Search / Captcha Problems

[Nightwalker]

I understand the website is undergoing a big overhal and there will be many little bugs until the new site is working smoothly, but im only posting this so you're aware of any issues:

- In the forum search area, there is now a new Captcha part that needs to be entered before the search will work, however the Captcha/image is not being displayed, hence a search cannot be performed.

A CAPTCHA is a type of challenge-response test used in computing to determine whether the user is human. "CAPTCHA" is an acronym for "Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart"

New site is looking nice, well done BCUK!

Thanks Nightwalker.

This should only happen when you are not logged in, as CAPTCHA is only active for non-members to stop automated systems from searching.

We have added this bug to the list.

Very wise. I know how annoying robots can be and can ruin a forum!
