Can you post or PM me the URLs? Let me see if I can figure anything out... I tested it on 3.8.7 and 3.8.8 beta but it shouldn't make a difference.

I had actually designed it from the ground up figuring I may one day add VB 3.x so when I went back it really wasn't all that much work.

The main difference is VB3 doesn't have stylevars so any customization needs to be template edits.

3.8.1: url removed

The other one 3.8.4 worked exactly the same way.

Thanks!

Looks like you just didn't rename the file correctly-

When I go here- http://www.msofficeforums.com/fast-register.php I get a vbseo file not found message - basically the file doesn't exist. That is the file it is looking for in your case. I assume you changed it in settings.

If the file did exist it would forward me to yur forum index (that is what the page does if you try to browse to it manually.)

Yes, you are absolutely right, I'm so sorry! Now it's working perfectly!

It's cool, we all have our Blonde moments. :D

If spammers use this and a fake email, does it still create an account and use an ID?

Yes it does, but they will never get their password to login.

edit to add, and I have blocked the top three countries that produce spammer accounts in htaccess, and that has almost completely stopped all spammer attempts on my site. I dont cater to those countries anyways, and only 1 legit account was ever made in my 9+ year history from any of them.

BOP,..

Just a question as a suggestion for addition.

I have not had this abused. I can view all accounts made via member list sorted by reg date.

But I am wondering if an acp log option might be a good idea. Something that would provide a chronological log in acp for all attempts, good and bad. Just for security sake if one were to want to take notice of ip attempts in the event abuse was attempted.

Thanks again. Love this addition. Works well.

I'll see about logging... there really wouldn't be any failed attempts though, just people who used fake emails and never signed in... I am planning an add-on or feature that runs a report to display such users- I imagine that could be part of the log.

One of your great mods BirdOPrey5! Definitely it will boost new registrations. Thanks for your efforts. :up:
