Anyone in the loop with DW news?

[(Anonymous)]

Anyone got the scoop on if DW is ever going to fix the captcha issue? I can barely comment here anymore because of it.

What's wrong with the captcha?

Re: Anyone in the loop with DW news?

More often than not it will not let me post and go to an antispam page where you have to enter the capatcha to prove you're a human, but the captcha is broken so in the end you can't post at all.

This has happened to me, as well. I wound up filing a bug report on June 9th, and the person at support was nice, but most of what they said was just:

"Sorry about the captcha issue - we're not sure what's going on with the server that issues those challenges. We're waiting for additional information. In the meantime, you won't be able to comment anywhere that a captcha is required unless the journal owner switches to using one of our other available captcha provider options."

I haven't had comments rejected in a while, and I would've felt like I was imposing if I asked Case to change how FandomSecrets does things. Especially because I could not tell if anyone else was encountering the bug.

If anyone else knows more, though, I'd be interested in hearing about it, too.

It doesn’t seem like they’re working on it tbh. I visit FS on my phone and usually have to switch browsers to get around the broken captcha.

Re: Anyone in the loop with DW news?

[(Anonymous)]

It might not be on their end, maybe it's whatever captcha provider they use?

Re: Anyone in the loop with DW news?

[(Anonymous)]

It is the provider they're using, but they still need to fix that!

Re: Anyone in the loop with DW news?

I don't have that issue but might be the browser I'm using(?)

Re: Anyone in the loop with DW news?

[(Anonymous)]

NAYRT But which browser? I tested the bug with a standard, updated installation of Firefox, and LibreWolf (a Firefox variant hardened for privacy that I use all the time), and the same problem turned up with both. Even being anon in F!S, but logged into a Dreamwidth account I've had for years, didn't help at all. It wanted me to solve a CAPTCHA, but wouldn't give me the CAPTCHA, so the comment was functionally impossible to submit.

Re: Anyone in the loop with DW news?

If you’re on a computer download an extension that bypasses captchas. That’s the official recommendation from DW and it’s just easier anyway.

Re: Anyone in the loop with DW news?

[(Anonymous)]

AYRT I will try this and see if it sorts the issue for me, thanks.

Re: Anyone in the loop with DW news?

Ty for this suggestion. I am often on my phonene so it won't help me most of the time, but I'll def check it out for my pc.
