The humanizer

What is the use of this extra field if phpBB already offers visual confirmation?

The Visual Confirmation In phpbb is weak and can be easily cracked by spam bots. But with this mod you have to press yes to register, so a bot will have to be made specialy for forms with this mod.

I have installed the Humanizer mod and now apears the error message:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /usr/export/www/hosting/loginname/includes/usercp_register.php on line 1198

The error is at the end of the usercp_register.php on the end line with the: ?>

All other stuff works in the forum, only regestry and profile not!

Anybody have a idea?

Ich hab den Humanizer mod installiert, und jetzt kommt die Fehlermeldung wenn ich auf Register clicke:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /usr/export/www/hosting/loginname/includes/usercp_register.php on line 1198

Der fehler is am ende von usercp_register.php an der stelle mit dem: ?>

Alles andere geht noch im Forum, nur Regestrieren nicht und Profile abrufen.

Habt ihr ne Idee woran es liegen kann?

G-Fellow, try to restore your backed up file usercp_register.php and do changes in it from the beginning and pay extra attention. If, of course, you've backed up this file before installing the mod.

To Mod Author: How about maikng a question and answer variable, so it could be set up by the admin? Like:
Question: What is the icq no of admin?
Answer that should be entered: 18820111

I have not looked closelly at the this mod's code, but was just wondering for how long it will last till the bot AI will be adjusted.

And of course, thank for your work on this mod!

P.S. Bots muzdie! ; )

There is already a MOD for this in development:
Registration Anti-Bot-Question Mod (German only)

Underhill, can't a bot just look for a raido button and make a selection for "value=1"?

This may have been answered but is it easy mod compatable.

Feel free to change the question like "Are you an alien?" and the default answer to "Yes" (with change to the answer also) - But i think this is a new tip for the tipfile...

Yes - You can use Easymod to install the Humanizer (if i understood your question)

Hi all
...a very strange issue, mates:
after the installation, the question appears twice in the registration page.

I thought it could be an easymod fault. So, the my second try was made manually. But with the same result.

What the hell could be happened?

tnx (and thank you to the author)

I'm having the same problem - the answer appears twice.

Hi observe, hi binarysins,

which version of Easymod did you use? I have tested it with 0.3.0 only...

And - Where can I see your phpBB or could you please place the "includes/usercp_register.php" and "templates/subSilver/profile_add_body.tpl" as a textfile for debugging?

Hi Underhill!

3.0 me too. By the way my second try was done manually. So it is *not* easymod the problem, I guess.

Tell me an email address i can use to send you my two files you requested.

In the meanwhile, thank you
