(If you don't have the unregistered usergroup set to Can View Forum = YES then you will have to follow the normal steps then apply this fix: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=136)

1) Import the Product (make sure you have an original register template, or use the [manual edits])
2) Upload the images and javascript
3) Also Add these to your Additional CSS Definitions for your style:

.inputgood {
    width: 211px;
    border: 1px solid Green;
}
.inputbad {
    width: 211px;
    border: 1px solid Red;
}

What to do?

You need to upload the pwStrengthBar.gif image to your images/misc folder on the server


Thank you for the update works great!

Will you ever add the same thing for Referrers so it would check the names?

Thanks again

I remove the whole hack, do the cleaning, reverted REGISTER TEMPLATE, and start all over again... the Password Meter doesn't work :'(

I never used them in the end, but the images I made are there for anyone who wants them.

Wonderful modifcation! Thank you very much for releasing it. One big issue though...

The "X is not the same as the one on the left" is only checked when blurring the right hand input. So if you go back and change the first to match the left correctly, it still says that they don't match until you blur/unblur the input on the right again.

It would also be nice for the checks not to run if the field is empty.

I get the same issue with the password meter, it's a little bar a couple of px wide that doesn't change. But it's a custom forum so I don't want to blame anyone in case it's me.

Edit: I see when you pick a username that's already in use it actually names the person the taken email address belongs to. I'm not so happy with that from a privacy perspective, what would be the best way of removing the extra name please?

Same here.. the meter doesn't work and I'm sure the image path is correct.

w00t! never thought of it

Mine still doesn't work on the password-bar, and I've reinstalled everything hoping that it was my error... but it doesn't move at all
