Mmmmm.... are Captcha characters smaller than in RN 2.10.00 ?

</trainspotter modus>

Is there anyway to influence the size? Or should I start reading the README / HOWTO files?

Greetings!

I think there were issues with the width of the text going over the size of the image box. Probably why the characters were changed to smaller ones. I'm sure there is somewhere to set it, but I don't know off-the-top

Hey mine are so small they are invisible. LOL. Honestly, my captcha images are not showing up. I'm probably missing a script somewhere. Any ideas what I'm looking for?

Thanks!

I had an issue with captcha not showing. Check that the font files uploaded correctly - /includes/fonts

Let us keep this thread on track and focused on the character sizing only. There are numerous threads regarding the reasons for the captcha to not be seen or not working. ok?

Yes, we had to change the size as it was causing at times the full captcha to not be seen.

The changes were to the min and max in this script: includes/class.php-captcha.php.

Here is what used to be in the script:

define('CAPTCHA_MIN_FONT_SIZE', 16);
define('CAPTCHA_MAX_FONT_SIZE', 20);
