I have a question about COPPA

I was wondering if we can edit COPPA to change the age restriction? We would like to change the registration of our forum to 18 rather than 13.

She didn't ask for a "how", she simply asked if they could. :)

I'd love to know how, and if anyone would like to share how I'd be grateful.

1. admincp --> Languages & Phrases --> Search in Phrases --> Search for the word coppa, change the 13 to 18

2. You will need to do some code changing in register.php as well.

Do you mean replace 13 with 18 in the "Find and Replace in Languages?"

I believe what I need is to edit the register.php

The line you probably want to change is on 174 of register.php

Code:

 if ($vbulletin->GPC['year'] < 1970 OR (mktime(0, 0, 0, $vbulletin->GPC['month'], $vbulletin->GPC['day'], $vbulletin->GPC['year'])

 <= mktime(0, 0, 0, $current['month'], $current['day'], $current['year'] - 13)))

change 13 to 18 and that should probably do it. Though I didn't test this so be sure to backup your register.php

You need to change all references from 13 to 18.
