Great, thank you very much for the Script!

Only a little change: I would recommend to change the following line

to


because it's a required field.

Still works great, no spam-postings in Guestbook.

The only thing is, I still get notification-mail when spam is tried to be posted (with no success ).
How to eliminate those notifications?

(Notifications of non-spam-entries must be sent)

Weird because this stops spam before it gets to that stage.

The error message says it all. It cannot find the english.php language file in the lang folder.

Hello,

Carbonize, you tried to help me awhile back, but I was too ashamed (I suppopse) to come back and admit I wasn't able to do what you said because I just don't know how. I've spent hours in this post, having it open and copying/pasting from the instructions in this post, but I always get an error message and the changes aren't made. I really am a novice when it comes to PHP, and need step by step help I've finally had to admit it because I've gone from 5-10 spams a day to 10-100 a day. I spent too long yesterday cleaning out as much spam as I was sure was spam, but I'm getting sick of deleting all these spam posts (plus according to my web stats, some of these are being directed to my site from other guestbook entry pages somehow now !)

I tried a few times to add the script in the 2.2 instructions at the beginning of this post, but I don't have the right Guestbook Templates. This is what I have:

Advanced Guestbook 2.2

Guestbook Templates

- admin_enter.php
- body.php
- entry.php
- error.php
- form.php
- preview.php
- preview_entry.php
- header.php
- footer.php
- icq.php
- url.php
- aim.php
- com.php
- email.php
- success.php
- form_icq.php
- form_aim.php
- form_gender.php
- form_image.php
- com_pass.php
- comment.php

Am I even able to add the human verification test with this guestbook?

Help would be tremendously appreciated, I am so tired of deleting these spams manually, every day.

Thanks!

Hi,
The first post in this long thread - is it modified with all the changes from the other posts? Or should I go through an entire thread to create human verification test?
Thanks!
