Probably a stupid question but any benefits to running a quick reg and standard reg..
 

I have a quick mod registration and the standard registration also is active on the board. Any reason to run both? Pro's con's... or just pick one due to redundancy?

Bump

Anyone? Thanks!

i think standard registration is best
if quick registration will benificial then vb team must add as default in vbulletin

I've turned off standard registration on a couple new VB 4.x forums and it seems to have cut down on spam to only use the "really fast" registration mod I made.

Thanks! That is the mod I am using. How do I shut off the standard reg and will the glow host spam not work, since I assume it is not linked to your mod? Thanks again!

In Admin CP -> Settings -> Options -> User Registration Options, the first option I believe is "Enable Registration?" Turn it to "No."

You should also modify the default guest notice (also in Admin CP under "Notices") that tell guests to register and give them a link to register.php. Edit the notice so it tells guests to use the quick registration form above (or below) wherever the notice shows up on your site.

I suspect glowhost will not work with my mod, I never used it or tested against it however.

BOP - not sure I understand the part about "tell guests to register and give them a link to register.php". Since if the really fast registration is present why do I need a link to register? Maybe I am missing something. Please let me know. Thanks.

Yes, you're missing the context of what you quoted. That part is why you're to turn off the default guest notice - because you don't need it.

View your site as a guest- there is (or should be) a notice vBulletin shows to all guests telling them to register.

You should either edit or disable that notice- personally I would choose to edit it and provide better information since the link to register.php it has will no longer work.
