I am attempting to fix all issues and get ahold of the addon developer to get permission to take over this addon.

Ok, my issue with this mod is, that while I love the concept, it is ripe for spammers to exploit...the problem is that I require email activation and this allows posts without activation being nweccessary meaning that anybody could make thread just making a false registration. Good idea but unpractical for my needs.

You are incorrect, if you have those set to go into a forum where its moderated and no one else can see it then how will spammer know it exists unless you openly state that it happens. Going into a moderated forum is safe and keeps spammers from exploiting it.

Here is a fix for Forced Intro on Register, this will fix all the of the listed problems above. If everyone likes, please don't hesitate to donate to help keep me and my site going for these type of fixes and addons.

Go to:
AdminCP > Plugins & Products > Manage Products > Add/Import Product

Browse to get the file then make sure you select YES for Allow Overwrite then click Import.

Enjoy
Steve

Anyone try the above revised product?

I have tested it on my test site and a live site. I will have the owner of the live site post here for you SVTCobra

:up:

Yes I can confirm. My newest members are now automatically subscribed to the thread that is generated during registration. They are showing one post and the are finding the thread and replying back. IT is an awesome mod

You can see my many posts above begging for a fix. I really needed this mod to work.

Steve M spent a lot of time working on this fix for me. Please help support his efforts by donating. Also if you are looking for a good coder for other fixes and customization to mods, PM Steve M. He does excellent work.:)

Thank you for that information. And a huge thanks to Steve M for the fix.

You are welcome SVT.

Working on 3.6.8 with new mod by Steve M. However look at the screen shot, next to Last Post, there is nothing. Just thought I would mention that.
