And replace with

PHP Code:

if (in_array(THIS_SCRIPT, array('register','index')))

Thanks, however i am using vbadvanced for index, so when i changed this as you said, then it was still visible on the index but not anymore on the forum index...

But i found it :-) the name for my vbadvanced index was adv_index so this worked !

Also, if you want to change this without reinstalling this mod (you lose the translation and settings...), its better to change in Plugin Manager

[Scanu]

Yes as you said if you use vbadvanced index the script is adv_index

No sleep makes for poor thinking. LOL

This corrects my typing error and lack of sleep.

Only problem I see is that this shows only on forum pages, not in CMS and other pages. Is there a way to make it visible on all pages?

Also, please include in CSS option to manually decide how wide is notice to users waiting email confirmation. Now I need to change it manually (I use pretty long text).

You could add this link: profile.php?do=editpassword It leads to options for changing email address, as some users give wrong email address and with this link they could change it and try confirm another one.

Anyway, pretty useful, especially if it will work on all pages.
