Just the italian language php file. I think it was the minimum as a thanks for this contribution. The zip ONLY inlcude the php file of the language. Thanks !

I wrote this package because I felt the mod needed one more feature - ability to easily refresh the image if the user feels it is illegible.

v2.9.1 Update Detail

* Corrected some typo errors in one of the files..
* Added “Refresh” button to image verification, to reset and refresh the image if the user cannot read it.
* Provided two options – a hyperlinked text version and a button version. Instructions to switch to button version included in this guide and also embedded in the affected files.
* SQL file updated to add new admin functions described above.
* Suggest removing a few symbol characters from the bucket used for creating the verification image (especially @ and +) because they can be particularly difficult for users to figure out when the characters are odd angles. Text is quite often partially cut off as well, and this makes these special characters even more difficult to read. Stock file left intact, but if you want to follow my advice, the file to edit is catalog/includes/functions/account_validation.php.
* Width of PNG image is inconsistent. Issue seems to be in validation_png.php file, but I do not have time to fix it and will leave for someone else. I believe there is an inconsistency in calculation of overall width of the image. If there is a formula error, it may explain why some characters get partially cut off.
* Updated files:
catalog/password_forgotten.php
catalog/contact_us.php
catalog/create_account.php
catalog/account_password.php
catalog/account_edit.php
catalog/includes/languages/english/account_validation.php

Caveats:

- I am a Level 2 PHP and OSC Noob. Could code have been written more succinctly? Probably. Do I care? No. It works.
- I welcome comments. Hope this is useful to others. :)
- English text only. Someone else please update the other langs.

Added workaround for cache bug in firefox (It ignores no-cache at times).
Fixed the bugs in the install for 'contact us' and in the included file.
Note I have not touched the account_edit.php, account_password.php or links_submit.php files, so they may still be bugged.

Modified code to display error if sid is missing.
Added function tep_image_captcha to account_validation.php for display use, as some have tep_image modified which can have trouble with the png.

FULL PACKAGE

Missed some lingering bugs in validation_png.php from 2.6, fixed, no other files effected.

Some values, or combination of, could cause failure, some were incorrectly set.

FULL PACKAGE

Re-Included the validation_png.php from 2.6 with some changes.
Modified validation_png.php so:
Full path to ttf font is included.
If the specified font file does'nt exist it will automatically revert to bitmap mode.
Characters wont be 'cut off' if size limits are exceeded.
Vertical position variations with ttf fonts occurs.
Randomization function is improved.
Added option to vary maximum character angle variation in admin.
In function account_validation.php Removed 'I' from character list, too easily confused with '1', but added a few other common characters. Removed pointless char replace.
Added instuctions to upload font files.
Personally I would only add the feature to create account and password forgotten, so as not to annoy logged in customers.

FULL PACKAGE

This is modified version of 2.6 with buggy bits removed.
Added code for password forgotten page.
Added missing install instructions.
Modified create account code, so once a valid code is entered it does not have to be re-entered if other errors exist on the form.
Personally I would only add the feature to create account and password forgotten, so as not to annoy logged in customers.

Version 2.5 traduite en français

The validation_png.php file has just been modified in line 30 :
define(ANTI_ROBOT_IMAGE_PHP_BITMAP_FONT, 5);
replaced by
define('ANTI_ROBOT_IMAGE_PHP_BITMAP_FONT', '5');

With this mod the validation code appears in the box. Well, well, 4 hours to find this ;-)
Hope it could be usefull for someone.

Hi

I have attached the updated SQL file along with the correct password_forgotten file.


Works great on my site, just tested twice to verify.

+add the next row in DB:

insert into configuration (configuration_id, configuration_title, configuration_key, configuration_value, configuration_description, configuration_group_id, sort_order, last_modified, date_added, use_function, set_function) values ('1066', 'Activate for Password Forgotten?', 'ACCOUNT_PASSWORD_FORGOTTEN_VALIDATION', 'true', '', '736', '25', '2007-04-04 16:56:45', '2007-04-04 16:56:49', NULL, 'tep_cfg_select_option(array('true', 'false'), ');

Attached full package.

