[xwiki-users] Captcha validates but still Registers

[Campbell, Timothy D]

thanks for your reply,
 
I seen the thread posted and it worked successfully when it came to validating the captcha. The problem came where it validated and it correctly said it was wrong but still registered. It must be a logical condition error that I have done and will look into. Thanks for your reply and help. One question though, do you have any knowlege on what "$reg" is/does or where exactly does it register. This would be very beneficial in writing the correct condition.

yes this is the way its working currently.

Currently the captcha is not handled during user registration.
So either you would have to custom build it for your work or wait till it
gets added by xwiki team.

There was some thread on this where I had suggested what can be done to add
the validate captcha hook. Search the forum for "captcha" to find other
threads on the same.

Thanks
Sachin
