Title: CAPTCHA
Post by: live627 on January 20, 2010, 03:20:03 PM
I had to input those characters ten times and considered an account removal.

Time to do it again...

(When it's on Medium, I have no problems)

Hmm, perhaps it does need a tweak, though it's only the one that's in SMF itself - not anything else.

I'll see what we can do about that for you.

The captcha has been changed to "Medium" level. Sorry for the inconvenience. :)

Someone posted on the SMF OM that their CAPTCHA was only displaying 5 letters when it needed 6. They said if you listened to the letters, you would hear all 6 and could then input the correct verification code. But the image only had 5. I didn't test it out, but I wonder if it's a bug and related to this issue.

I think it should be disabled for posts aswell, afterall if the bots can't register, we will be fine :)

I heard it goes away after a few posts or am I wrong

As an admin once put it "So get posting!"

It's only on the first 5 posts, so you shouldn't get it any longer.

I noticed if you ever get bots they only post once, so setting to 1 would work, but like trekkie said

For security reasons I think this is a good idea. Is it a mod or a core feature? And, out of curiosity, why was the level set to High?

The CAPTCHA for posts is a core feature in 2.0. I seem to recall that if it's enabled, High might even be the default but I can't remember.
