Disallow registration when cookies not enabled

At our site we require cookies.
Avoid support issues by turning people away at the door.

In register.php find

PHP Code:


		
			
if (empty($_REQUEST['do']) AND empty($_REQUEST['a']))

{

    $_REQUEST['do'] = 'signup';

}

Replace with

PHP Code:


		
			
if (empty($_REQUEST['do']) AND empty($_REQUEST['a']))

{

    $_REQUEST['do'] = 'cookie';

}

Find

PHP Code:


		
			
if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'signup')

Replace with

PHP Code:


		
			
if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'cookie')

{

    vbsetcookie('signup', 'ok', 0);

    exec_header_redirect("register.php?do=signup");

}



if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'signup')

{

  if ($_COOKIE[COOKIE_PREFIX . 'signup'] !=  'ok' )

  {

      eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('manNeedsCookie') . '");');

  }

Finally, create a template which informs the user why they cannot register. You'll want to include some links to help them out....

would be better instead of having a template loaded to have an error message....

How would you incorporate that into this?

Boofo.. you're the one to ask... hummm

ok, let's see:

PHP Code:


		
			
    $DB_site->query ( "INSERT INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "phrase VALUES ( NULL, '-1', 'error_no_reg_on_disabled_cookie', 'The Administrator has required that all visitors requiring to register have their Cookies Enabled, to add more security to the board.', '1000' )" ) ;

...this will add the error phrase... i suppose Stewart can handle this in a install script or give the mysql in the howto.
and change this:

PHP Code:


		
			
eval('print_output("' . fetch_template('manNeedsCookie') . '");');

to this:

PHP Code:


		
			
eval ( print_standard_error ( 'error_no_reg_on_disabled_cookie' ) ) ;

I only asked so others might get the code they needed if they wanted it. ;)
