I want to use reCAPTCHA for my comments section. How do I do this?
Here is the website, if you don't know it: http://recaptcha.net/

By the way; this news script is great! I always have been a dedicated user to fusionnews, but N-13 news is so much better. Especially Friendly URLS! THANKS!

OK I will make this happen over the weekend. I'll also look into your other post about the ratings form not working.

Alright I made a crude implementation of recaptcha. First thing you'll need to do is download the new files

index.php
config.php
recaptchalib.php

From here

http://code.google.com/p/n-13news/source/browse/#svn/branches/34recaptcha/news

Edit config.php, towards the top you'll see

Code:


//Recaptcha keys
$publickey = "...";
$privatekey = "...";

Change these to your own keys that Recaptcha give you when you sign up.

Enable image verification on the comments form, Options > System: Use image verification on comments form: Yes

Now just edit the template you're currently using, expand the "Comments Form" section, remove the default security key image and add this tag

Code:


{recaptcha}

And hopefully the recaptcha should work.
