Version 2.82 released! | Peter's Custom Anti-Spam for WordPress | Forum

New features:

• Changed the default settings so that trackbacks and pingbacks are enabled by default.
• Added the option to send one or both types to a moderation queue (Thanks to Donovan for feedback and MtDewVirus for unknowingly providing an example).
• With TTF fonts, the font size will automatically decrease if the word is slightly too tall for the image box (similar to the version 2.8 feature but for height).

Download it on the plugin page, as always:

Now they're finally on by default, so… happy day!

Can you post a link to your site?

You could try hard-coding the border. Find this:

echo( '<input type="hidden" name="matchthis" value="' . $cas_antiselect . "\\" />\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t" );

And add a border attribute:

echo( '<input type="hidden" border=1 name="matchthis" value="' . $cas_antiselect . "\\" />\\n\\t\\t\\t\\t" );

That is weird. I tested your site in IE and the anti-spam field was at the bottom of the left column…

You'll need to use the manual insert feature in the plugin. Edit this setting at the top of the plugin file:

// Set this to TRUE if you will be editing your comments file (add this php line wherever you want the anti-spam image inserted in the comments.php file: do_action('secure_image', $post->ID); )
// Set this to FALSE if you want to use the default Javascript positioning
$cas_manualinsert = true;

Then, edit your theme's Comments file (comments.php) and add this code above </form>:

<?php do_action('comment_form', $post->ID); ?>

Chad — did you change this setting to reflect the different folder name?

// If you add a path, DO include the trailing slash.
$cas_fontpath = "wp-content/plugins/custom-anti-spam/";

Also, did you check out the diagnostic page in the admin panel? (Manage > Custom anti-spam)

Were the fonts uploaded in binary format?

Eek, I think I know what the problem is. Your free GoDaddy account tries to insert ads onto all pages that end in ".php". The plugin generates an image out of a php file, but because it has the php extension, GoDaddy messes up the code. So the plugin won't work unless you have a host that doesn't inject ads into php files :(

Is there a configuration area for me to tell the plugin where the GD library is located manually?

Unfortunately, no. The script actually checks for the PHP function "imagejpeg". According to the PHP docs, "JPEG support is only available if PHP was compiled against GD-1.8 or later." Perhaps you have an older version of the GD Library?
