Thanks ... :up:

Could have been worse, as you could have been using Latin like the old days for prescriptions ... ;)

That's great! How have you found activity/ posting rates to be with this installed?

FuzionIT 06-27-2007 12:21 PM

Installed :-) Great mod thanks but I'm having problems changing the registration message. I'm using 3.5.4. I get an error message when I try to change using the LGV system so I've changed it in phrases. The message still hasn't changed though. Any ideas?

BTW if you look at the viewing system, the message has changed next to where it says Register Take-Over Message Count and Register Block Page Count. It's not actually showing on the forum though.

This hack is not supported in the 3.5.x version.

Ok. A previous comment was 'The plugin will work in 3.5+'. Does not supported mean it won't work or does it mean no help is provided? I will be keeping the mod as everything appears to work apart from being able to change the registration message. If anyone can point me in the right direction to do that I would be grateful.

It should work fine (and is running on several 3.5 sites) but as I don't run or use 3.5, I can't offer support for that version.

That said, if you change the right phrase it should appear on your site. Be sure to check your translations and any other languages you may have installed.

This is a truly great mod Ted, nice work!

I just finished installing it at Lifesupporters.com and the one thing that I truly like about this mod so far is I no longer have the need for custom usergroup permissions for unregistered and users awaiting e-mail in some of my forum categories.

Previously, there were forums that I just didn't want guests to have deep access to simply because they are either off topic given the sites main focus or are complimentary in nature but still do not fully mesh with the site purpose. Now that guests have limited browsing capability, I no longer have to privatize or hide forums and configure the usergroups specially.

I'm keeping an eye on who's online and so far the only user that was blocked was me in Opera as a non-logged in member. Yahoo Slurp, Adsense and Google are all online currently and not one of them is experiencing issues (not that I expected any as I've already read and understood the various responses to spiders and cookie usage).

The only comment I would make is the install file makes reference to this:

Quote:

This plugin does a basic check to identify bots (Google, Yahoo and MSN) and will allow them unrestricted access; however, you may want to consider installing the Bots as Members plugin if you are concerned about other bots. This plugin does not apply to the vBulletin archive and will not restrict views to that portion of your site.
...I read over that entire topic and as great as it sounds, I'd never install it personally given the negative nature of that entire thread. It simply leaves too big of a question mark as to whether or not using it may or may not be considered cloaking which is why I shied away from it all together.

Lastly, this is another minor issue but I did notice earlier in this thread, one user commented on your update line (the first phrase on your install.html file):

Quote:

This article and its associated code was updated on October 7th, 2006
IMHO, it may not be a bad idea to either update this line or simply re-direct it to this forum topic so all users can see the changelog in the very first post. I only make mention of it as it can cause some confusion, at least for tards like me.

BTW, if you do happen to visit my site, please don't slag me for it's appearance so far. This site is over 3 years old but only 3 months old on Joomla/vB so it's still very much in re-build mode.

Thanks again for this great mod!

Lifesupporters 07-20-2007 09:12 PM

...I also thought I'd add for a mod that is apparently Not Supported, you seem to do a fine job supporting it here on the forums!
