Welcome Thread with VB Options · **Released**: 04-07-2007

FROM AmyKhar
"This little mod will start a new thread in the forum of your choice when somebody registers.

The thread message is contained in a template, and easily customizeable on your part.

This version posts the thread when the user registers - but before he activates his email address."

You can set the ForumID, UserID and Username in VBoptions

on register it sends the Thread to moderations so you can customize it.

I'll be adding a second release soon with that functionality removed.

Thanks to AmyKhar for the original hack and Nick for his excellent debugging skills and intuitive coding.

I'd like to know where to go about looking to get this hack to work as well. I'm experimenting with it, but have had no luck so far.

ha, I don't even have a welcome_thread template.

oh well...
It looks like lil7rocket gave up on this one.
Another potentially good mod dropped...

Yep, looks like another one bites the dust.

I'm desperately looking for a mod to start a thread using, as the title, the user name and as the message body, one of the profile fields. If anyone knows of a mod, point me

Ditto.

I have tried installing this, and have, but the thing is I don't see it in control panel or anywhere else, I need to edit the welcome messege for them, and where it's being posted. I have even tried to edit the xml file and re upload and overwrite it. and it gives me an error.

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