    Hi I tried and atctivated the Captcha function on the Settings/rsvp tab.

    The Text “fill in the code” apperars but where the codeimages is supposed to be its only a broken imagelink to the captcha.php.

    The captcha.php. is present on my server. What have I done wrong.

    (Had to deativate it since I have an add out for my events and need the bookings to work.)

    The captcha image only appears if you have the php-GD extension installed.

    Ok – yes but no.

    I mean How do i get that? Guessing its something that has to be installed on my server or is there a wordpress plugin.

    it’s a php addon, nothing to do with wordpress itself. If you don’t know how: ask your sys admin

    Well, there’re things wrong with your server: phpinfo() doesn’t show the variables _SERVER[“HTTP_HOST”] and others (maybe your provider removes those), that’s why the script doesn’t work.

    But it’s easy to fix: just go in the file wp-content/plugins/events-made-easy/captcha.php and remove the following 4 lines at the top (I don’t think they’re needed anyway):

    if (!isset($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']) || !strrchr($_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER'],$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'])) {
    
echo "no abuse allowed";
    
exit;
    
}

    That should help.

    Thank you but no – the removing of the 4 lines didnt do the trick

    Is there any way to make a field that simply is required and that only allows a spcifique word. And then just write that word… in the text or something.

    Not really no. I also include a hidden honeypot-field though, a spambot fills that in and then is caught (because I check that it stays empty).

    But in your case: check your webserver error logfiles. I see nothing when I go to

    http://annasbyra.se/wpx/wp-content/plugins/events-made-easy/captcha.php

    (after you removed the 4 lines), which means some error in your logfiles must indicate why …

    Thanks for all your effort! I will send this conversation to the provider.
