I'm on vbulletin 3.7.2 and I tried installing this mod and it only worked halfway. It added the forum rules to the registration page, but it didn't remove the forum rules page before it.

Has anyone else had this problem with 3.7.2? Another thing that could be causing this problem is the fact that I'm using a vbDrupal installation as my backbone. However, I do have my registration method set to vbulletin so I dont think that would be the cause of the problem.

Thanks for any help in advance!

haha love the plugin was playing around with the register php and that plugin
messed it up so now it skips age verification + rules alltogether and jumps straigth
to normal registrations.

Edit with this plugin edit.. it works on 3.8.1 as intended.

changeing signup to checkdate
which still enableds DOB on 3.8.1
else its without DOB.

PHP Code:

// if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'signup')
if ($_REQUEST['do'] == 'checkdate')
{
$_REQUEST['do'] = 'register';
$_POST['agree'] = '1';
} 


Mod installed.. tx. :up: :up:

I had to hack the plugin to this to get it to work on 3.8.2.

PHP Code:

if ($_REQUEST['do'] = 'signup')
{
$_REQUEST['do'] = 'register';
$_POST['agree'] = '1';
}
