Added more plugins
I’ve added several plugins to the site. The latest, in an effort to thwart comment spam which I get almost immediately after making a post, is a human-verification plugin. Now, before making a comment, you have to type in a code presented in a graphic which is difficult for automated software to read. Unfortunately it’s also difficulf for sight-impared people to post comments but we’ll cross that bridge when we come to it…for now, hopefuly I’ll have little or no comment spam. We’ll see.
I’m having a hard time getting this to work–I get the grey box but no text. Apache error log talks about /path/to/wordpress/date_files/authimage.jpg not found.

I had the same problems. It seems that the PHP script is having a hard time finding the font file so in the peice of code that is placed in my-hacks.php, in function createCodeImage(), I changed
$font = "atomicclockradio.ttf";to
$font = "./atomicclockradio.ttf";so that it has a relative path. Go figure, it worked.

Ahh, I had to change a couple of paths but missed that one. I actually had to use an absolute path to get it to work. :?
Thanks!

No problem - glad it worked for you and that I’m not the only one that has seen the issue.
