I want to create an AJAX-registration form on my Yii-project. So on every page I have a login-button, which shows a popup if the user isn\'t authorized. In that popup he can see
So, while I was waiting for help, I solved the problem by myself :) In my project i separated my controllers into the next hierarchy:
/frontend
/backend
All controllers for common users are (of course) in Frontend section, including UserController and MainController.
Yes, I wrote some configs to hide /frontend/ in URL's like this:
'/' => 'frontend//',
And i was sure, that string in my CAPTCHA config ('captchaAction' => '/user/captcha') knows where to go (and it was almost so!), but NO!
I should write FULL PATH to my controller and action like below:
'captchaAction' => '/frontend/main/captcha',
As I said in question, I placed my CAPTCHA action in UserController, but now you can see it is located in MainController (i deleted it from UserController)
And I got an error:
CCaptchaValidator.action "captcha" is invalid. Unable to find such an action in the current controller.
So, to solve this, I just had to use a property captchaAction of CCaptchaValidator in my User MODEL! Code:
array('code', 'captcha', 'captchaAction'=>'/frontend/main/captcha', 'allowEmpty'=>!Yii::app()->user->isGuest)
So, now my AJAX Captcha validation works correctly where I want.
Good luck with Yii's default CAPTCHA, dear community!
