Hi

I am Using captcha module to prevent spam user registration. However this is causing some problem interms of user registration.
Every time user clicks register new user ( eg: http://www.eyst.org/user/register) directly you get warning saying answer you entered is wrong, even before some one enter their details and click on submit button. Is there any way to solve this problem.

I know I've seen similar postings about this, you may want to check the projects issue tracker at http://drupal.org/project/issues/captcha - that's also a good place to file issues at, although you should check if there's an issue filed already.

Good luck!

I am using a captcha module to prevent web bot/spam registration. However this is causing some problems. Not every time but sometimes when a user clicks submit on http://ids.sdstate.edu/Training/Summer/form.cfm they get a warning that what they entered is incorrect. How did you solve this problem?

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

The problem hasnt been solved yet and I believe has something to do with anon users being served cached pages. Read the captcha issue querry, This is the known bug that is listed on the project page. you can see the bug on many sites that are using captcha with Drupal. Finding a workaround hasn't proved fruitful as of yet.

angrydonuts.com has the same issue i think, look at the top of the pages, is this what you are seeing?. : http://angrydonuts.com/what_if_fapi_were_oo

I didn't find the option to use a captcha in the registration form. How did you use it to prevent spam registration?

You have to install and enable the captcha module then configure it in the places you want it. I'm about to disenable it on my site as it's causing too many problems.
