Quick Registration Hack v1.0 (any location!)

As required [ Here ] by Reverend

What does this hack do? Allows for quick registration of users!
When doing usergroup permissions and restricting access to alot of things you can use this little hack to call a quick register instead of Showing No Permission!
It allows for you to also disable the option in the Registration Settings
For instance if you restrict viewing in thread for guests they will get the normal empty forum with no threads and also they'll get a quick registration form!
Enjoy! Suggestions? Questions? Comments? [ g-force2k2 ]

*Notice: This hack doesn't include Coppa users. So if you rather have users join as Coppa if they're suppose to be then probably this isn't the hack for you

Edit: Zip updated thanks to Reverend for showing me an error in instructions

[MrLister]

yea that's what i was wondering as well

[g-force2k2]

Here's a screen shot of the quick registration enabled...

Oh and Reverend go to your settings in admin cp and just confirm and update them... the install my have stated that its on... but i dunno it seems like the option still needs to be confirmed ;\

[Reverend]

Nope still not working. :disappointed:

I've installed correctly,all the settings are enabled.
I've even uninstalled,then reinstalled etc,etc, but it still don't run.

All i get is the "There have been no posts in the last 30 days in this forum." screen.

[g-force2k2]

heh err... can i say that sucks ;\

A) make sure that its the forumdisplay.php and forumdisplay template

B) make sure that you updated the options in admin cp settings

C) make sure you're on the correct style...

Not sure what else i can do... i'd come and take a look... but you said you can't have that... if you check my ss it's definately a workin demo...

As for further support you can attach you forumdisplay.php ? Not really sure what else can be done ;\ anyone else having a problem?

[Reverend]

I appreciate your time g-force.

A) Yes

B) Yes

C) Yes

Here's my forumdisplay.php in notepad format.

[g-force2k2]

damn sorry Reverand my bad ;\ it was an error in my instructions... so used to doing it that i didn't recognize the error ;\ no coding error just instruction...

Add this coding:

PHP Code:

// +++++++ Quick Register on Restricting Access [ Start ] +++++++
if($QRenabled) {
  if($bbuserinfo[userid]==0) {
    eval("\$quickregister = \"".gettemplate('register_quick')."\";");
  }
}
// +++++++ Quick Register on Restricting Access[ End ] +++++++ 


Below the:

PHP Code:

require('./global.php'); 


instead of above my bad... i'll update the instructions... thanks for lasting it out

[Reverend]

Hehe,got there in the end.Working perfect.Many thanks.

[g-force2k2]

Reverend if you still want to get rid of that 'No Posts in the Last 30 days' you can take this code:

PHP Code:

// +++++++ Quick Register on Restricting Access [ Start ] +++++++
if($QRenabled) {
  if($bbuserinfo[userid]==0) {
    eval("\$quickregister = \"".gettemplate('register_quick')."\";");
  }
}
// +++++++ Quick Register on Restricting Access[ End ] +++++++ 


And replace it with:

PHP Code:

// +++++++ Quick Register on Restricting Access [ Start ] +++++++
if($QRenabled) {
  if($bbuserinfo[userid]==0) {
    eval("\$forumdisplay[threadslist] = \"".gettemplate('register_quick')."\";");
  }
}
// +++++++ Quick Register on Restricting Access[ End ] +++++++ 


I just didn't include that if you wanted to use it on other locations instead of the show_nopermission

g-force2k2

[Reverend]

mmmm....i replaced the code and it has gone back to the "no posts in the last ## days" screen.

[g-force2k2]

then put the coding at the end of the forumdisplay.php

above:

PHP Code:

eval("dooutput(\""gettemplate("forumdisplay")."\");"); 


see if that works better?

[Reverend]

g-force2k2

[Reverend]

Yep,i see what you changed.The top bar fontcolor.
Looks a lot better.

[Reverend]

g-force,sorry to be a pain.
Using this hack,is there anyway i can let guests still view certain forums/threads.

[g-force2k2]

yeah i'll see what i can do for you Reverend i can probably do an forum exclusion pretty easily just do you want a number of different forums? one in general? just wondering what you're looking for
