HI

Joomla 3.6.2

Tried using latest version of Chronoforms V4 and using the following code but can;t get the captcha image tpo show

<div style="" id="chrono_verification1_container_div" class="ccms_form_element cfdiv_text">
<input type="text" name="chrono_verification" value="" title="" class="chrono_captcha_input" size="5" maxlength="5" />
{chronocaptcha_img}
<div class="clear"></div>
<div id="error-message-chrono_verification"></div>
</div>

Also tried in Chronoforms 5 using the wizard to build a test form but the image doesn't show then either.

Any thoughts?

Hi Paul,

It looks like a server limitation - the image creates a 500 Server Error. There is a FAQ that helps to debug this but it's probably simpler just to use one of the other Captcha methods. Google NoCaptcha is popular and seems effective.

Hi Bob

Thanks for getting back to me although it seems strange as I run many instances of Chronoforms on the same server.

I'll check out the FAQ and some other oprions

Paul

still having problem with this on some sites but not others.

for example at http://www.west5web-test.co.uk/lac-de-villedon/booking

Are there any instructions for adding Google NoCaptacha to the form?

Thanks, Paul

Hi Paul,

Please see this video for adding ReCatpcha to a CFv4 form - but if this is a new site it might be better to use CFv5 or v6 which have it built in.

The link to the Captcha image gives a 403 message - hard to say more, it is still probably a server limitation.

Bob

Thanks Bob

As I already have the forms created in CFv4, it might be easier just to add it manually rather than recreate eveyting in CFv5 or 6

As i didn't use the wizard to create the code, what would i need to replace the following with to get the recaptcha to show in place of the old catpcha?

<input style="border: 1px solid #577086; background: #ffffff; padding:7px;" maxlength="5" size="5" class="chrono_captcha_input" title="" type="text" value="" name="chrono_verification" />
{chronocaptcha_img}<div class="clear"></div><div id="error-message-chrono_verification"></div>

Sorry to be a pest

Paul

For information, it was a permissions issue. My host company sent the following:

This appeared to be a problem with the permissions of the file. I ran the following script in the public_html folder of the account:

find . -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \; && find . -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \;

What this does is reset the permissions of all files and folders to the default ones. After the script was executed, I reloaded the page and everything appeared to be working fine.

Thanks again Bob

Paul
