As far as I can see it is in fact not possible to use the CB Captcha Plugin version 2.x outside of the CB plugin framework, ie in another extension.
The error that I get most of the time is this:
Fatal error: Call to a member function get() on a non-object in /home/myaccount/public_html/mydomain.com/components/com_comprofiler/plugin/user/plug_cbcaptcha/cb.captcha.php on line 136
I was going to stick with version 1 anyway - I found a version 2 download somewhere but I am not a doc subscriber and I'll play fair. However I think it would be nice if the CB team would produce a version of the plugin that does work with other Joomla extensions and comes with a working example. Otherwise the popular extensions are doomed to mess up websites with a variety of captchas.
