Forum registration confirmation code

Unread post by darkgamr » Wed May 11, 2011 12:27 pm

There was a new(ish) member in chat today named reddot, and she was having issues with the confirmation code picture showing up as a box with a red x in ie, then after switching to firefox, the code didn't show up at all. I went to the register screen as well and I didn't see anything either. The cats/notcats are also missing. Can some other people check out the registration page to see if this is a universal problem or if something's just up with both of our computers?

Confirmed. No confirmation code, no cat pictures.
It looks like there's an <img src> description (<dd>) for it in the Definition List (<dl>/<dt>), but no image shows up; and there appears to be no code whatsoever for the cat images:

Code: Select all

<div class="panel">
	<div class="inner"><span class="corners-top"><span></span></span>

	<h3>Confirmation of registration</h3>
	<p>To prevent automated registrations the board requires you to enter a confirmation code. The code is displayed in the image you should see below. If you are visually impaired or cannot otherwise read this code please contact the <a href="mailto:forums@paradoxthemusical.com">Board Administrator</a>.</p>

	<fieldset class="fields2">


	<dl>
		<dt><label for="confirm_code">Confirmation code:</label></dt>
		<dd><img src="./ucp.php?mode=confirm&confirm_id=[EDIT: Random Characters]&type=1" alt="Confirmation code" /></dd>
		<dd><input type="text" name="confirm_code" id="confirm_code" size="8" maxlength="8" tabindex="8" class="inputbox narrow" title="Confirmation code" />
		<input type="submit" name="refresh_vc" id="refresh_vc" class="button2" value="Refresh confirmation code" />
		<input type="hidden" name="confirm_id" id="confirm_id" value="" /></dd>

		<dd>To prevent automated access and spam, you are required to confirm that you are human. Put a check mark next to all photographs of cats. If you cannot see any photographs, please contact the <a href="mailto:forums@paradoxthemusical.com">Board Administrator</a>.</dd>
	</dl>


	</fieldset>
	<span class="corners-bottom"><span></span></span></div>
</div>

Forums got updated recently - must've broken the confirmation system. I'll check it out shortly.

Looks like the confirmation system we were using just isn't compatible with this version. Thought I checked that, but there you go. I've taken it out and set it back to the built-in one for the time-being so new users should be able to log in again. Let me know if any problems. If spam becomes an issue, I'll find something else.
