I downloaded ReCaptcha and copied the UmbracoContour.FieldTypes.ReCaptcha.dll and Recaptcha.dll files to the bin folder. I also copied the recaptcha-example file to the Umbraco deployment as well. However the ReCaptcha data type is not appearing in the form which I am setting up in Contour. What have a done wrong or what do I still have to do so I can add a ReCaptcha field to my Contour form?
As far as I know, the recaptcha control is not included in Contour, that's why I pointed you to the documentation on how to create a field type for Contour. :-)
Are you still having problems with this? I ran into something similar a while ago, as long as both dlls are in place, it should just get picked up. If it's running on IIS, you could try restarting the website to kill the app and see if that refreshes is.
Ahhh. In the project for the DLL, update the references to use the latest Contour DLLs, and rebuild, it might be that a method has been re-named, there were some changes made a while back where some methods were renamed. If you get build errors, you'll know that's the issue!
I tried this before but I will always try something again. Copied the Dlls again and recompiled but still nothing. Don't know what else to try. Can't the next version have this as a standard feature?
I think you're not copying the .dll file, i had the same problem, make sure you copy the Recapthca.dll and not the other file with the same name. there's another file i think it's db file with the same name, i was copying that file instead of the dll file, that's why the datatype didn't appear for me.

Check out page 10 of the Contour developer documentation that describes how you can add a new field type.
Hello Sebastiaan
The ReCaptcha control has already been written so I don't understand how this information on writing a new control will help me.
I am looking for information on how to install it so it shows up properly.

Sorry I am referring to the ReCaptcha control which was mentioned in the other forum post.
Hi Simon,
Are you still having problems with this? I ran into something similar a while ago, as long as both dlls are in place, it should just get picked up. If it's running on IIS, you could try restarting the website to kill the app and see if that refreshes is.
It worked on 1.0.9 but when I uninstalled and re-installed 1.0.12 it stopped working. I will try again and see what happens.

It would be cool to have that as a standard feature! Hopefully either Per or Tim G is reading this.
