reCaptcha from Register Button

GK User
Tue Dec 13, 2011 8:48 pm
I have private and public Keys entered in K2 Comments. For the GK Template, I also had to enter the same public and private keys in plug in manager system reCaptcha. That resolves the ReCaptcha from the Login Button's pop up in the "create an account" link.

However, for Register button using the mod_gk_register register position, the reCaptcha does not come up so I am getting a recaptcha error. Should there be another area to input the public/private keys. Or something in the code some problems?

in com_users/registration/default.php, there is toward on line=48. Is there anything missing there?

<div id="gk_recaptcha"></div>

Hi

Do You have file in template called /html/com_users ? If Yes please rename it to /html/_com_users . This should tell me if problem is within joomla or a template.

Yes I do. I just renamed it like your said. After I did it, I clicked register and still same problem, no recaptcha showing up. Now, I clicked login and clicked create an account, there - my recaptcha went away.

I downloaded the new 2.5.1 and replaced all the files it said to replace it with the new files from 2.5.1 in my financial business template.

Let you know that the behavior did not change. It is exactly the same as it was. AS in as follows:
1. The Login Button when clicked, and use its link "create an account" works as it was already working this way. This works and it always was.
1.1 - Using the Login Button, if I use the "create and account" which by the way works, it has on top name "Joomla Pages II . User registration". Where is that "Joomla Pages II" coming from. I do not have that on menu manager's menu items and I don't want that there since its not correct.
1.2 - Using the Login Button, if I do not fill in anything or if wrong username/pw, and click Login, it will give the user a big Error 500 which appears to be missing that page or something. ---- 500 - You may not be able to visit this page because of.....
Instead of the usual "Username and password do not match or you do not have an account yet" or something similar of that nature.

2. The Register Button when clicked, displays NO recaptcha image at all. NONE, like it was before.
2.1 - I edited the ... /com_users and replaced it with _com_users to see what happens. Tested it and all recaptchas in GK reKaptcha went away. Then I put it back its original filename as it was to /com_users.

3. My plugin system reKaptcha public and private keys are filled in correctly.
4. My K2 Comments reKaptch public and private keys are filled in correctly also.
5. Also on this update v2.5.1, it says to update, - all facebook authentication plugin files. It did not say which actual file and subdirectory is it.

With v2.5.1 I am on the same boat as it was. It did not fix the recaptcha on this release.

Help pleaseeeeee .....

FYI, on the above issue 1.2, I also set chmod 777 on my /cache hopefully but still getting 500.

Hi

Ok. Now I'm sure. That the problem is a register module. Looks like it's simple structure is not allowing to use reCaptcha. Please search for a new module, install it and replace in register position.

Hey Piotr - is this you?
Ok like I said on the support area, I found some register extensions that may work to replace the current register position for mod_gk_register. The register extensions for J1.7 webs are:

1. http://www.jm-experts.com/extensions-to ... n-register
2. http://www.shape5.com/product_details/f ... odule.html

Chaging the current register position for mod_gk_register with any of the above will or may change the gavickpro style. I don't know yet.

Let me know. thank you so much Piotr.

I downloaded S5 Register to replace the pop-up registration module. I used S5 Register replacing mod_gk_register module and guess what, it works the same way. There was no ReCaptcha showing up.

Looking at the pop-up register from the register button using the new S5 Register module, it appears that the financial business template register is the one stripping out the reCaptcha. Some problem on that template "register" position that needs to be fixed.

Please let me know thank you.

Hi

Once again I've lost Your site's url :( And it was not mentioned in this post ;/ Probably I'll find it answering next questions, but let do a quick test and see if reCaptcha works in for example "right" position. Next try change to a default template and see if it work than. If not than once again it's the module fault.

Hello again. Again, I am on a localhost, no url yet until I get this done correctly.

I already did the right position earlier and it did not work. It was just like from the register button only it shows on the right hand side. What is the default template and where is it. Do you mean the actual Joomla 1.7.4 register module? Where is it and how do I use it.

The other extensions did not work as I already mentioned earlier. So, I am really thinking its really a module problem. Is that Joomla's module or your mod_gk_register module or is that the register position problem. How do I fix it?

If I can not use it, how do I use the register button to link to the same as the "create an account" link in the login pop-up.


Thanks.

Hi

Joomla does not have a standard register module at all. Only the register in user component.

The direct link to register form is: index.php?option=com_users&view=registration if You want replace the popup for button please edit /layouts/blocks/nav.php (if I remember right) and look for register button. Than replace the href value from # to index.php?option=com_users&view=registration and remove the id for this element.

the code's there already. Where is the Register POP-UP. I will link the registration to register pop-up. There is a popup.php but only for login.


