I am pleased to announce the release of CAPTCHA v2.0 Plugin for Geeklog. CAPTCHA 2.0 provides an additional level of defense against spam bots. This new release builds upon the original gl-captcha hack and now provides easier installation and easier integration with Geeklog and other plugins. I

Beginning with CAPTCHA v2.0 there has been a joint effort with the Geeklog development team to add support for using this plugin with several core Geeklog features. Starting with Geeklog v1.4.1, if the CAPTCHA v2.0 plugin is installed, you can now enable CAPTCHA support for the following Geeklog functions:

• New user registration
• Post comment
• Email user
• Email story
• Story submission

This integration does not require any code modifications to the Geeklog distribution, support is there out of the box.

I am pleased to announce the initial test release of version 2.6 is now available for download. A number of key changes were made over the past few weeks since I posted that work had been underway. A number of volunteers assisted with testing and feedback refer to full story for more details.

Review the readme.html - for update and install directions. You need to be running a GL 1.4 or 1.4.1 site.

Please post any feedback and issues on my site in the portalparts support forum or on this site in the plugins forum

I am proud to announce the release of 774. This release contains a few bug fixes, some auto tag enhancements and several HTML validation fixes. There is a new auto tag, the img: auto tag - this will return just the plain HTML code for a Media Gallery image, no borders or other formatting is added. I have tried to identify and track down several HTML validation errors for the release as well. This release also supports the upcoming Geeklog v1.4.1 release with full support for using Microsoft SQL Server as the database backend.

For a detailed list of files that have changed between v1.4.5 and v1.4.6 see the filelist in the distribution.
