Stable version of MPForm ( Multi Purpose Form)

[weiry]

Hi,

I have installed the MPForm and all works fine, but the Captcha doesn't work. Every time I put in the corresponding text/numbers it tells me "The verification number (also known as Captcha) that you entered is incorrect."

It is correct and doesn't matter what method of Captcha I use. I have installed WB 2.8.

The Form works fine if I turn of Captcha in the settings for MPForm.

Help would be appreciated.

Weiry.

@weiry: What are your answers to the questions I asked in Reply #71 of this thread?

@FrankH,

PHP 5.2.6 and I didn't install the patch, just installed the module to start with. Would you mind filling in the gaps and tell me how do I do that as I don't see any instructions for that, might help others who are facing a similar problem.

Thanks,

Weiry.

[FrankH]

On the page from where you downloaded the module are links to help pages, one page is only for installation.
You should be able to find and read this page.

Hi FrankH,

Followed the instructions installed the patch and still get the error message.

Cleared Cache and still got the error message.

Same problem as Weiry.

The Captcha does not work here too.

• Did the Patch (twice to be sure)
• Reload the mods
• Cleared the cache

Same problem persists.

Do you get an error message when you switch on full error reporting in WB?

[Boudi]

Yes:

In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier.

Which type of captcha are you using?

[Boudi]

Which type of captcha are you using?

The standard version after you use the MPform.

[FrankH]

What is the time stamp of the file /include/captcha/captcha.php ?

[Boudi]

Where to look for that exactly?

[FrankH]

May be in the WB installation?

[Boudi]

you mean the timezone? GMT + 1

[Argos]

No, he probably means the date/time of the php-file.

[Argos]

Sorry to interfere, but he'll probably wants to know the time as well

Dumb is my middlename  

Solved! My mistake.

I Noticed that I ftp-uploaded the captcha.php in binary mode. Therefore the file didn't work. After I uploaded it again in ascii mode all things were cool!

May be for the moderator it's good to delete all the last 13 posts? They don't have any feedback any more for others I think.

Thnx for your time to help!

Hi,

Now it is my turn to feel dumb!

@Boudi how did you tell that the captcha was loaded in binary mode?

I just installed the module in the usual way through the backend. Should I FTP the captcha directory again?

[Boudi]

how did you tell that the captcha was loaded in binary mode?

I double checked everything and that looked okay. Then all of a sudden I realized that for some weeks ago i had to ftp something binary and forgot to set that setting back to auto-detect.

Should I FTP the captcha directory again?

Triple read the paths well in the documentation. Be sure you ftp upload detection is on auto-detect (helped in my case) and then it should be fine.

Good luck.

Probably you are choking?
How can the time stamp be the same as the original file when you upload the file by ftp??

Hi,

I placed the timestamp of the original file in the patch itself. Sorry :S.

Hi FrankH,

I re-checked everything, made sure the patch was loaded correctly, created a new form on a new page and still getting errors with Captcha.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Hi,

First of all: very nice modul! It does exactly what I want to do with it!! Except one thing, that's why I post my question here.

I've made a form with a HTML section in it. In this section I use a Title, Label and Selection boxes. But when I submit the form, the data of the HTML section is not included. I get the original layout of the HTML section, but the data is not in it.
The other fields of the form are ok, but just the HTML section not. Anybody an idea, what to do?

Thanks in advance!

[snark]

Is it possible to include a function
'date of birth'

the calender as it is is no good for that...

date of birth should be 3 selectionboxes

Date of birth:   [      ] [       ] [      ]
