Free Client Comment Validation + Captcha

[tmancey]

Anybody find a fix to this mod not showing the Captcha section, I have found out that it is to do with the $cancaptcha not being equal to 1, however it is enabled in our settings.

Any help appreciated

Another Modern Bill integrated install?

SupportSuite seems to manually force the captcha setting to no when integration with MB is enabled.

I've updated my attachment to force the captcha on.

If you've previously installed, open up includes/functions_comments.php and find:

PHP Code:

    if(canCommentCaptcha() && $_SWIFT["settings"]["user_enablecaptcha"] == 1 && !$_SWIFT["user"]["userid"])
    {
        generateCaptchaWord();
        $template->assign("cancaptcha", "1");
    } 


Replace with:

PHP Code:

    if(canCommentCaptcha() && !$_SWIFT["user"]["userid"])
    {
        generateCaptchaWord();
        $template->assign("cancaptcha", "1");
    }

Thanks, it now works, not sure what modernbill is, as never installed it myself, just installed 3.11.01 and some other older versions prior.

All working now and a great MOD, as this will save me hours deleting hundreds of spam that seems to be hitting us

Once again, thanks for the help

Have a browse around the mod board (http://forums.kayako.com/f52/). There are many cool ones there. Chris' ones are listed in his signature.

Another great mod, Chris, thanks

[tjbaker]

Thanks for sharing...

I am curious - is this going to have to be done every time an upgrade is released?

peace,

[craigbrass]

Unfortunately, yes. Hopefully it will be included with with V4 by default.

[Jamie Edwards]

This is due for inclusion in V3.

[craigbrass]

Oh, great stuff Jamie, will it be in the next stable release?

I've installed the mod but still getting comment spam. Is there some place they are still getting through?

[Jamie Edwards]

They could be reading the CAPTCHAs; most spambots do this effectively.

ACK!
I also installed the MOD but still getting tonns of Spam, from the Outside it seems to be impossible to post Spam-Comments.

So please Kayako give us some Infos to stop this Spam, if there is no Solutions to block the Comments i think the best way is to buy a new Ticket-System.

An optional solution is to remove the comments section completely.
