I would not consider this to be dupe content.

but wouldn't the search engines as they see the same thing over and over?

thank you

Tough call, your choice, not mine :D

Please click install if you use.

Installed ;) Nice.

Glad you like it!

Thanks for clicking install.

Uninstalled - It doesn't make a new profile comment to every newly registered member

Are you sure you had it enabled?

Thanks for this hack, but I could not get it to work.

I installed it, was enabled by default.

Created a new used via admincp, and then logged in with those details.

And it had no profile comment.

Waited 10 minutes or so , but still no luck.

Uninstalled.

Though it is such a nice hack, I really want it to get to work.

Do not register through admincp. Register through normal register.php ;)

:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D


You just made my life.

EDIT: Error SOLVED

I installed this on my vb3.7x site and i set everything up. I made one edit to the product file before I installed so that the profile message would only go out to new users that confirmed their email address.

I was able to register fine but I received the following database error:

Database error in vBulletin 3.7.4:

So how can I fix this? The edit I did to change the hook location was: <hookname>register_activate_process</hookname>

EDIT: I solved my database error by changing the suggested hook edit in a previous post back to defalt. The mod now worked perfectly and my new user has a great new automated welcome message!

THANKS FOR THIS! :D

Doesnt work for me - users are registered through joomla bridge, not vbulletin... can u make a fix? Ty.

I do not know how the Joomla bridge works, if you could give me more details I can look into it.

hello Michael Biddle,

i think i found a bug. i am running bv3.8.3 and i should mention have enabled email confirmation feature in vboptioins-->user registration options-->Verify Email address in Registration-->YES

i also should mention i created 3 test accounts to test your hack out. i went through all the steps to register normally - i.e. not trough admin CP

so what is happening is this...

user registers...
user has to verify there email...
i go to my email and click on the verify account link provided...
i am then given a message that my account is verified but i am put into a cue to have my account moderated by an admin. i.e. i am put in the (COPPA) Users Awaiting Moderation Usergroup...
but in my user registration options the Moderate New Members option is set to NO

i had to disable this cause i dont want members to have to wait to be added to an active usergroup

can you please test this out. i wonder if others have noticed this. thanks

i should also mention i have Send Welcome Email feature enabled (also found in user registration options). normally, when a user registers and activates there account, a PM is sent. but when i installed this hack, the PM was NOT sent because i was put into the (COPPA) Users Awaiting Moderation Usergroup which can not accept PMs by default. but the visitor message did go through

marked as installed*

Thanks a lot

users will register through joomla first, then they are automatically added to vbulletin user database as a new register... don't know if this mod will still work?

Thanks a lot for a great Hack, Michael..:)
Regards from Sebaldus..:up:

thanks in advance for you help

This mod will work on vb4.

- Mike :p

Awesome and very useful mod. Thanks!

Wow this is cool..installs

i have moved my forum url but now if i use this mod then he gets the old link from the forum , can you change the url ? and where ?

Thx

Is there an easy way to delay this comment? For example, xx minutes or x days after the new user has registered?

Sorry if I overlooked this. I think that would be superb.

Installed today and working perfectly on 3.8.4 PL 2.
Thanks to the OP.

This is just epic.. that's all i can and have to say. no bugs, works perfect.

Any chance to get this working for version 4?? I love this mod on 3.x!! Thank you sooo much!!

Does this not work on vB4? I have not tested it, however it should work the same.

Is there a way to add a custom profile field?

I like to have a 'first name' custom profile field and then use that to display the welcome message as opposed to the username.

nice work

Nice work, thanks

I was just looking for something exactly like this. Thank you. Installed and marked as such.

Excellent, running on 4.2.2

Clicked install.
Thanks.

Thanks for this great addon
