how can i get points added to a new registered users account?

example: a new member comes in and registers on my forum and instead of me giving him points i would like there to be 45 points in his profile ready for him to use.

my forum works on the points system so if you can help me out with this code i would appreciate it.

You can alter register.php I did.

Well it depends upon your point system. you really didn't give any information about that. Basically you just need to add a query
Find:

PHP Code:

// insert record into password history
        $DB_site->query("INSERT INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "passwordhistory (userid, password, passworddate) VALUES ($userid, '" . addslashes($hashedpassword) . "', NOW())"); 


Below add:

PHP Code:

$DB_site->query("INSERT INTO". TABLE+PREFIX ." [table name] (points) 
        VALUES (''50'); 


Or something similar. Your site will definitely be different though.

this is the code thats in the register.php im sure i can edit one of these lines to make it so that they get points upon registration

PHP Code:

// ## <ucs>
        if (intval($testreferrerid['userid']) != '0') {
            if ($vboptions['uttpoints_enablesystem'] == '1')
            { // It's enabled! Yay!
                if ($vboptions['uttpoints_pointsperreferral'] != '0')
                { // Needed value is not 0... good.
                    $givethempoints = $vboptions['uttpoints_pointsperreferral'];
                }
                if (isset($givethempoints))
                { // If they get money....
                    // Send the query and we're done.
                    $DB_site->query("UPDATE ".TABLE_PREFIX . $vboptions[uttpoints_pointtable]." SET ".$vboptions[uttpoints_pointsfield]."=".$vboptions[uttpoints_pointsfield]."+".$givethempoints." WHERE userid='".intval($testreferrerid['userid'])."'");
                }
            }
        }
        // ## </ucs> 


and i also did the edit in post # 4 and got this error
