reCaptcha in Join Form missing - on "forgot passwo

Hello, 

Got a strange issue, on the Join Form the reCaptcha is missing (so I could not enter a new Member). On the "forgot password" Window it is available. I got the current Dolphin Version freshly installed. 

Does anybody has an Idea?

Thanks a lot.

Best regards

Bruno

have you set up your captcha here http://www.google.com/recaptcha and then entered the keys here http://yourdomain.com/administration/advanced_settings.php?c=Security

Hello

Yes I did it like that. And surprisingly in the "Forgot password" the recaptcha picture arises and in the join form not.

Thanks for any hint.

Best regards, Bruno

Hello again

Still got the same problem, in Join Form the recaptcha picture does not shows up (only the picture with entry fields), in the forgot password form it shows (see attachments). I got installed from scratch with the softaculous service, maybe there is a problem?

Has anybody an Idea?

Thanks.

Best regards,

Bruno

softaculous - I have seen other issues where this causes things not to get installed correctly - would recomend doing a manual upload/install instead.

Please do not use tiff file format to post screenshots. There is not much software out there that supports that format. It is not a common web format and should not be used. Use PNG, JPG or GIF only. PNG preferred.

Example. I have no software installed on my computer that will allow me to view tiffs. And based on the number of views your attachments have had, looks like not many others do either.

Hello ProfessorSr, hello deano92964

Thank you for your responses. And sorry, I reply that late. The attached images now in jpg. What I did meanwhile is, I reinstalled Dolphin from scratch and not by using the softaculous service. Same same. Then I removed the whole installation and installed it not - as I should - under https://www.mysite.com, I installed it under http://www.mysite.com and it worked again. So, I'm sure it is a problem by using SSL, interessting is, that the 'forgotpassword' Form still running and the join form not. So, I assume there is the problem to analyse by using the https:// - SSL installation of the recaptcha Plugin.

rather odd trhat it works under one but not the other. I dont have any captcha issues, but will try to help you out.

The first thing that comes to mind is when you created your captcha keys, did you use the https or http in your domain name. Also, you may want to look more into the settings of creating your captcha.

The next thing that I can think of is, in plugins/recaptcha/recaptchalib.php, around line 106:

function recaptcha_get_html ($pubkey, $error = null, $use_ssl = false)

try changing the false in red to true and see if that works for you. I am not using ssl, yet, so dont know how this will work for you.

As always, backup files before making any changes, and keep notes of what you changed, and dont forget to clear all caches.

Hello ProfessorSr

Thanks for your reply. I tried it out, but no effect (what is strange indeed). So still got the same, Join-Form is not working, the forgot password form is working. When I compare the code, the set up of this forms are really different (even I'm not a programmer). I have seen that Google has changed something which have to be considered until April 11th, what I have seen is, that that looks ok in the plugins/recaptcha/recaptchalib.php - File.

I try to focus on different handling in the forms mentioned, maybe I found something.

Best regards, and many thanks for your support!

Dear ProfessorSr

So, I think I got a problem found, but no solution. It seems there is a problem with reCaptcha using SSL, I think the items involved are the rechaptchalib.php and/or BxBaseCaptchaReCHAPTCHA.php. When I change the URL to https in BxBaseCaptchaReCAPTCHA then the same effect arises in the forgot password form and the reCaptcha picture is not shown anymore. So I think in the Join form there is an "old" code do not considering the SSL version....

If you got any idea, would be very helpful

Best regards, Bruno

sorry i couldnt be of more help - i hope someone else can give you a solution. I dont have captchas, and I havent set up my ssl yet, but when I do, I will definitely see if I have problems. And after reading a lot of posts/questions regarding ssl - I am scared.
