I really like this great idea thanks again.

Thanks, glad ya like it, and thanks for marking as installed. :)

Excellent idea, that's something that was missing for a long time. :up:

Just to ask, if it would work with DBTech's AUT, if we use @ before variable, to mention user that his welcome thread is created? If not, can it be made to work with it?

Just installed and waiting for a new member to register ...been waiting for this for a while now ...thanks Ozzy !

Ok, just registered test user, to see if mentioning works. Sadly, it doesn't work. :(

I just added @ before variable for user name. It makes @ visible before user name, but it doesn't parse as mentioning.

Ozzy, could you make it so that it gets parsed as mention?

Thanks, glad ya like it, and thanks for marking as installed. :)

Did you happen to try, [mention]$username[/mention]

This makes things even worse. :(

I used test10 user to test with this code.

Result was that I saw only @, without test10 after @. But, when I check text, there's [mention]test10[/mention] in message.

Also, when I quote this text, I get same results, as with using BBcode, or just @ before user name.

And, if I post manually @test10 (without using quoting text made by mod), everything works as it should.

It looks like text made with your mod (or at least username variable) is somehow different from "normal" text that gets parsed normally and which works with AUT. I hope you understand this, it's hard to explain it differently, but it certainly is different kind of text, not sure why, but it just is.

Ok I will look into it, If I cant figure it out, I may have to ask Fillip at DBTech.

I dont really see a pattern in the usernames that are registering (Most have been bots). Its also been creating threads at random instances where no user has registered, and I have checked for new users when a new thread has been made.

Is there a possibility to make new threads when user has been validated from the moderation queue, instead of when they click their confirmation e-mail, as I've been having a lot of threads being created for bot accounts.


I've disabled it for now, because of the errors, but it's still a great function to have.
