I see internal server error even with the readme.txt
Check the CHMOD on the folders, maybe set to 755

While setting up SI CAPTCHA plugin. I accidently enable the captcha on my login.php form, now I cannot log in because I cannot view the captcha image on my log in screen. Need help!

FTP into your blog directory, then delete the si-captcha-for-wordpress folder in the plugins folder. Then the plugin will be disabled and you can log in.
