No support by the author.

This hack will send any new users a welcome PM. This will work in vB3 Gold and probably RC versions as well. I will give support for this hack (if it's needed) in this thread.

If you upgraded your vB version and you are using a hack version prior to July 8, 2004:
If you have upgraded vB and your hack version is not July 8, 2004 or newer, run this query (there was a problem with the prior instructions):

Code:
INSERT INTO `setting` (`varname`, `grouptitle`, `value`, `defaultvalue`, `optioncode`, `displayorder`, `advanced`, `volatile`) VALUES ('regpmtext', 'register', 'Hi $username and welcome to $bbtitle!\r\n\r\nWe appreciate you taking the time to register on our site and we hope you enjoy your stay.\r\n\r\nIf you have any questions, you can ask an administrator for assistance.\r\n\r\nWe hope to see you around.\r\n\r\nSincerely,\r\nThe $bbtitle staff', 'Hi $username and welcome to $bbtitle!\r\n\r\nWe appreciate you taking the time to register on our site and we hope you enjoy your stay.\r\n\r\nIf you have any questions, you can ask an administrator for assistance.\r\n\r\nWe hope to see you around.\r\n\r\nSincerely,\r\nThe $bbtitle staff', 'textarea', 150, 0, 0);
This hack was last updated: Sun December 5, 2004 at 23:00 PDT
This update has a new on/off switch.

Update includes: vB 3.0.2/3.0.3 instructions

To install follow the instructions in the attached file.

Installation Information
Files to Edit: 1
Queries to Run: 11

Upgrade Instructions:

Open ./register.php and remove the hack (to find the old hack see below). And re-add the updated hack found in the Installation Instructions file.

To upgrade to the December 5th release, you'll need to run these three queries:

Code:
INSERT INTO `setting` (`varname`, `grouptitle`, `value`, `defaultvalue`, `optioncode`, `displayorder`, `advanced`, `volatile`) VALUES ('regpmon', 'register', '1', '1', 'yesno', 135, 0, 0);
INSERT INTO phrase (phraseid, languageid, varname, `text`, phrasetypeid) VALUES (NULL, '0', 'setting_regpmon_title', 'Automatically Send Welcome PM to New Users?', '5000');
INSERT INTO phrase (phraseid, languageid, varname, `text`, phrasetypeid) VALUES (NULL, '0',  'setting_regpmon_desc', 'Do you want to automatically send a welcome PM to new users?', '5000');
Uninstall Instructions:

Run the queries in this post, and then remove the hack in register.php (see below).

Look for:
PHP Code:
        // ###################################################################
        // # WELCOME PM HACK BY rob_daemon
        // ###################################################################

 // [. . .] There is code here, but I didn't want to take  up more room

        // ###################################################################
        // # END WELCOME PM HACK
        // ################################################################### 
To configure it after installation, go to: Admin CP --> Options --> vBulletin Options --> User Registration Options

Attached is a screen grab of the PM by default and text instructions. If the file appears corrupt, please see this post.

Hi all,
there is a problem when the username has a ' in the name like "Tom's"
I get a MySQL Error while inserting the PM in the database because the PM receivername will be closed after Tom instead of Tom's.

any idea to fix that ?

Does anyone know if this mini-mod interfere with the v3 Articles hack?
Sorry, I haven't tested that.

Whatever that is, it's not standard in vB3.

I just updated the hack to make sure that all strings are protected against quote problems. Follow the upgrade instructions in the first post.

Looks like you have been, I had an old portal hack which stayed in my options, didn't do anything but it was there.

What do you mean? Do they get the new PM email and not the PM?

Hi Snowy

I'm getting the flashing Private Messages indicator in the NAVbar and within my UserCP is states I have 1 unread PM, but I don't have any.

Any ideas?

Cheers
This is still happening even withthe updates. I notice its when the user first registers and the popup comes if the press CANCEL it comes up with this. I mean if they dont read the PM right away we get this error.
