That's because there isn't a path extensions/recaptchaextensions/recaptcha/lang/English/.

Somehow, when I un-installed/re-installed the extension, it left part of the path somewhere and appended to it: extensions/recaptchaextensions/recaptcha/lang/English/.

Anyhow, I've ironed it out so that it doesn't throw errors anymore, but it still doesn't work. Nothing changes when it is installed - no options appear to configure it where they should, no captcha shows up on the register screen...

I'm sure it is just something I've screwed up when I modified the files. I don't know enough about PunBB and it's extensions (or PHP) atm to fix this.

Here are the files including my modifications in case anyone wants to take a stab at it (mannungo?).

You don't have the option to change a user's password when you click on the name and view their profile? It's the 1st line under Introduction for me (but I have the pun_admin_user extension installed).

So, after posting this, I got the idea that it might be better to spend my time on getting an extension to work so that it would be easy to enable/disable this rather than fight with manually doing the reCaptcha. I grabbed this extension that was written for 1.3 BETA and went to work.

I know a little about several languages but PHP isn't one of them. Never the less, after some elite search-and-replace (PUN_ROOT -> FORUM_ROOT, pun_user -> forum_user, etc) I got it to install without errors. The captcha wasn't showing, however. I tried un-installing and re-installing for giggles and now I get this:

Warning: include(../extensions/recaptchaextensions/recaptcha/lang/English/recaptcha.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in .../htdocs/forums/include/common.php(129) : eval()'d code on line 188

I'll just re-install the forums... nothing on it yet anyhow.

But since I don't know what I'm doing, would someone help me out with the captcha please? big_smile

Hello everyone. I'm new to PunBB and I'm trying to get reCaptcha working on the registration form.

As there isn't a plug-in for this, I manually installed it and have managed to get so far as having the captcha show up about where I want it on the registration page. The problem is how it looks when I view the page. The form is garbled up and unusable, as can be seen here (tested in FF, Opera and IE):

That is how it looks on the registration page. I did make a test page that loaded the captcha outside PunBB and it worked fine.

I am hoping someone familiar with PunBB could point me in the right direction on where I can look to correct this error. I believe it is a CSS problem, and if so, which files (and where big_smile ) should I edit to solve the problem in all browsers? I'm using the default Oxygen skin.

Any help at all would be appreciated.

For reference, here is how reCaptcha should look:

Also, I'm aware of the captcha plug-in that is available for PunBB, but it lacks the accessibility features of reCaptcha.

Thanks in advance for any help on this smile
