A little bummed.. 1000 impressions, over 400 Solved Type-Ins and 0.00 revenue. I was hoping for like .01 even on my site since I installed in on Oct. 15th.

Just installed yesterday. At first I thought it wasn't working since it showed text that looked like an easy to read captcha so I disabled it and then reenabled it today and it's working fine. I guess there must be delay before it begins working. I think it's a great idea just for the difficulty that it will cause to spam bots, and yet it's relatively easy for someone who's first language is the same as the one used in the advert. It might be a little difficult for a speaker of another language.

Had it up and running for a while now, completely forgot that it was set for revenue, checked and surprised to see this:

Installed, but on contact us and registration page I get this error:

Warning: require_once([path]/includes/class_humanverify_solvemedia.php) [function.require-once]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in [path]/includes/class_humanverify.php on line 59

Fatal error: require_once() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/home/admin1/public_html/includes/class_humanverify_solvemedia.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/admin1/public_html/includes/class_humanverify.php on line 59

Edit: sorry guys, fixed. Uploaded to the wrong directory. Doh!

However, it doesn't show up on the contact us page. Does it need a template edit for that?

Contact Us may not be currently selected as an action that requires human verification in your forum settings. You can select which actions on your forum require human verification by going to Setting > Options > Human Verification Options in the admin panel.

$18.36 eCPM? How did you manage that, the BEST I've seen with this company is $3.65


Biggest issue with this mod so far is having people email me because they can't figure out where to get the answer from. Window lickers.
