Thank you for your response. I would be grateful for your guidance in integrating the SI Captcha plugin with WP Members. From what I could find on ww.wp.xz.cn plugins, the SI Captcha was the best. So, I think it would be worthy of integration, or at least a way for your WP Members to recognize that SI Captcha is installed and maybe a checkmark to enable it. That would be the best. …Maybe easier said than done, but the good thing is that Mike Challis from the SI Captcha plugin said, “There are examples of this if you look at the code of my plugin.” I am hopeful. It would be a big help.
@cbutlerjr – thanks for your response. The problem, with this particular transition, is that not all plugins are totally ready and stable for WordPress 3.0. So, at this particular moment, I am waiting until the plugins catch up and then I will try test installations and test upgrades, before upgrading my site(s) to WordPress 3.0 and the supported plugins. So, in this particular case, I would have thought that your plugin would work with the latest 2.9.x release, since it was only very recent that WordPress 3.0 came out. Anyway, thankfully I was able to figure out what to change to get it to work with my 2.9.2 site.
Mike, thank you for your time. Much appreciated. I understood, after I posted my question, that it would take more work on your part and actually the wp-members plugin writer is really the responsible party for getting nice captcha’s (like yours) integrated. …The good thing is, this post is showing up in the wp-members forums because of the keywords/tags/title. So, hopefully they will take a look at this thread too and contribute. …I just spent a few hours localizing their plugin, so I am familiar with the code. But, based on experience with integrating other captcha’s with other programs, I acknowledge that it is “easier said than done.” …Hopefully we will see some nice integration on this one.
One of the problems that I saw with your plugin, in it’s present condition, aside from the actual gettext wrapping that I did, was that you need to be logged in with the language you intend to have the front-end interface (of your registration form) in, because once you install it, if you change your localization, it’s stuck in the db, unless you delete them and reinstall. I think this is a major thing that needs to be rewritten, if your localization is going to be successful. I am specifically talking about the “Manage Fields” section, under “Field Label.” Also, the “WP-Members Dialogs and Error Messages” works the same way, upon installation. Furthermore, you need to work on how the “WP-Members Dialogs and Error Messages” fields act with certain text. In Ukrainian, we use the apostrophe for words like Ім’я. I tried to use this in my localization and your Dialogs and Error Messages fields, here in the administration kept putting a \ before my ‘. That doesn’t work; it looks ugly on the front-end. If I think of other issues, I’ll let you know. But that is what I came across as I was working. Also, I had a problem with “get_user_meta” in your code. This doesn’t work on WordPress 2.9.2. It throws a rather ugly Fatal Error message on the front-end edit user details form. So, I had to change it to “get_usermeta” and it worked after that. You probably need to re-write this in your plugin, so that both can be used, depending on if you are pre-3.0 or 3.0 and up.
…subscribing
…I just rewrote your plugin and localized it for Ukrainian. Took me several hours, but it was doable.
