Hello
Can anyone tell me how can i get email address field on register form, from url?
Just like referral link i.e. http://www.myforum.com/register.php?referrerid=10
I will be generating links as http://www.myforum.com/register.php?referrerid=10&email=username@email.com
What i wanna do is, just like referralid is taken from url and set in referral field of register form, i wanna take email from url and set it on the filed in register form.
Now i have already done customization till register link with referral id and email generation.
All i wanna know is, how do i catch email id from url...
I mean which files i'm suppose to edit?
And yeah there is "Agree to Forum Rules" thing before registration form actually appears (And i know vbulletin uses cookies to get referral id from actual link or something like that). so please tell me how do i add email to this system?

Detailed instructions are strongly appreciated and helper will get full credits.

You would have to use a $_GET

Code:

$refferalemail = $vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('g', 'email', TYPE_STR);

Make a plugin in the register hooks and put the above code in it. Make sure to modify it to your needs.

And in the registration templates (pretty sure its register_rules) find the email input fields and inside the email input fields put value="$refferalemail"

If you want the email link to carry over from the Accecpt Forum Rules page to the registration rules page you will have to modify the "Form Action" in the template register. find (<form action=") and at the end of the link put (&email=$refferalemail)

Nop its not working...
I tried adding above code for following template hooks :
register_start
register_signup
register_form_start
register_requestemail

Also my register template looks like this now :

Code:

$stylevar[htmldoctype]

	{

		return false;
	}
	else if (password1.value != password2.value)
	{
		alert('$vbphrase[entered_passwords_do_not_match]');
		return false;
	}
	else

But its not taking email field from url.
This is the url i tried :

Code:

http://www.mywebsite.org/forums/register.php?referrerid=10&email=username@gmail.com

Brandon_R · #5 09-05-2009, 11:57 AM

Maybe the email variable is conflicting with another variable that vBulletin uses. Try adding this plugin in the register_start hook.

Code:

$refferalemail = $vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('g', 'refferalemail', TYPE_STR);

And replace the email input fields with

HTML Code:

				<tr>
					<td>
						$vbphrase[email_address]:<br />
						<input type="text" class="bginput" name="email" size="25" maxlength="50" value="$refferalemail" dir="ltr" />
					</td>
					<td>
						$vbphrase[confirm_email_address]:<br />
						<input type="text" class="bginput" name="emailconfirm" size="25" maxlength="50" value="$refferalemail" dir="ltr" />
					</td>
				</tr>

And the form action with

HTML Code:

action="register.php?do=register&amp;refferalemail=$refferalemail"

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
