Re: Liaise 1.27 and Xoops 2.3.0 RC2

Well, the answer is no, I hadn't checked whether the xforms captcha actually worked. The reason is that the xforms captcha doesn't appear on my forms because the forms cannot be seen unless the user is logged on in a particular group. My site uses reCaptcha since it has become apparent that the simple XOOPS captcha has been cracked. Unfortunately reCaptcha does not appear to completely prevent spurious registrations either. See here

Having said all that, I just accessed an xforms form on my test server without logging on (after making that form accessible to anon). I submitted the form without filling in the xforms recaptcha and it was accepted, sending me the email for that test form. So, the xforms captcha does not work. Dylian, I hope you see this and can fix it. I'd suggest incorporating reCaptcha if you can. There is a thread about that here

Mamba and barryc,
Have you checked what happens when a user fails to complete the captcha phrase on a form? As far as I can tell xForms will send the form regardless of the captcha element. See this thread for more discussion.

Yes, that what it was! Thanks!

I'm using xforms on 2.3.3. The captcha works but you only see it if not logged on. I guess the rationale is that if you are already logged on you are assumed to be legitimate.

My problem with Liaise was that the admin pages weren't working. I don't have that problem with xforms.

I've updated the module and added a configuration option where you can set a text visible if there are no forms for the current user.

I tried xForms with 2.3.3 and 2.4.0 Beta, but the Captcha doesnt' seem to work. The Liaise on the same system seems to work fine.

Anybody experienced the same problem?
