Saviour,,, download new zip and update...

Okay...

Here we go again...

Files uplaoded and template modifications made to the form template.

The CAPTCHA image and font now shows on the form...Hooray!

Here are the issues with your hack:

1) Error message for your hack opens a blank page (if the code is entered incorrectly) displaying an error message with the word "incorrect" spelled incorrectly. I fixed that, but feel the error message should be displayed on the same page as the form, in red text and under or above the CAPTCHA image, when the form is submitted.
2) After uploading files and making template changes, there is no email sent to the email address listed in the form hack and no PM sent, either. I believe this is due to the fact the new code we had to edit in the form changed the post action from "newthread.php" to "image_match.php".

The above issues need to be addressed in order for this hack to be a viable hack for anyone. The premise is a good one, however, the submission of the form should follow the same guidelines as any other vbulletin form...such as the contact us form.

Update: Number 2, above, seems to be working now...my bad...I had to correct the $answerall == part on the form.

Also, regarding Number 1 above: If there is a problem with the code entered after clicking "Submit"...instead of redirecting to your error page, how about a vbulletin Message box like the one you'd get if the form was completed succesfully, or if there was a missing field. At least, it would follow the layout of the forum and the form hack itself.

Any plans to correct the "error" redirect? Or incorporate it into a vbulletin message?

This is a great hack...now that it's working...clicked "Installed".

NEWS BULLETIN.... .... .... Updated code to integrate better with Form Hack...

Not true. I have the built in $imagereg working just fine in my forms. I hope to release it sometime, but it's really low on my priority list right now.

There are not all files in archive in first post (only xml file), in the html code you refer to image_match.php.

Charles_1,,,
Sorry about the missing files... I double checked files and uploaded with all intact...

Easy setup
*********

• upload captcha image dir. to forum-root... = show backgrounds with text
• upload both .php files to forum-root... = verify text match = true and submit
• install xml file with ABE1 formhack & Updated code = access new form1 with captcha image match

Good Luck 2 ya...
