Miscellaneous Hacks - Force Intro On Register

This will force new members to fill out an intro when they register to your site. Very handy to make sure they are seen and with luck helps them feel welcome.

To install:
Create a new multiple-line text box profile field with the following settings.
Title: (your choice but should reflect it is intro)
Description: (once again your choice)
Max length: (has to be more then your minimum you will set later)
Field Required:Yes, at registration and profile updating
Private field: yes (can be no if you wish)

Rest of the fields are at your discretion. Make sure you make note of the new field id

Import product-introonregister in Manage Products

Now go to vBulletin Options->Into On Register Option and set the values.

Thats it, I have been using it for some time and thought others may like it.

This is working on my vb 4.1.2

Is it possible for the member to be subscribed to their intro thread so they know when a person replies?