This version adds additional configuration options to Admin and corresponding functionality to specify:

size of the validation image (or auto size)
foreground and background color of the validation image
use of Truetype or PHP bitmap fonts
Truetype font size
Use of various filters to randomise the validation image (noise, scatter, interlace, greyscale)

Drop in replacement validation_png.php file included which adds the functionality.
v2.5 to v2.6 sql upgrade file included.
If undertaking a fresh install you must run the 2.5 sql followed by the 2.6 sql.

The package also includes a pre-modded links_submit.php file which can now be enabled/disabled through Admin.
You must execute the indicated SQL in the corresponding text file "Add to links_submit page with admin control.txt"
included in the package to set the configuration option used by links_submit.php.

Hope you find it useful, Tone.

I needed a way for Links Manager to stop the spam.

Code for incorporating this contribution into the links_submit.php page and instructions was kindly supplied by Tone. Since I've seen others ask for this, I've added Tone's instructions to this contribution.

This is the full package version of 2.5 with optional links_submit.php page update.

I had no problems with images with this version, and had not installed the Hungarian language updates, so this version does not include the 2 previous contributions.

The image is not tag is not created when CONFIG_CALCULATE_IMAGE_SIZE is true, therefore I created made a few simple changes that allows this contribution to temporarily override this configuration directive.

Instructions (download the file to have on hand).

1) In includes/functions/html_output.php
a) Redefine the function tep_image, by replacing line 74:

function tep_image($src, $alt = '', $width = '', $height = '', $parameters = '') {

with

function tep_image($src, $alt = '', $width = '', $height = '', $parameters = '', $calc_size = CONFIG_CALCULATE_IMAGE_SIZE) {

b) Change the if statement on line 87 from

if ( (CONFIG_CALCULATE_IMAGE_SIZE == 'true') && (empty($width) || empty($height)) ) {

to

if ( ($calc_size == 'true') && (empty($width) || empty($height)) ) {

2) In create_account.php, account_edit.php, account_password.php and contact_us.php, find

$validation_images = tep_image('validation_png.php?rsid=' . $new_guery_anti_robotreg['session_id']);

and replace with

$validation_images = tep_image('validation_png.php?rsid=' . $new_guery_anti_robotreg['session_id'], '', '', '', '', false);

This is just an upgrade, the hungarian files only!

Install:

Just run the sqp script and copy the hungarian file to its correct place and enjoy! ;)

When customers type-in incorrect validation code, or skipped validation
code, they were sent back to the same page without any error message.
- Bug fixed - v2.3 SQL scripts set the reg_key in anti_robotreg table to
char(5). If you set the code length greater than 5, only the leading 5
characters will be stored in reg_key. This bug caused the validtion code
to fail if the customers type-in more than 5 characters as they thought
it should be.
- Added description 'Max Length=10' in Admin for the validation code length.
- re-write the Install.txt with instruction to upgrade from v2.3.

please don't use my last posted version on this contri but search for the "Anti Spambot for reviews" contribution instead if you look for the features of this nice contri in the review system.

For those who don't like to search that code, I attached it here

All credit goes to the creators of the validation forms - I just ported the code to be usefull for the review system

Especially when using the "guest review" contribution, your site and shop are rather vulnerable to spambots so I thought of modifying the "Anti Robot Registration 2.3 MS2"-code for use in the review writing.

add the spanish version whit the archive sql in spanish too

A quick message to explain the insall dodument is incomplete. If you follow the instructions they fall over.

The SQL file that comes with v2.3 is in german. This is a translation into english.

One quirk noticed in the program is that the anti-robot registration may not work the first time until you edit and then update for activate the robot registration. This happens even if the value is initally set to true.
Very useful program.

-Security code now inserted in account_password.php
-Bugfix

-Update install.txt
-german SQL and german account_validation.php File inserted

And:

Excuse John Parker, but I made and not the adjustment on 2.2 MS2 you. Anthony Chai aka chaicka made fixed . Thus do not do in such a way as if you would have made and mention that also in install.txt. And there is also German speaking user. Not only English speaking. Thus one can high-load the German SQL file and language file also. Thanks

Fixes from v2.1:

1. Original install.txt from v2.0 is incomplete, whereby the final portion of the code for account_edit.php is missing, thus will not display the validation portion when user edit account.

2. Reduce redundant codes for both create_account.php and account_edit.php changes which starts with the following line:

<!-- BOF ANTI ROBOT REG-->

-Minor spelling correction, format layout correction,
