I like it, but there seems to be a loophole.

If you simply remove your birth year it will allow you access to the forum you've set the age limit on.

I have a question, when a user signs up they must input their age. That is the first thing they have to do. Can the hack not be based on the age they enter there, because that way they won't lie because they won't know that they have to be a certain age to view a certain forum (unless its not hidden and they have tried to enter).

It's a pain having to get them to put in their birthday in their fields and even then they arn't usually telling the truth. Let me know please :)

This is not that great of a hack. After they see the minimum age they need to be, they can easily go back and make their age older and register again in 10 seconds and become a member of the community.

Sincerely,

Is there a way to lock out the birthday after they have registered? So that they cant change it?

the only problem i found so far is that when u have birthdays enabled it doesnt inherit the input that u have added in the previous option and the user can is asked to reenter birthday and even that i select a birthday of less than 18 years old it got accepted. so its bugged

still no fix for this and its been a year :p

I have been looking for this and it works great for vB 3.6.8. Guests and anyone under 18 can not even see if an adult section is around, while older than 18s and registered can.

I installed it today and I checked it.
It's working ok, but the question of age appears again on the main registration fields area!!

This is a problem!

How can it be fixed???
