I run a gaming clan off of my VB forum and I would like an add on that allows me to add things to the registration process, such as:

Console you will play on

Xbox ID

PSN ID

I have attempted to use DBtech advanced registration system but it is confusing to me.

I would also like all new registration forms to have a topic automatically posted to a certain forum section (for members only to see)

You can do that in vB by default, ACP --> User Profile Fields --> Add New User Profile Field

That will put it in the registration for new membership?

If you select, Field Required, Yes, at registration and profile updating

What about all people that register it automatically makes a thread on a particular part of the forum?

The only mod I knew of for vB4 seems to have been abandoned, so I don't believe that is possible at this time.

You can use Welcome Thread Redirect (on registration) by BOP5 (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=258035).

But that does not create a thread, only redirects them to one.

You're right ozzy47.
Didn't read the whole post. I appologize.

i've searched again and couldn't find anything else.

Yeah it seems like there is no longer one, I might just have to throw one together.

So there used to be one but it's no longer online? Damn I could really use one to help with organization.

So I did that and it only requires it once you already have a account, not during the actual registration process before the account is even made.

For the Required Field you need to choose, Yes, at registration and profile updating

In about half an hour or so, I will be releasing a mod, that will create a Welcome Thread, I will post the link here when it is available.
