Currently, Webclassifieds is missing captcha support on registration page. Probably one of the couple of reasons why there’s a need to mess up with the code, and really messed up the site.
This feature is missing on current Webclassifieds, and Webcribble is working on this feature, but the update won’t be any sooner yet.
With that said, you might want to get ahead and have a captcha support on your sign-up page…
I assume you have ReCaptcha account, if none, please create one.
Please follow these steps:
- You basically need to modify two pages. /engine/pages/register.php and /templates/register_main.html.
- Please backup those two files, and when done, please proceed to the steps below…
- You need to download the recent versions of those files mentioned on Step#1. Please download the zip file here,
- Open /engine/pages/register.php and modify the top two lines. The $publickey and $privatekey which is provided by ReCaptcha:
// Get a key from http://recaptcha.net/api/getkey
$publickey = "6Lcm5AgAAAAAAF556HtPCm11sOsOoK42XKQ9LGAl";
$privatekey = "6Lcm5AgAAAAAAAzS2gu5mYU45O32pDveXM_AzPqk";
- Please upload the two files to your server.
- Please upload recaptcha.lib from ReCaptcha.net, to /engine/pages/ directory.
- Have some beer ^_^
Hope that helps. If you’re in trouble, please let me know.
