Hi there, I'm running drupal v4.7.4 and recently installed the captcha module to deal with automated spam I've been getting as anonymous content submissions. I've enabled the module and it's working fine for my new user registration page, but I've enabled the "Create a node" section for anonymous users and I'm not seeing the captcha form.

I'm wondering if this is a known issue and if anyone else is experiencing this problem?

Thanks,

Scott

I downloaded both Captcha and TextImage, installed both, set setting, and.... nothing.

I'm searching the site for answers now.

Can anyone help here - i'm using drupal 5.6 and the latest captcha - Want to give my visitors the ability to submit code snippets but want to add Captcha and don't know how to get that to work.
There is this on the setting page:

Add CAPTCHA adminstration links to forms
This option is very helpful to enable/disable challenges on forms. When enabled, users with the "administer CAPTCHA settings" permission will see CAPTCHA administration links on all forms (except on administrative pages, which shouldn't be accessible to untrusted users in the first place). These links make it possible to enable a challenge of the desired type or disable it.

but when i check this option, nothing happens. What am i missing here?

I found this confusing, too, so here are the steps to require a captcha for anonymous node submission:

(Upload latest version to site, enable module)

1) In admin/user/captcha, tick "Add CAPTCHA administration links to forms"

2) Go to node/add/story (or whichever node type you want to protect), scroll down until you see "CAPTCHA" link

3) Enable captcha for the node type. It will tell you "Untrusted users will see a CAPTCHA here."

Install the latest form of Captcha, enable the core module and the Image module, then on page /admin/user/captcha (yes, Captcha settings are in the user control page) enable the captcha for the desired pages.

Oceria doesn't know where this -repeatbutton -repeatbutton is....

That is my point - i can't see my new node on there - this is all what I have:

comment_form
contact_mail_page
contact_mail_user
user_login
user_login_block
user_pass
user_register

Any idea why i don't see it?

Thanks for your help.

I bet you read this part of the module:

Select the challenge type you want for each of the listed forms (identified by their so called form_id's). You can easily add arbitrary forms with the help of the 'Add CAPTCHA adminstration links to forms' option.

Good to hear you got it running! ;)

Yes I did, but it is kind of confusing cause the 1st thing I did was to go to the "Content Types" and try to edit the content to add the CAPTCHA but couldn't find a way to do that. Then when I was posting an article on my website, there was the link waiting for me to assign or not assign the CAPTCHA! :)

Thanks for trying to help, appreciate it.

How did you done that?
I would like to setup captcha on node type forms and i can't
I can only see:

comment_form
contact_mail_page
contact_mail_user
user_login
user_login_block
user_pass
user_register

I have select: Add CAPTCHA adminstration links to forms

Basically i just want to protect when somebody try to add new node, will see captcha.
Thanks!

And now the solution!
(for those of you who, like me, never saw any "real" info in the above)

(Based on Drupal 6.9 and captcha 6.x-1.0-rc2)

1) Install captcha

2) At the top of the captcha settings (admin/user/captcha) tick:
- Add CAPTCHA administration links to forms

3) "Create" a new node of the content type you want to add captcha to (node/add/???)

4) Find the CAPTCHA settings in the node create form, expand and configure

5) Voilá
