can this be turned off so they don't have to perform this step

What is your forum version?

It could be that they are posting something that is triggering the anti-spamming system.

Sorry not sure where to get this info.

OK sorry,    I found the Forum Version It's phpBB3

Please try not to double post. Your posts should be separated by a 24 hour period. If you need to add something, press the edit button.

Is this happening every time when they post anything or posting something specific.

No it happens everytime they post, regardless of what it is

Please provide your forum url. =)

Hi,

What domain is the accounts email address? for example, hotmail.com, yahoo.com.au, live.com

Okay, I just took a look and as a registered member, it does not give me a confirmation code--it only gives me that when I am a guest.  Are registered members still having this problem?

I don't think so, It was designed so that guests could communicate with us about the club..... is this not possible.

It could be linked to our internal anti-spam system, just need confirmation

You can't add the CAPTCHA anti spam system because you need PHP , here it is an example

First part -

Code:

<form method="POST" name="contact_form"
action="<?php echo htmlentities($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']); ?>">
 
<label for="name">Name: </label>
<input type="text" name="name"
value="<?php echo htmlentities($name) ?>">
 
<label for="email">Email: </label>
<input type="text" name="email"
value="<?php echo htmlentities($visitor_email) ?>">
 
<label for="message">Message:</label>
<textarea name="message" rows=8 cols=30
><?php echo htmlentities($user_message) ?></textarea>
 
<img src="captcha_code_file.php?rand=<?php echo rand(); ?>"
id="captchaimg" >
<label for="message">Enter the code above here :</label>
<input id="6_letters_code" name="6_letters_code" type="text">
 
<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit">
</form> 

Validating - you can't add because forumotion don't allow to manage php

Code:

if(isset($_POST['submit']))
{
  if(empty($_SESSION['6_letters_code'] ) ||
    strcasecmp($_SESSION['6_letters_code'], $_POST['6_letters_code']) != 0)
  {
      //Note: the captcha code is compared case insensitively.
      //if you want case sensitive match, update the check above to
      // strcmp()
    $errors .= "\n The captcha code does not match!";
  }
 
  if(empty($errors))
  {
    //send the email
    $to = $your_email;
    $subject="New form submission";
    $from = $your_email;
    $ip = isset($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']) ? $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] : '';
   
    $body = "A user  $name submitted the contact form:\n".
    "Name: $name\n".
    "Email: $visitor_email \n".
    "Message: \n ".
    "$user_message\n".
    "IP: $ip\n"; 
   
    $headers = "From: $from \r\n";
    $headers .= "Reply-To: $visitor_email \r\n";
   
    mail($to, $subject, $body,$headers);
   
    header('Location: thank-you.html');
  }
}

I'm sorry for you but , out of PHP , you can't do that.
