Support Thread for Google reCAPTCHA plugin

[mikestaps]

Hello,

I don't know if I am at the right place here but i haven's seen a "start thread" option. Here's
my problem.
reCAPTCHA is n't working all the time i haven't seen it on the new account page and not
always on the contact us page. i checked the files they are all there in the right place, checked
google key's they are also in the right file?
So what can be wrong in my situation ? (check itparts.biz/zentest)

It seemed to show up fine on both the account and contact page for me. I used chrome, cleared cache and jumped around. It showed every time.

Hi Anne
I'm assuming you are using the 'Ask a Question' plugin - https://www.zen-cart.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=109
If so, it should be fairly easy to add it to that.
Essentially you need too look at the instruction for pre-1.5.1 installation

In /includes/modules/ask_a_question/header.php just after line 41 add:

$zco_notifier->notify('NOTIFY_ASK_A_QUESTION_CAPTCHA_CHECK');

and change the line below it from

if ($zc_validate_email and !empty($enquiry) and !empty($name)) {

to

if ($zc_validate_email and !empty($enquiry) and !empty($name) and $error == false) {

in /includes/classes/observers/class.google_recaptcha.php insert this just below line number 23

$pages_to_check[] =  'NOTIFY_ASK_A_QUESTION_CAPTCHA_CHECK';

in your tpl_ask_a_question_default.php file (probably just under the textarea, so line 80) add

<?php echo recaptcha_get_html(); ?>

That should do it :)

I added the recaptcha to the Ask A Question as described. My only issue is that no error message is shown if they forget to mark the checkbox. How do I make the error message appear like it does on the Contact Us form?

Any idea how to implement this on the Testimonials Page? I have it setup on all our other pages like Contact Us, Reviews, Create Account Etc. but been getting spam testimonials.

Thank you

Hi
Sorry, looks like I missed one extra change to make
In /includes/classes/observers/class.google_recaptcha.php change line number 42
from

$event_array = array('NOTIFY_CONTACT_US_CAPTCHA_CHECK' => 'contact', 'NOTIFY_CREATE_ACCOUNT_CAPTCHA_CHECK' => 'create_account', 'NOTIFY_REVIEWS_WRITE_CAPTCHA_CHECK' => 'review_text');

to

$event_array = array('NOTIFY_CONTACT_US_CAPTCHA_CHECK' => 'contact', 'NOTIFY_CREATE_ACCOUNT_CAPTCHA_CHECK' => 'create_account', 'NOTIFY_REVIEWS_WRITE_CAPTCHA_CHECK' => 'review_text','NOTIFY_ASK_A_QUESTION_CAPTCHA_CHECK' => 'contact');

Then hopefully it should work

Hi - I'm not familiar with the testimonials page, did you create it via a plugin?

In an earlier post you had the code below, which I had originally used:

Hi Anne
Opps forgot - in /includes/classes/observers/class.google_recaptcha.php line 42 change

$event_array = array('NOTIFY_CONTACT_US_CAPTCHA_CHECK' => 'contact', 'NOTIFY_CREATE_ACCOUNT_CAPTCHA_CHECK' => 'create_account', 'NOTIFY_REVIEWS_WRITE_CAPTCHA_CHECK' => 'review_text');

to

$event_array = array('NOTIFY_CONTACT_US_CAPTCHA_CHECK' => 'contact', 'NOTIFY_CREATE_ACCOUNT_CAPTCHA_CHECK' => 'create_account', 'NOTIFY_REVIEWS_WRITE_CAPTCHA_CHECK' => 'review_text','NOTIFY_ASK_A_QUESTION_CAPTCHA_CHECK' => 'ask_a_question');

So now I replaced the line below:
'review_text','NOTIFY_ASK_A_QUESTION_CAPTCHA_CHECK' => 'ask_a_question')

With:
'review_text','NOTIFY_ASK_A_QUESTION_CAPTCHA_CHECK' => 'contact')

And it worked perfectly.

Thank you!

Excellent - glad that worked

Yes, it's a plugin called Testimonial Manager.

First, Thank you for this mod! I am trying to add to my store http://kidswithagrin.com
It works on create an account but not on contact_us. I tried to manually modify the header_php.php file with no luck. Here is my original file. Do you see anything wrong? Thank you!
