    Captcha doesn't work?
    on: July 22, 2009, 17:55

    I found a bug. When submitting forum post as an unregistered user I click “Submit” button, new page opens. Message on a new page says “Security code does not mach”. at the same time new post submitted to the forum! Although it should be either ignored or deleted.


    Please help! I am getting so many junk posts!

    Well, to avoid spam I enforced rule that only registered users can post. This works.

    But the what I want – is to let unregistered users post into forum and use Captcha as a spam protection tool. This doesn’t work. Please try again and help with solution.

    Hi, I’m having the exact same problem. I was testing out posting as a guest on mine, got the same incorrect code message, tried posting it two more times, then saw that all three had posted!

    Found this solution @ http://www.fahlstad.se/wp-forum/?wpforumaction=viewtopic&t=765.0 – It works for me!

    if you do, then you have to open wpf-insert.php, find


    else {

    $error = true;

    $msg = __(“Security code does not mach”, “wpforum”);

    }

    and update to:


    else {

    $error = true;

    $msg = __(“Security code does not mach”, “wpforum”);

    wp_die($msg);

    Hello…I am having the same problem as Socium and Jonquil! The forum worked fine for a couple of weeks. I have also tried the fix that worked for WP-Dude, but with no success. I am really out of options at this point.


    I have to have the users register to use the forum now, but since doing that, the posting has virtually stopped. Please….Need some here if you can….Thanks


    If Socium and Jonquil see this please respond if you found the problem.


    Perhaps Vast Guru has come up with something as well by now.
