Hi Niko,

Thank you for popping herein.
I have followed this tutorial before installing Kunena for the first time and a few times after in order to confirm that I did not do something wrong.

When someone follows the tutorial everything works fine. The problem starts as soon as the J admin decides to add (and publish..) the CB Antispam plugin. If you add that and use the internal code its only THEN that no one can login from the Kunena login form (top of Forum). It just does nothing. No errors, no indication of wrong credentials...nothing. On the other hand, if someone decides to login from the now-protected CB login module, then everything works fine. As you imagine however when someone opens the Forums page its more likely to login from there than choosing the CB login module.

I have reported that to Kunena and they said they will be looking at it but I think you should look at it as well as it only happens after installation of the CB Antispam plugin.

I have put up a new Joomla site with stock template and only those components. Nothing else. Let me know if you want to login there but I will need your public IP since those sites are internal and I don't really want to enable public access yet.

Thank you

The Kunena team was kind enough to also bring that thread to my attention.
I have verified that if you turn on captcha for logins this will break your kunena cb login integration.

Community Builder -> Plugin Management -> CB AntiSpam -> Parameters -> Captcha -> Legacy -> Login -> Disabled

Disable login from Kunena. This is done by navigating to Components > Kunena Forum > Plug-in Manager > Kunena - Community Builder Integration > Basic then set "Enable Community Builder Login" to "No". Now navigate to Components > Kunena Forum > Plug-in Manager > Kunena - Joomla Integration > Basic then set "Enable Joomla Login" to "No". Login is now completely disabled in Kunena. Now you can strictly use CB Login module without having to deal with any possible login problems from Kunena.

Is this supposed to fixed or we will have to just use krileon's suggestion on disabling Kunena's login?

N

There's nothing I can fix. Kunenas implementation of CBs login form is built into Kunena. Typically they should just be rendering the first CB login module available like we do for our login page, but their implementation is outputting their own HTML form and doesn't fire our login modules triggers so when our captcha is used it's not present in that form. So the solution is to completely shut off login from Kunena or contact Kunena regarding the login form implementation. I don't know where their login form is generated or if it's even a CB specific form so I don't know what more to suggest in that regard.
