Hello, I would like to add captcha authentication to guestbook in drupal 6, I think I can do it if I know the form ID for the guestbook message. If this will work could you please tell me the form name as I can't find it! Many thanks

jusspitti,
I'm not sure how I did it but I have
guestbook_form_entry_form
guestbook_form_entry
added in my challenge type per form settings. I think I opened up the guestbook.module file and tried all the functions one at a time until I got one that worked.

Sometimes in life it's rewarding to work things out for yourself. But not this time - it took ages.

So add those forms to your CAPTCHA settings, select a challenge type and you should be sorted

By going to CAPTCHA's settings, you can enable an option that adds an administrative link to all forms and thus allows to enable or disable CAPTCHA support on each form. Just visit a guestbook then, enable CAPTCHA for that form, and you're done.

I don't know if this is any different in D6, but in D5 I had to manually make this change in the database to get CAPTCHA to work with Guestbook:

INSERT INTO `captcha_points` ( `form_id` , `module` , `type` ) VALUES ('guestbook_form_entry_form', NULL , NULL);

Drupal 6 fix --- pasted this " guestbook_form_entry_form " into the text box where it asks for Form ID

1. Find the form name by viewing the source and doing a search on form_id
2. goto /admin/user/captcha
3. add the form name guestbook_form_entry_form in the form_id column
4. choose the Challenge type

enjoy!
