Topic: Does anyone know how to turn pictures on?

I turn on capcha for registering. When I try to register (a new member) there is this message:

"Captcha image. Turn pictures on to see it."

and no captch shows. I have looked throughout the admin pages and do not see how to turn on pictures. Does anyone know how to turn pictures on?

What is the version of pun_antispam that you used? Did you try to copy the url of the captcha and request the image directly? Perhaps there are some errors there.

I'm sorry, I don't quite get your second question, so, no, I haven't tried that yet.  hmm

I mean copying the value of the src attribute of the CAPTCHA image and pasting it to the browser's address string. Here an example of this url:

http://localhost/punbb13/extensions/pun_antispam/image.php?0cec3475213d0652ee74a0f3d27d22ab

The image doesn't show at all; how could I find the src value to post into the address bar?

Re: Does anyone know how to turn pictures on?

Solution is very simple! With some hosters you must chmod the directory of the extension to 755 and not 777 and then the CAPTCHA image appears.

Now, it works. Thanks!

Although the solution was simple to execute, your suggestion is very much appreciated. I would not have thought of that in weeks..  tongue
