 Hi,
I am getting a zillion spam users. I have attached a shot of the user page. Is there any way to add a capcha form to the sign up process? I used the longer form and prefer this simple sign up proocess, but the spam as a side effect is a bad situation. I have limited Joomla skills. Any help would be appreciated!

That seems to be unrelated to Event Gallery.

Maybe this helps: https://docs.joomla.org/How_do_you_use_Recaptcha_in_Joomla%3F

Hi Sven,
I enabled the Captcha-Recapcha plugin and used lucideye.com as the url for my google key. 
 It seems to have done something to the registration form as it now just returns an error. Warning

Empty solution not allowed.


I've tried it many times and have filled all of the fields out except the avatar and url (as they are not required and I never filled them out before). The form has always worked, but it's not working now. I've attached a screenshot.
It seems to work just fine without creating an account. The order goes through and I get the email. The way my site works, I don't need people to create one anyway. Is there a way to eliminate the ability to create an account in a global way so they can just purchase as a guest (very simple).
Thanks for any help you could give,Karen

We're still not talking about Event Gallery, right?

The screenshot is missing but I guess you missconfigured the recaptcha plugin.

You can disable user registration in the component options of the user component in the back end.
