When the update comes out, or activate before activation email.



Calm down I have a life, This a free modification.

It will be out soon.

Hi. Thanks for this addon. I was searching quit a long Time for this, but i still have some probs.
I was register a Test Nick on my Testforum. I also have installed [AJAX] Advanced Forum Statistics where i can see the Link, but when i want to follow it i just get an Error. Just take a look by yourself. You can reach the TestBoard by now at http://test.brainlag.eu/

This are my Settings:

Create thread before or after email activation - No
Thread Moderation - No
Forum ID - 1
Post icon(s) with new thread - 7

Rest is default

I dont understand whats ment with Forum ID.
If i want the Thread(s) to be posted here http://test.brainlag.eu/forumdisplay...kanntmachungen means i have to enter the 4 then?

Thanks for helping me. Appreciate

this is a super mod that works like a charm

Installed

Nominated for MOTM

Yes please use forum ID 4 if that is the forum where you wish they would be posted.

Cheers, works now. It would be nice to have an option (yes/no) to redirect the User straight to his Welcome Thread

Just an update, I got busy at work but I should have a update by sunday.

Would it be possible to have the username in the welcome post link to that user's profile? Thinking along the lines of an introduction, I thought it would be nice to have the username link to that user's profile so others can see more info on the member...or prompt the user to update their profile?

I totally forgot to add that as I was going to in this release. I will see if I can fit in with this release. I was packaging it up now but I will wait till tomorrow and try to get this added. So I will release the new code tomorrow evening (EST).

Sorry no update guys I promise its coming soon.

We got pounded by 3 foot of snow and I have been nothing but digging out for the last few days and needless to say there is no where to put it all. We are getting another storm Tuesday with another foot and more Thursday. So I do not know when I will have time to look at any of my mods at the current moment.

Thanks for this Mod i am using it on 3.8.4 and works great and also love that now Sigs are showing Thank You.

This hack went berzerk on me and started a bunch of threads welcoming "unregistered," as well as new registrants who had not yet clicked the confirmation e-mail, even though I had set it specifically to do that.

Is this a 4.0.1 glitch or is it the hack itself?

How about you read a little, It might do you some good. I am sick of answering questions that have already been answered a thousand times.

I will no longer support people who are to lazy to read.

Well excuse the hell out of me for missing it.
I will no longer deal with hacks by coders who throw a fit when someone asks a question.

Uninstalled.

That works for me!!! One less lazy person to support. It isn't that you over looked it, You did not bother to read at all. It is in the very first post of this thread and several other places in the thread. I spend my time building these modifications and some of you can not take the time to read a thread. But you surly complain about a bug that has been reported several times.

I always have to answer the same question over and over.
We provide these mods free with free support the least some people can do is read the thread. That would save me time having to answer the same question over and over.

Installed.

It works a treat, but I get 3 welcome messages for the same new user.

I think thats in hand and something to do with a hook with vB having read through the post. It wasnt that hard really to read through the posts!!!!!!

Will wait and see what happens.

Meantime I can delete the other 2 welcome threads causing no hassle.

Cheers BBR-APBT (strange name lol)

Keep up the good work!

mate read back on the most recent posts..dont only read your post.....scroll back and you will find the answer..these people make these mods for free ..your question is answered 20 times in other posts and a correction is added .STOP BEING LAZY lol

Thanks BBR!

Very nice mod :)

BBR-APBT, the fix for the known bug highlighted in your opening post will be released when vB have added a hook you say in the next vB 4 release? What about for those running the 3.8 series?

This plugin works like a charm on the 3.8.4 so far but I am guessing they won't be making anymore changes to the 3.8 series except basic bug fixes so I am guessing we'll have to apply a fix which requires a manual edit? Correct?

Can this pull a profile field and add it to the thread content ?

Thanks

In the release I am fixing to release in a few days. I said that before but I am no longer waiting on vBulletin to add the hook you will have to manually add it. Give me a day for testing I will have it released I been playing with it on my live site.

Im looking forward to it

Same here. :)

great mod but nothings happening if an new user has register i do someting wrong ?

thx

The forum with the ID of 1 is most likely a category.

Double check which forum you want the welcome message posted in.

Thank you , it is very much appreciated.

If possible , can this new user then be subscribed to the thread automatically ?

I will look into that as I am working on it now. That is a great idea.

thx but now i get this if i click on the making thread:

That's a really neat idea! :)

I look forward too it! I am really missing my intro field being popped in to the intro threads.

I also second the ability to have the new member automatically subscribed to the thread if possible!

BBR-APBT:

For a future release, can you make it so their username in the thread is linked to their userprofile?

This might be a dumb question, but I can't figure out what to enter for the ForumID that i want the thread to be in. I assume it is supposed to be a number, but I can't find any numbers associated with the Forums other than the Display order.

Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.

I dont know but my thread smilies icon are all over the place, sometimes it will start a thread with a sad :( smiley which isnt part of the smilies I've given in the option.

Please help on fixing the thread icon number.

When you browse a forum (but not browsing an individual thread or post) look at the URL in your browsers address bar. The number the prefixes the forum title is your forum number.

For example:- www.example.com/forumdisplay.php?p=25-My-Forum-SEO-Friendly-Title

Then the number 25 will be your forumid ;)

Hi, BBR!

This is an outstanding mod. Thank you!

I'm using 4.0.2 and having all of the issues mentioned when set to post after activation. Multiple posts, posts for Unregistered, and posts for people who aren't new. I see a hook called register_addmember_complete. I'm wondering if that's the new hook you mentioned, and, if so, can it be added somewhere else as a temporary fix? I know you're a busy guy so I don't want to ask when the official update is coming. ;)

Also, seconding (thirding?) the suggestion to automatically subscribe the new user to their welcome thread so they'll know it's there.

TY again for all of your hard work! :)

Hi, So strange.. it opens threads and mentions welcome guest... as I assume guests don;t register, so is this a bug ?

I even did, after email conformation, to open the thread... but still a problem ;)

Please advise and thanks.

Nothing on this.. ?

The welcome guest is a bug. I had this installed and have been waiting for the fix then got tired of waiting so I uninstalled.

thanks ....

Greetings!

I've been using this mod for quite some time. It appears however with 4.03, the threads are placed into moderation? I have checked my forums and the user for any moderation issues, didn't find any. Just curious if I am the only one?

Ah I got it...
Appears the posts are coming in initially as "guests" and ofcourse guest postings are moderated. I see this is addressed in earlier posts, but I wasn't having symptoms until 4.03. Oh well...
