Bug in Comment Feature, PMF 2.6.5

Post by dajoker »

In my fresh 2.6.5 setup I cannot submit comments. I get a nastygram about not having specified all of the fields I should have (name, e-mail, comment, and captcha) though I have. I am seeing this in multiple browsers and the error seems to be coming back from the server so I do not think it is browser-related. Any ideas how I can troubleshoot this in the best way? I've gone into Configuration and enabled comments on "new FAQs" whatever that refers to, still without any luck.

Thanks,
AB

Hi,

I checked it on some of my test installations and it works for me. Do you use a strange e-mail address? Does it work if you disable the Captcha?

Hmm.............. well, maybe it was something I've changed since earlier but I'm guessing the problem was with the CAPTCHA. I have left it enabled and it still works though once in a while it does not and it gives me that general message about a missing field. Perhaps it would be helpful if the message stated which of the fields was missing specifically.

Sorry for the false alarm. I'll update this thread if I can reliably reproduce it again without my fat fingers on.
