First, many of my folks are having problems accurately reading the Captcha code and are getting very frustrated. Is there a way they can choose another code if they cannot read one?


Also, on the chat.........can I do a group chat? If so, how? Or do I just invite a lot of people to chat at once?


thank you! I think i am really going to like this once I figure it all out :)

New Captcha code can be integrated only and this would require code modifications. But the captcha Oxwall currently uses seems to be much easier to me than Re-Captcha. Oh, and also recommend your members trying Facebook's captcha - it's really painful to prove you're alive with their super complicated captcha =)


As for chat - try one of these plugins: http://www.oxwall.org/store/search/plugin?q=chat Maybe you'll like one of them and it would fit your needs.

Actually what is the Captcha that Oxwall is using?  I would use it on some of my forms instead of re-captcha...


Thanks.

I am looking for a way for member to send messages without having to use the captcha code before sending. Does anyone know how to disable this? Thanks

Celia, currently user is asked to fill in CAPTCHA field only if he is sending several messages (20 if I am not mistaken) one after another one.  This prevents your users from receiving potential spam messages.

Disabling CAPTCHA in "Mailbox" plugin requires custom code modification.
We do not recommend changing the code unless you are 100% sure what you are doing.

>>Does anyone know how to disable this

Since this is custom code modifications, I can not give detailed instructions.
Editing create_conversation_form.php (ow_plugins/mailbox/classes) is the right place to start with though.
