    Hi,

    I’ve read through some of the threads on this. I think I have it all set up right and the tags show, but no images appear. There are also no images in my captchas folder.

    Please advise.

    With thanks,

    G

    geisterwerker,

    A few things to check.

    Is your /images/captchas folder writeable with permissions of 777

    CP Home ›  Admin ›  System Preferences ›  Captcha Preferences
    Are your path and URL correct?

    Is Require captcha with logged-in members?  set to yes or no. If yes then you wont be able to see the captcha in teh first place as you are a logged in member

    All checked. Seems to be something else. There is no captcha image.

    Do you have the GD or ImageMagick libraries installed?

    phpinfo() should be able to tell you. Or you can use EE’s server wizard.

    Create a new file with a text editor called phpinfo.php.

    In it place the following code:

    <?php phpinfo(); >

    Save and upload it to somewhere on your web server.

    Does that help?
