Your instructions are wrong. Install is less than one minute, not 5-6 :-)

Installed and working fine - well easy :)
Can you do an addon for this if not to much trouble ?
post to mod room - posts saying new user has regged and in the post have the users email and ip (saves checking em in admincp)

Used to have this sort of hack on vb2 and liked it then.

cheers m8

:rolleyes: lol... make it 5-6 mins for those turtles like me.

yup, to post in mod forum, just add an extra query. I'll look into it for ya. :)

So what this does is, everytime someone registers, it makes a post with the exact same content, changing only the variable of the user's name in the title?

If so, might I suggest the feature of allowing the user to edit the post's content while registering?

great hack. i've always thought about how something like this would be totally useful. it'll actually help people get used to posting also!!! but i agree with kaotic in that is there a way for them to post their own unique message instead of it being a boiler plate message created by admins?

fatalsex 12-20-2004 08:21 AM

just perfect hack.
Its a first hack that i see , so you have 1 click install :)
GREAT JOB!
Have any others ? :)

I have a couple of queries (which I think will also benefit others here);

- What happens if we have 'moderate new users' enabled? Can it be made to only make threads for approved members?

- Can we designate a userid as the thread author? In my case we have a 'bot-admin' member for things like welcome PMs and such.
