I had the same problem with the JOOMLACAPTCHA text. I resolved it by installing JoomlaXi Captcha.

Sorry, I couldn't find a category for Kunena 1.6 hacks, so I am posting here.

Here are some instruction how to enable the captcha for registered users as well with the side effect that you have to disable quick reply:

1. Install and configure captcha

2. Hack /components/com_kunena/funcs/post.php.
Add the following four lines after public function hasCaptcha() {
$user = JFactory::getUser();
if ($user->usertype == "Super Administrator" || $user->usertype == "Administrator" || $this->config->captcha == 0)
return false;
else
return true;

3. Hack /components/com_kunena/template/default/view/message.actions.php
Remove line <?php echo $this->message_quickreply; ?>

4. Hack /plugins/system/captcha.php

Add the following line before $user = &JFactory::getUser();

return true;

Hope this helps.

Hi Blackwinds - great work on integrating REcaptcha. It's much needed!

However, I haven't been able to install the plugin.

I have put it into /plugins/system/, replaced post.php and tried to add the ReCaptcha keys but somehow it is not working...

Would you be able to add more detailed instructions by any chance?

I am quite familiar with Kunena having used it on several sites.

The one I'm doing at the moment would like unregistered visitors to be able to post to their forums, using CAPTCHA to protect against spam. They will also require an email address.

I am using Kunena 1.6
I have tried both Osolcaptcha and JoomlaXi Captcha

In Kunena I have set Allow Guests to post/write = YES and
Enable captcha system with third party plugin = YES
Both captcha extensions work OK in Joomla EXCEPT for posting as a guest. The captcha section of the post displays a message:

The CAPTCHA plug-in is not enabled or not properly configured.

I can't figure out why, or find in formation on alternative captcha plugins that work with Kunena 1.6.
Any suggestions or advice appreciated

This didnt result in a working captcha picture for unregistered users, still the message:
The CAPTCHA plug-in is not enabled or not properly configured.

I to am having issues with Captcha working at all. I am using Joomla Version 1.6 so the instructions for activating the system joomla captcha do not apply as far as I can tell this extension is only good for Joomla 1.5x . Under the joomla 1.6 administration backend when you install the joomla system captch (JC45_Inst_JCaptha451.zip) there are no parameters to edit at all as mentioned in the Here ?

Also, I am using community builder and tried using the community builder captch plugin which works great on everything else on the site, except in the Kunena forum. I have a forum set up so that guests can view the forum and post to the forum.

However, when I check the "Enable captcha system with third party plugin" to "Yes" under the security tab in the Kunena control panel, and then go to the forum frontend and try posting as a guest and see the following where the captcha should be.

"The CAPTCHA plug-in is not enabled or not properly configured."


It would appear that no matter what captch plugin/extension I try using in the Joomla 1.6 CMS system, weather it be the community builder captch plugin or the most current joomla system captch plugin or even Joo ReCaptcha which I also tried. None of them will work with the Keunena 1.6 Component.

Any thoughts or solutions would help!
