hadley,

Is it still not working?

I've gone through this hack again and applyed it to a fresh 2.2.5 vB. It is compatible with 2.2.5. I've also updated my test forum to 2.2.5 and this hack also worked.

Since the hack is mostly contained in one area of newthread.php, I'd start there. (Changes for moderated threads in mod/moderate.php are independent of the changes in newthread.php.) I assume the board still has emails enabled and other emails are working?

As far as forcing subscriptions on a user: Is it okay to hardcode the forumids? Or should the forumid list be controlled through the admin CP? Should users be subscribed on being activated? Or should users be subscribed on registering? If they are subscribed on registering, they will need to be able to access their user CP or you'll have some mightly "T'd" off users who can't unsubscibe themselves.
