What does 'Marking As Installed' do ?

* It helps you to stay on top of updates - members who have installed modifications will be notified whenever new updates are available.

* For security issues - vbulletin.org will contact all members who have installed a modification whenever a security issue is brought to their attention.

* Marking a modification as installed also helps me know how many people are using my work, giving me extra incentive to provide more features and new modifications.

I appreciate the support!

Well it was for Alan_SP but yeah it won't hurt to have you test it too. You have it set to create the thread after email validation?

LOL! hah...

But yes, I have it set like that as well ...

But just a note, the googlebot IP is always the one that is triggering these new no username threads still ...

So hopefully this xml file will fix it ....

Correct, No means they should be triggering the activation email link in order to create the thread.

Ok, I installed and tested attached version.

I tested it with everything that before created multiple "empty" threads, now there was none. Of course, I tested if successful activation would produce valid thread, it did.

I think we can call this solved. :up:

Of course, I'll monitor what's happing now in "real life", as I maybe overlooked something, but I think we (well, you ) got it.

If you want to wait, ok, but I think this solved these empty threads.

If only you could easily achieve mentioning to work... But for now, it should be done manually...
