TOPIC: Activate CAPTCHA after X attempt?

Activate CAPTCHA after X attempt? 12 years 5 months ago #20074

Hi all.
I am trying to use this feature in the Active Scanner section "Activate CAPTCHA after this number of failed login attempts" but I cannot see any CAPTCHA even if I try to login 10 times and it it set to activate after 3!

How do I use this feature and could this have something to do with JomSocial being main login provider?

Thanks,
Michael

Hello Michael,

This feature only works for the /administrator section. If you place your cursor over the field's label you'll see a description that states:
"This will prompt a CAPTCHA security code in the /administrator section. CAPTCHA will appear after the number of failed login attempts you specify below."

Thank you. This must be considered as a really newbie mistake :cheer:

But it could be quiet cool to have this in the front end as well

Hi,

tried the captcha with 3 times ti failure for the backend, but no captcha can be seen.

I was trying this on joomla 2.5.11 for a client of mine (wich php 5.3).

What can I do now?

Hi,

I installed the newest version. My client bought the software and I installed it to his joomla. I activated after 3 times. Then I tried to get the captacha, but nothing occurs at the backend.

What could it be?
