 * The installation directions are there, copy the files and include the declaration. --Kenny5 02:10, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

I noticed that it was not matching any links, so I added this patch: http://paulproteus.acm.jhu.edu/tmp/omg

I believe it's due to changes in the underlying MediaWiki.


 * Yes, it was a regression bug and was fixed in the 18349 revision of ConfirmEdit.php. Vocaro 11:04, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

I can't install ConfirmEdit
How I can install only ConfirmEdit? I don't see any links. Kirill
 * Hmm... Have you read the page? If you want to have it installed on a Wikimedia project, open a bug at http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org --.anaconda 16:42, 25 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Sorry. I don't understand, what this extansionn do. I think that moderator can approve change articles. But I see - this simple check of work people, not spam-bot. :(

I tried installing ConfirmEdit as per the instructions on a Wikimedia 1.9.3 installation. However I end up with a blank page with no errors. commenting out the 'require_once' line in the localsettings file brings the site back to life. Any idea how to allow the site to show script errors so I can see what's going wrong? April 2, 2007. Todd
 * Never mind - forgot to install the internationalization file.

Special Pages Information
It would be nice to have some mention of how to create the Special Pages files for this extension, and perhaps a sample file.

skipcaptcha by IP address range?
Anyone know of a quick way to modify this extension to allow IPs in a specific range to skip the captcha? &#x2014;Alxndr&#x00a0;(t) 00:16, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

 * It works for me in 1.9.3. Try disabling all other extensions and see what happens. --Kenny5 02:08, 12 April 2007 (UTC)

Install question
I've been working on an upgrade from 1.4.7 to 1.6.10 (the best I can do without PHP5), and have run into a couple of things with this extension.

First, the captcha images I created don't render in the browser on signup. Here's example source:



I know the extension is seeing the images because if I change the path it gives an error about not finding them.

Second, the default language is Slovak (which is the last one in the FancyCaptcha.i18n.php source). Is there a quick variable I can change to fix this?

Thanks

Captcha trigger for uploads?
Is there or can a trigger be created for when someone attempts to upload a file? I've had a few vandals replace images on my wiki and ConfirmEdit has definitely slowed them down (thank you!), but the captcha doesn't come up when you upload or replace an image file.
