IntegraMOD

How does one:

1. Remove the use of the security "validation code" part of the registration

--or--

2. Edit the graphics, because no one can see them clearly.

HELP!!!

you can adjust the image quality in acp/General Admin/ CAPTCHA Config

Going to that command/link in the ACP returns a 404.

check /phpBB2/admin/modules make sure the file is there.

If it is check the .htaccess, if you don't have one in that folder, keep moving up a folder untill you find it.

Okay, looked for the .htaccess file and it's nowhere to be found.

Okay, how and what next?


Thanks for the help, by the way.

If you can't find a .htaccess and you did find the file in the folder using ftp. You will need to put a trouble ticket with your host.

your url don't change, it's .com no matter where you go.
I would guess rules maybe security mod, could be .htaccess they may have it 1 folder above your access.

I like what you have done with the forum, really clean looking. I haven't touched one of those machines since coding graphics using open turtle... on a 2e.

Uhhhh... okay now I'm really lost here. What are you telling me to do, with opening a trouble ticket? None of my folders have an .htaccess, not even the / folder. is there a template file I can use? I've never had this problem with any other phpBB type package.

Now, there are other links, such as the Pirillan config. (Which if I remember, has never worked and always returned a 404 also.)

could also be a cookie or .script path issue. does every page (including admin links) begin with http]www[/b].yoursite.com ?

No "www".

What is the path to alter the graphics? Or better yet, what fast solution is there? Shall I go through the entire ACP and list all the 404'd links?

No list, the 404 error is probity coming from security, if your not doing it your host maybe has it setup and controls it. They all do things different and they may not allow you access, except trough them.

Yea helter his whole site works like that always http://www.yoursite.com it shows no folder changes or file names.

Where are the graphic files located, please?

After contacting my host, they tell me, that the software in question [yours], should have it's own .htaccess file to govern all folders and subsequent child processes.

Any ideas on how to get these 404 pages working?

(Thanks for all the help, thus far.)

it does have several .htaccess files. the problem you will have with editing them is that on most server setups, you cannot see them once they are updated. You must edit a new one and reupload it, overwitting the existing one.

fter contacting my host, they tell me, that the software in question [yours], should have it's own .htaccess file to govern all folders and subsequent child processes.

Thats not completely true, you see the .htaccess file is part of "apache server" and not "PHP".
This is what I meant when I told you each host has it's own rules.
Well the good thing is they allow you to use/mod it. The bad part is you'll need to learn about it. This is a good fast tutorial, http://www.java.scriptkit.com/howto/htaccess.shtml

*** Edit ***

once you have read that and know how to save/name and a little about how they work try this and see if it works.



You have to keep your forum as safe as you can, this will allow the server and you access to that folder. By placing it there you will not effect any higher .htaccess, thats important as helter says you can't see the others! I sent you to find one included in the forum package yesterday!

As you may notice it would be easy for a php coder to block all but the server.
But for him to add just you ?
