- danparsonson 16y agoDo you have javascript enabled? I'm using reCaptcha (although I'm considering dropping that in favour of something simpler - "which of these pictures is the right way up?" or something like that). Incidentally, you will also need javascript for the password entry to work - your password is hashed (SHA1) before transmission. Otherwise - could it be some sort of ad-blocking extension maybe?
- ZeroMinx 16y agoAh yes, was going to comment on that too.. Why do you have a captcha? Are you having spam registration problems? As captchas are a hassle to people, I wouldn't worry putting one in place until you have an issue with non-humans registering.
- danparsonson 16y agoYou're right, thanks - it's only there 'just in case'. I've taken it out.
- danparsonson 16y agoOK, I've just tried with a vanilla install of Opera and the captcha isn't showing up - I'll fix that ASAP.
- danparsonson 16y agoOK, give it another go - the captcha is no more!
