Dear users,
As usual, we come back with an improvement that should give an additional security key to your forums.
Indeed, given the increasing phenomenon of spam on the web, we decided to offer a protection against these spam bots in complement to our already effective safety devices to guarantee optimal protection
Therefore, a new option has appeared on your forums so you can activate a visual confirmation code for inclusion (CAPTCHA) allowing the forum to differentiate a human user of a robot, to ensure you that all registered users on your forums are human users.
This new option is available through your Admin Panel - Users and Groups - User Options - Confirmation Code - YES / NO
It will appear at the registration of a new member on the validation page password.
We strongly recommend you leave this new feature active in order to ensure maximum safety. However, if you do not wish to you can always disable in one click.
Best,
Forumotion team

I deactivated this. A long time member was getting the CAPTCHA stuff.

I just used this forum and very grateful for a lot. but there was little I wanted to ask. why the menu in my control panel is not the same as the picture above example?

@ padhitya : that is because your administration panel is not in advanced mode. Do you see the button next to "Simple" ? Simply click on that you will have the same layout as the one shown in the pictuire.
