hm.. I can't see wrong configuration. Only an incorrect menu item. You use in your main menu the Kunena menu type "Home-Page (Startseite)". Use the Alias Menu type to define this link "Ticketcenter".
www.kunena.org/forum/36-German/126070-ge...?limitstart=0#139006

Set "CAPTCHA Challenge for Guests = Yes" and save.
Then set "CAPTCHA Challenge for Guests = No" and save again. Maybe it helps.

Hi rich,

I changed the menu item to the alias type and tried the setting for CAPTCHA Challenge for Guests as you suggested. I am sorry this doesnt have an effect on my reported issue.
Nevertheless i say thank you for your efforts.
Of course it would be great if you could find out a solution for this. May be this is a configuration alternative that has been forgotten by the programmers. Everybody wants to secure the forum with a captcha, but in my case its just the reverse case: I dont need the captcha, because its an intranet where Kunena is used.

Have a nice Weekend.

Thomas

Hello again,

just to keep you informed: the recaptcha is always shown, if a user has less than two entries in the forum. Up from the third entry the recaptcha is not shown.
In the backend i didnt change anything, it is all set like described in the posts above.

Thomas

You can try the following:
First make in your database a backup of the table "_kunena_configuration".
Then in the Backend > Forum Configuration > Restore Default Settings.
Afterwards test whether the problem still exists.

Hi rich,

i have done this (restore to default settings) already before posting It didnt have an effect at all.
