I've this strange issue. When I upgraded one site from v1.1 to v1.2 with Captcha enabled and using the Greenleaves templates, this is how my Captcha looks like on my Submit Page.

Please ask your hosting to enable GD lib for you. It seems like you do not have it installed

It's on my dedicated server and I've just checked, GD is enabled in Apache. I will recompile and see if it works.
** UPdate : GD has been installed but still the same problem.
Here's taken from my PHPInfo

Hi eddy,
I had the same Captcha problem as you experienced. I checked with my hosting service and they told me everything seems to be OK. Later they found the .htacess file in my Plugin folder had a line deny access all. They deleted the line for me now the .htaccess file has nothing inside it. And Captcha is working now.
See if you can solve your problem in the same way!
Regards,
Jianjun

Thanks Jianjun. That did the trick :)
Ah, well, it appears that v1.1 added that .htaccess file which caused the issue.
Thanks barry :good:
Will make this a sticky.

Thanks for the tip :)
I checked our Pro 1.2 archive. There is no any .htaccess file in plugins directory. It's possible it is created by default when you create your directory. But this seems to be strange.

Simon........... it's in the Pro 1.1 version.
Also, when upgrading to Pro 1.2 from Pro 1.1, we need to delete the plugins/simg folder as I think it's no longer needed. You'll get errors when clicking on the Modules tab in Admin, because it calls for a meta.php in all of the plugin folders, and that one doesn't have one.

Loren, The v1.2 only works with the Greenleaves theme and if you are not using it, it would not work.
Hey! I must say you have a very nice site there :)

Hmm, now this must explain why some features are not working with mine. I use a customized "Reality" template.
Greg, is there a repository of the codes that could be added to add the new features to a customized template?
Thanks.

Good catch. I just deleted it and my modules tab works fine in my admin panel now.

I believe guaan mentioned he was going to try and update his templates next week if he finds the time. No list of repository of the codes.
