check 2nd db before creating user

[glaird]

I'm wanting to do a check in a secondary vBulletin database to check if a user exists before a new user account is created. Obviously vb must already does this to check if a username already has been taken. I just want to extend this so that it not only checks it's own database, but another one as well.

The reason behind this is I have two almost identicle sites for different geographical locations. Down the track I will want to merge them (amongst doing other things).

I'm guessing it will be a query placed in class_dm_user.php... is this correct?

thanks!

ok, have got it working... it was in that file... about line 345.

You should need to edit files...you can use one of the hooks on the register.php page.

I think its something like addmember_process or register_*
