fleabag Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 (edited) I made 2 posts today and both times had to prove i wasnt a robot by ticking the captcha page.

0 charic Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Are you on a VPN? It's basically the new site learning what is "trustworthy" behaviour. I get it too and find it frustrating, if you can screenshot the code we'll be able to dig out the reason and possibly eliminate it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 fleabag Posted December 19, 2017 Author Share Posted December 19, 2017 It never happened again Charic, so cannot screenshot it for you. All appears well on the western front now No mate - i dont use VPN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Silvia Bluejay Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 (edited) I get asked to click a box in the Captcha almost every time I post! Edit: not this time though. I think it asks me when make my first post on the computer in question. Edited December 19, 2017 by Silvia Bluejay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Silvia Bluejay Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 (edited) Testing the Captcha from another PC Edit: no request. Might be a daily thing, appearing the first time I post, then no more hassle as long as I keep posting from a PC on the same IP address.

0 fleabag Posted December 20, 2017 Author Share Posted December 20, 2017 I might get the captcha tomorrow then - nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 fleabag Posted December 20, 2017 Author Share Posted December 20, 2017 No captchas today so i guess the site considers me safe. You fools ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 fleabag Posted December 20, 2017 Author Share Posted December 20, 2017 Aha I see the captchas are back when you edit a For Sale item. Made 2 edits and got 2 captchas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 charic Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 Did you manage to screenshot them for me? There should be a code telling us why Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Silvia Bluejay Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 I haven't had a captcha since I decided to take a screenshot when it happens! Maybe we've scared it away... If it happens again I'll grab it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Silvia Bluejay Posted December 20, 2017 Share Posted December 20, 2017 (edited) I got another captcha!

They look eggs akly like Silvia's but if every code is unique, what i can do is go edit one of my sales and see if a captcha comes up, and grab the code Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 fleabag Posted December 21, 2017 Author Share Posted December 21, 2017 (edited) The top half looks just the same as above, so i screen shotted the bottom half, but i didnt get that streetsign thing. I just have to tick the box ' i'm not a robot ' Edited December 21, 2017 by fleabag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Silvia Bluejay Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 (edited) @fleabag - I only have to do the street sign thing around half the times I get a captcha. No idea why! @charic - Thank you Edited December 21, 2017 by Silvia Bluejay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 charic Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 I've tweaked our security sensitivity, if it seems to be taking the fosters can someone give me a shout please (again having a screenshot is a HUGE help) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 charic Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Settings tweaked again Please respond to this thread if you have any CAPTCHA issues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 fleabag Posted December 22, 2017 Author Share Posted December 22, 2017 As of late Charic, i have only got captchas when i've edited a For Sale item. I'm going to edit another to see if they still pop up Watch this space Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 fleabag Posted December 22, 2017 Author Share Posted December 22, 2017 Ok, just got back I edited one of my For Sale items, and no pop up captchas - i edited twice just to be sure, but nothing.

0 discreet Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 I find the Captcha pictures confusing... sometimes they are ambiguous. What constitutes street furniture? Do they mean just the signs, or the posts as well? Does a shop front mean the shop sign or the flat above, too? How much of a car has to be in a picture before it counts? Does its shadow count? Gah!
