Hi all,

I am using radiant CMS and I am trying to create custom extension and  
add recaptcha validation to it  
but when I call  
if not verify\_recaptcha(:private\_key =\> ‘aaaaaaaaaaa’)  
#add error  
end  
I get: undefined method `verify\_recaptcha’ for #Comment:0x4f4c460

Bellow is the full code for my model class

class Comment \< ActiveRecord::Base

validates\_presence\_of :title, :author, :comment, :message =\>  
‘required’

validate :check\_captcha

def check\_captcha  
if not verify\_recaptcha(:private\_key =\> ‘aaaaaaaaaaa’)  
errors.add(:title, ‘def error’);  
end  
end

end

Please someone help

10x in adance,
