Hello

Completed a fresh install MyBB 1.6.14 on Linux Centos server.

On the user Registration page after submit it returns

The image verification code that you entered was incorrect. Please enter the code exactly how it appears in the image.

I have edited my php.ini file to enable the extension php_gd2 and then ran httpd service restart
I have checked in my Template Sets->Default Templates->member_register to see if {$regimage} is after {$referrer} and indeed it is.

The error still occurs, and no image captcha is displaying

Attached image.
Are you using a plugin like AD-Block? If yes, disable it. If no, try using ReCaptcha. If you don't know how to enable ReCaptcha just tell Smile

I am not using adblock, as for ReCaptcha, is that googles captcha algorithmn? I would rather use the forums native captcha.

Overall, The original error still persists, Please see the screenshot in post 1.

No captcha field is showing at all in the html page.

I have tried in IE and Firefox, no captcha shows.
I remember this happening on my test forum @ localhst once... What I did was just turned off CAPTCHA, Besides, CAPTCHA imho is an annoyance, not a help; i drives users away, if u got spam problems, security questions may work....
Try reCapcha is a lot more benefical, plus it would be nice to have a test check.
If its a new forum, you could reinstall it-- that should work....

Thanks

For security questions I've always used this plugin: http://mods.mybb.com/view/registration-s...y-question
I dont think it is correct to make this thread overall as Solved, as we really havnt solved the captcha issue, but went for another mechanism completly.

Overall the problem still exists, although as I don't use the captcha anymore I am not to bothered about it right now.

Alright. Then you should give us more details. Although you mentioned that you checked your default template, in this screenshot it seem that "Image Verification" field is not displayed at all in the registration form.

So, could you post here "member_register" and "member_register_regimage" templates used by your theme (if were modified and are not the default)?

L.E.// Also, would be useful a link to your forum. Thanks.
