Language in captcha image

[Gloria2]

How can I change the language displayed in the captcha image to tell
visitors what to do? I'm based in a Greek speaking country but the
site I'm developing is in English. At the moment I don't think people
will understand what to do.
Grateful for a pointer.
Gloria

We have started rolling out a change that automatically detects your
user's language if the "lang" parameter in the RecaptchaOptions is
left unspecified. If you are developing in a particular language or
wish to override the language of the reCAPTCHA widget that your users
see, you can set the "lang" parameter accordingly.

Our customization documentation should be updated to reflect this in
the next few weeks.

For Greek, the language code is "el". A demo of our test
implementation can be found here:

Actually, my problem is that I want the captcha in English, but
because my ip address tells you that I'm in Cyprus, I automatically
get the explaining text on the captcha image in Greek. When generating
the key, I was never given the option to choose language, so even if I
should make a new key, how can I make sure it will all be in English?

The captcha images should be in English (or restricted to the English
alphabet and numerical digits) as we are not currently processing any
Greek books. Symbols and formulas may occur at times as the content
comes from old books.

If you set your RecaptchaOptions lang parameter as "en", your display
should be in English. For example:

var RecaptchaOptions = {
lang: "en",
tabindex: 1,
theme: "red"
};

Yes, I realize that and I want to set the recaptcha parameter to "en",
but how do I do that? I can't find the page where I can choose to set
any parameters! When I press "create a new set of keys" I get taken to
a page where I can specify the domain name but nothing more!
I'm at a loss here. / Gloria

In the javascript of the page you're displaying the captcha on - it's
not an account setting.

describes it, among other changes you can make..

Hi there

I don't believe this is working as described. I'm looking after a
number of sites that use the "lang" parameter in the RecaptchaOptions
and it no longer has an effect. Changing the browsers preferred
language does.

My understanding of how it should now work is:
No lang parameter - automatically detect language (from headers?)
"lang" parameter set - use that language regardless of browser lang

One example is https://www.spn-online.com/ftuser/register

Cheers
Bruce

You have started rolling out a change on January 30, 2012.... right now it is NOVEMBER 23, 2012 and the feature is still not working... are there any updates/estimates on that?

[Nikhil Patil]

I am new to this. I am using a custom theme. but changing the language does not seem to change the text for "Play sound again" and "Download sound as MP3".

What must I be missing for the custom theme implementation?
