For me that verification thing only shows when I reply on a PM someone send me. It doesn't show up when I start a new PM without replying first.
Why is that ?

[Madlike]

Showing on
/private.php?do=newpm
/private.php?do=newpm&pmid=XX
/private.php?do=showpm&pmid=XX (QR)
/private.php?do=newpm&forward=X&pmid=XX

So, Working fine for me ?

<hookname>private_newpm_start</hookname>

Seems, nothing problem for it. Did you set your Human verification Options ?

I have reCaptcha as the verification method in my Forum. And like i said, I see the reCaptcha verification when I reply to a PM send to me, however I dont see the reCaptcha verification when I create a new PM to whoever.

I am using a Custom Skin, not vB standard. Is that an issue ? And i set the pm_showpm stuff from the first posting as described.


<div class="smallfont messagetext" style="text-align:$stylevar[left]">$vbphrase[message]: </div>
<div id="$editorid" class="vBulletin_editor">$messagearea</div>
<if condition="$allowed_bbcode"><div class="allowed_bbcode">$allowed_bbcode</div></if>
<br />$nospm_quickreply
<div class="submit_button">
<input type="hidden" name="fromquickreply" value="1" />
<input type="hidden" name="s" value="$session[sessionhash]" />
<input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="$bbuserinfo[securitytoken]" />
<input type="hidden" name="do" value="insertpm" />
<input type="hidden" name="pmid" value="$pm[pmid]" />
<input type="hidden" name="loggedinuser" value="$bbuserinfo[userid]" />
<input type="hidden" name="parseurl" value="1" />
<input type="hidden" name="signature" value="1" />
<input type="hidden" name="title" value="$pm[title]" />
<input type="hidden" name="recipients" value="$pm[recipients]" />
<input type="hidden" name="forward" value="0" />
<input type="hidden" name="savecopy" value="$pm[savecopy]" />
</div>

Still, it only shows in a reply of a PM, not when I create a new one without replying.

However, you mention in your last posting that you also see it in pm_newpm but the changes you say one has to do is only in the pm_showpm template. Would it not be necessary to also be in the pm_newpm template as well ?

Modification have Automatic template changes. This code adding the $nospm_newpm above to $posticons on "pm_newpm" template automaticly:

$nostemp =& $vbulletin->templatecache['pm_newpm'];
if ($nostemp)
{
$nostemp = str_replace('$posticons', '$nospm_newpm\n\n$posticons', $nostemp);
}

Try add this code to your pm_newpm template: $nospm_newpm

Note: <br />$nospm_quickreply for verification at PM QuickReply

I think this would make members mad. You won't have to even use this, had you put in all the effort to stop them upon registration.
