I have installed the standard feedback module, and turned captcha on - but the captcha image does not display. If I disable pageblaster in the web.config file the captcha image shows just fine. This leads me to believe there is a problem with pageblaster working with captcha. I had another problem like this a while ago with a different module vendor and he replied to me: ================================================================= Marc, It turned-out to be a bug in DNN captcha module. When captcha image is requested from server (through the captcha IHTTPHandler), developers fail to set "image/jpeg" as response type, while leaving "text/http". That makes our module think this response needs to be processed as HTML and the captcha image get destructed because of it. DNN developers need to send response type to "image/jpeg" to address the issue. ================================================================= I don't know if that helps. Can you please help me as I need to have captcha to prevent lots of spam messages. Thanks Marc.

You can add the word captcha to the exclude list in the Snapsis.PageBlaster.config file. path pattern="/admin/\|/host/\|Captcha" excludeFrom="All" />

I have noticed that when I am logged in, it works fine, and it works when I log out for 15 minutes or so, but after that it stops working and I get a "Image not Found" icon where the captcha image should be. Any ideas why this might be - the site is http://www.blogrelief.com/charities.aspx Cheers Marc.

Hi Marc, I have tried a few time, and I see it working when I go there. Is there any chance that you are running in a web farm, or web garden?

Hi, I have the same problem I have problems with Captcha and Feedback Module and even with the Dynamic Form from Datasprings. Actually, when I disable Pageblaster,captcha feature works fine. I have this in my Snapsis.PageBlaster.config It doesn't work I have Restarted the DNN with no success. I wonder if I have to do something special to activate the changes in the Snapsis.PageBlaster.config Settings: DNN: 4.8.2 PageBlaster: 3.3.2 Feedbakc Module: 4.4.3 Url: http://www.diseño-paginas-web.info/Pagina2.aspx Thanks Xavier
