Ah k Thanks! ;)

Well, I was thinking a bit. :D

You could:

- Create new field in user table, let's call it already welcomed on installation and make it boolean (logical, only Yes/No)
- Put 1 (Yes) in all already existing users fields, so there wouldn't be new welcome threads for old users.
- When there's new email confirmation, check also if already welcomed field for that user is set to Yes, or if it is still No (0). If still No, create new welcome thread.
- After you create welcome thread for user, change status of his already welcomed field to Yes (1).

This would prevent multiple welcome threads when old users confirm new email addresses.

Installed and working great!

- with the new file of course! :)

Thanks Ozzy!

Not a problem, glad you like it, and thanks for marking as installed. :)

If you are ever considering new features for this mod, how about considering this?
The welcome thread/post reply content will be based on the new custom user field /or fields that is/are required on registration.

Hey Guys,

I use this great hack to create a new thread in adminzone and inform about new users.
But as you can see on the screen, sometimes the variable $username be empty. Im not sure where the bug comes from.

I copied the sam text to every title and body field in adminzone.

Maybe ozzy can implement a select what nubers used for create new threads, so i can say "use only template 1 and 2 for create new threads/posts.

Here the Screen: http://prntscr.com/3elg1w & http://prntscr.com/3elgbg

Thanks for quoting my post. Im also looking forward to this. this idea is much better. using templates looks really obvious to other members

How difficult would it be to add the ability to specify a tag like 'new member'

Update:

Please ignore my question. I found a different way to do it.

Great mod. I might end up using it.

Just a request: I would like to see this show their names and have it link to their new profile

Like where it says the name like this in the new post.

EXAMPLE:
Welcome CoZmicShReddeR, Glad you have joined!

I remember there was one here in the forums I used years ago that did that. I tried looking for it but cannot find it or I had it and it stopped working with VB4

Hmmm, I'll have to look into that and see if it is still feasible, which it should be.