<?php if((GK_REGISTER || GK_LOGIN) && !GK_COM_USERS) : ?>
<div id="gkButtons">
<?php if(GK_LOGIN) : ?>
<a href="<?php echo $this->URLbase(); ?>index.php?option=com_users&amp;view=login" id="btnLogin"><?php echo ($userID > 0) ? JText::_('TPL_GK_LANG_LOGOUT') : JText::_('TPL_GK_LANG_LOGIN'); ?></a>
<?php endif; ?>

//registration... i need the popup... !!!
<?php if(GK_REGISTER) : ?>
<a href="<?php echo $this->URLbase(); ?>index.php?option=com_users&amp;view=registration" id="btnRegister"><?php echo JText::_('TPL_GK_LANG_REGISTER'); ?></a>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>

Popup for registr is also there. All You need to do is to use a "register" position for a module. The case is to find a register module which will support reCaptcha.

Hi

For recaptcha in register module in popup there's not much to do. You will need to replace this module with one which can support recaptcha.

Why do You need to replace the files for facebook authentication ? When You configure it propperly in plugin configuration and secondly in template setings all should works just fine.

The lack of good documentation makes it difficult for many of the users of your templates to achieve the correct configuration in general.

Do you remember the old template docs? Here a link to the last one afaik Corporate2 Doc April 2010 J1.5. Things have moved on quite a bit since then. ;)

The old docs used to have the parameter settings used in the template. At that time things such as social networking plugins weren't part of the default build. There was no Gavern Framework! A huge amount of questions that arise on the forum repeatedly should and could be solved in supporting documentation. Especially stuff which is generic across templates. The Gavern Framework and related extensions should also be documented especially when it's provider is the author.

For some of your users it's not too big a deal, but for what seems to be the majority of your users the lack of documentation clearly is a problem.

Fortunately I don't need to ask anything right now. My point is that documentation would be useful to the majority of your subscribers. It's constructive criticism of an issue which is a very basic principle of a customer service. It really isn't something that should need discussing - many of your users have raised the point before only to be ignored. I doubt this time shall be any different.

Hey Piotr. Good Morning. I agree with Aghost. The problem is mostly reported bugs and never gets fixed. While documentation is available from your support website, they are never updated. GavickPro programmers are not fixing these bugs, i.e.pop-up recaptcha register button, among others. There is documentation on this popup register but as far as I know today, it only talks about how to insert the public and private keys but the popup does not work and it gives a recpatcha error. There really is a bug in the popup code (not the joomla code). I had to unpublished the mod position to get around it and used a regular register menu in com_users. At least on this one, recaptcha works.

I've seen quite a lot of updates but not in Financial Business. I really hope they fix the reported bugs that have been bugging us for quite a while.

The template is actually great and very nice thats why I did not attempt to change codes/css and styles. I used the actual positions and layouts with no change at all but the images and text info. I want it this way so in the future, if you have updates and fixes, all I need to do is copy them over.

You on the other hand, Piotr, is one of the most helpful tech I've worked in your team. You really tried to help my problem fixed most of the time despite a little bit of time lag. Overall, you are a great tech support.

Hi

I do know the usefulless of documentation and I'll definitely ask why it was stopped.

I've never thought of register reCaptcha as a bug, I think it's more of a module functionality which is not supporting it. But sure I'll report it and let You know what I've found out.

Thanks Piotr. Its a bug - It does NOT work. It gives an error asking to input words in recaptcha without the recaptcha info and fields to input, and a new user CAN NOT go anywhere without being able to register using this popup button.

It should have been fixed a long time ago. Thanks buddy.

Ok. I feel stupied now :( Looks like documentation is covered with Gavick wiki available under this address: https://www.gavick.com/documentation/ I use this page all the time, but completly forgot about it when You've asked me :(

For reCaptcha looks like this template wasn't made to work with one (this module to be percise), but I'm still fighting to get at least tips how to modificate our module instead of using a different one as suggested by programmers.

You have no useful documentation on this issue. This is happening to me with the template Pixellove.
This is a real drag. It would be one thing if this were a FREE template, but it is not.

Hi

Got a replie from programmers.
Like I thought only the module is guilty of not supporting reCaptcha and this module is free :) Templates were not designed with reCaptcha so this module was enought. The solution to this is as simple as using a module with reCaptcha support instead of this one. And that's all.

I was hoping the they fix the reCaptcha on v2.5.1 but the mod_gk_register only gave spaces at the bottom of the pop-up register which appear to be for reCaptcha but no recaptcha. I really believe this is a bug of gk code because this particular feature is part of the template (pop-up register) and it has the reCaptcha plugin input for it, but the bug still there.

Except for the "Captcha" Title, it appears to be double on top of each other.. see picture below.

And,

It is not using the original plugin, System - GKreCaptcha. It using Google plugin downloaded Captcha - ReCaptcha.

Please add this to css:

Code: Select all
label.hasTip {
    margin-left: 0;
}


To be honest I'm not sure if we have checked everything before. When You mentioned the solution I think that it should work with 2 reCaptcha plugins. First for reCaptcha and the second for placing in inside the module. Ok. Nevermind, the most important is that it's working :)

Hello Piotr- Good Morning.
It is NOT configurable in K2. The only thing you can do in K2 in the Social Options from the Option, is input the codes in the social tab. It is actually completely empty. This is why, the Gavick Template SocialAPI was created. The GavickAPI creates the social icon in K2 using the Social API template option.
Thanks,
