No support by the author.

This little mod will start a new thread in the forum of your choice when somebody registers.

The thread message is contained in a template, and easily customizeable on your part.

This version posts the thread when the user registers - but before he activates his email address.

Thanks to flypaper for providing a bugfix.

Installation Instructions: Import the product. Change the welcome_thread template to suit your needs. Change the setup variables in the welcome thread plugin to suit your needs.

I'm using this and it works great. I still have the problem though of it posting the thread as SOON as they register and I would like it to not post until they have confirmed the email confirmation. Can somebody help with this?

Also, I would like to add one thing to the thread title or subject. Where it now says Welcome: Newuser....I would like it to also add the location of the user..for example. Welcome: Newuser from location How would I do that?

Thanks in advance.

I'd like to use this mod, but would prefer to wait for the above functionality too please. I've clicked install so I can keep track of developments.

Can anyone give me pointers re the template installed by this addon. The template does not seem to be processed for markup so I am unsure of what to put into it. I am om 3.61. SO if anyone could post the content of their template showing how to do markup, it would be appreciated.

Cheers
Bruce

I don't see why it wouldn't work. I'm using my own version of this hack on 3.6.4...
