I don't quite understand. If you are the site owner, than why don't you have access to the admin?

Captcha is indeed built into v3.1.x and is used on the contact forms (contactus and contact the owner).

Developer???

I do not have Captcha on either contcat us or contact customer...

It is a client site that i have designed for them, i have disabled the feature that shows the version in admin...

Why does my version then not show Captcha, is there an enable feature that needs to be applied.

Been so long since I touched V3, I cant give any specifics, but in later versions there is a setting in admin that turns captcha on/off.

Your best bet may be to search the archives here for older captcha related V3.X posts....

OK!!!...

I think i will give up on this one, not getting any where..searched those but there did not appear to be any clear solution...

Best thing will be to remove the form from contact page.

I still run a heavily modified v3.1.10 website. There is no admin setting for the Captcha it is on by default. I thought that there was, but can not find it in my admin, but it certainly displays on all of my contact forms.

The captcha folder lives in the includes "captcha" folder.
