What would be the best way to integrate the Secure Registrations component into FlexPhotos Light?

I've been getting quite a few spam registrations as of late, and this seems to be a fairly simple solution to curtail them!

Hi,

I have used this component before:
http://extensions.joomla.org/component/option,com_mtree/task,viewlink/link_id,2605/Itemid,35/

It replaces the registration form and also has a login module that links to a registration form that uses a capture image.

Your question is a little misleading as you do not need to integrate it into the template but into Joomla, this allows you to change the template again if you want to. So the answer to your question is to just install the component and module as per the instructions on the developers site.

I hope this helps.

Thanks - that helped a bit, at least got me to thinking about it a little deeper.

FlexPhotos template includes a custom login module - I simply had to hack the mod_flexphotos_login.php file to point to the right component, changing the following code snippets:

Code:

index.php?option=com_registration&task=lostPassword index.php?option=com_registration&task=register'

to:

Code:

index.php?option=com_secureregistration&task=lostPassword index.php?option=com_secureregistration&task=register'

So it now points to the Secure Registration Mod. Now it looks and behaves just like the JJ-Supplied Login Mod, only with the Captcha feature that Secure REgistrations provides Thanks for the response, and if you can think of anything else that needs changing, please let me know!!

Yeah, I didnt think of the login, but what you did is perfectly correct, it is exactly what you had to do, so well done

Now I see why you asked about integrating it with FlexPhotos, mainly because the login is custom.

Glad you got it sorted, I cant think of anywhere else this needs to be changed, good luck with the spam monsters
