Remove 'agree to forum rules' step from registration
 

Removed

-Reserved-

Thank you!

Thanks its indeed better to have a Check Box (by default checked) @ end of registration form..

Excellent, I always hated that most people don't have time to read it anyway and most forums have thier own rules anyway..

Couldn't this bring up legal issues for the sites..?


I mean..if they have no rules to agree with..:(

great mod, i like it!

thank you

You could get round this by putting the rules in the FAQ and then putting at the bottom: "By registering and participating in FORUMNAME, you agree to abide by these rules"

:)

Thanks MaestroX! :)

When it says 'upload product', where do I upload it to?

Also, once I have installed it, will I need to do so again each time I upgrade vBulletin?

Hi Hensa, once you've downloaded the .xml go to your adminCP ->Plugins & Products->Manage Products ->[Add/Import Product]

No, installed products will continue to be installed after vbulletin upgrades.

Hope this helps :)

Thanks - got it working. :)

I've unsubscribed from this thread - will I still receive notifications of new releases?

Nope, so its probably best if you subscribe but set the notification to weekly. ;)

Okay - will do.

Very much thanks for this add-on, i were looking for it.

Now, how can I add a checkbox in the register page (username, password, email,...) to agree the rules?

Some like "I agree the rules?"

Open the register template, and find this line:

And right under it, add the following:

This will add the checkbox. But it will not verify whether the user agreed or not... :rolleyes:

nice mod would be nice to see it remove the Additional Information also.

I asked for this a while ago, thank you for doing this!

Sorry, haven't checked this thread in a while. Thanks ElfMage for the tips :)

:) Any time..

Would you run into legal issue if you just had a statement to the effect of "By registering and participating in FORUMNAME, you are agreeing to abide by the forum's rules."?

If you have any doubts it would probably be best for you not to install this product.

IMO the forum rules on registering aren't legally binding anyway (and are just as legally solid as the alternative method)

Thanks for this great mod! :)

This conflicts with having "Require users to provide a valid date of birth (1901 to current year)." set to yes. The D.O.B entry section for registration is before the forum rules. It's removed both that and the rules and now I can't get it back despite uninstalling this mod.

Any assistance on putting things back as they should be would be appreciated.

I have the same problem.

Fixed.

Excellent mod =)

Denied before 13 COPPA registration doesn't work with this hack...

Just what I needed, thanks.

Is there a way to make this work with 3.7?

remove these lines from register.php(somewhere around line 561)

and install and enable the hack. im not sure how to make it work but enabling that hack and removing these lines works.

the hack removes the rules page, but it dont make it so that its like the check box is checked in so then it says you did not agree to the rules, that code above is the code that says you did not agree to the rules.

this dont work with vb 3.7 i get this error

You have chosen not to accept the forum rules, so registration cannot continue.

Click here to return to the main forums page, or click the 'Back' button on your browser if you now want to agree with the forum rules.

has anyone managed to fix this for vb 3.7 b5?

it doesn't work for me too.. :(

Hi guys, this is my code, it is better than the above code

<div><label for="cb_rules_agre4e"><input disabled checked type="checkbox" name="agree" id="cb_rules_agree" value="1" /><strong><phrase 1="$vboptions[bbtitle]">$vbphrase[read_agree_abide_by_rules]</phrase></strong></label></div>

after upgrade to 3.6.9 this mod stop working for me. I get this error message when I try to register

same here after upgrade to 3.6.9 u can not register anymore.. :( no wonder i did not get any new members, good thing i check now
