Another Captcha Plug-in in Joomla - OSOLCaptcha
Previously, I used "Joo ReCaptcha". That is very a good plug-in. But ReCaptcha got a bug in IE. When its captcha text field will disappear when I use jQuery.blur() or focus(). I used superfish menu. It used these two jQuery methods a lot. When I show the sub-menu, then captcha text field will disappear. I have spent a day to fix it but I cannot find a solution or work around.
Thus, I gave it up. I used another Captcha Plug-in which is not using ReCaptcha. That is OSOLCaptcha. This is very similar with ReCaptcha, but it can convert captcha text to speech. This may be some accessibility issue. Besides of this, that is very similar with Joo ReCaptcha. You just need to install the plug-in, then it will works in Contact form, login and register form. That is good.

Javascript Errors in core.js - Joomla Administration Component
I am building a Joomla Component. I found there are some Javascript errors in core.js when I click the actions. I have found out these two variables are required.
Code
<input type="hidden" name="boxchecked"/> | |
<input type="hidden" name="task"/> |
Moreover, the form needs to be named as adminForm. That is because core.js has some javascript to do the validations. It will access your form.
Installation error - Could not create directory plug-in
When I install a new plug-in, I got this error:
"JFolder::create: Could not create directory plug-in"
Later, I found out the cause. The parameters in configuration.php are not configured correctly.
Please make these two lines in configuration.php pointed to the correct directory.
Code
var $log_path = '/home/user/public_html/logs'; | |
var $tmp_path = '/home/user/public_html/tmp'; |
