no reCaptcha in guestbook 1.5.3 (Joomla 1.5.23)

Post by milesdavis »

Hello Phoca-Team,

I try for days now, to get a reCaptcha-Code for my guestbook, but there just appears the standard math captcha which is built-in.

I searched in this forum and tried several solutions:

1. deactivating SEF and / or SEO -> no effect
2. switching between JRoute and JHtml -> no effect

What could it be? Please help me!!!
Have you some other ideas?

Another question is: Can I use the TinyMCE Editor instead of the built-in editor for writing guestbook entries?

EDIT: link inserted: http://nochern.de/gaestebuch

I hope my english is understandable. If you like, I can write it again in german. (I am german)

Sincerely, milesdavis

Has no one any idea?

Could anyone tell (again) the usefull order to test it with parameters like SEO and the methods jroute / jhtml ?

I just have edited the parameters in the component itself as global settings, nothing is set in the menu point. I set reCaptcha with the two codes and jhtml as the security method, but there just appears the standard captcha.

So my question again, what am I doing wrong?

Hi, used editor is Tinymce, to use other, this needs to be customized.

Did you set the parameters in parameter component in menu link to guestbook:

I edited my settings in the component menu, not in the menu link. In the menu link everything is set to "global configuration".
Because I just have one guestbook.

But I have on the same webspace another joomla installation:

Official version: 1.5.23 with guestbook 1.5.3

Test version: 2.5.1 with the newest phoca guestbook version - but here reCaptcha works! On the site where I generate these keys I said it should be a global key. Could there be something wrong?
How I understand it, I should say there "use as global key" and write "http://nochern.square7.ch".

Overview:

http://nochern.square7.ch/nochern1523 <= here goes the url http://nochern.de to (registered at http://united-domains.de)

http://nochern.square7.ch/nochern_2.5.1 <= testing installation


Where is / are the mistake(s) in my thinking? :x

Hi, mostly there is only one reason, the settings in menu link to guestbook include the standard captcha, not recaptcha - I have no other idea why Joomla! will not accept the settings :-(

So disable SEF and check the Itemid - Itemid is id of menu link, then go to menu link with this ID and recheck if really recaptcha is set.
