Mini Mods - Register Redirect. Now updated with the requested extra feature.

This is a small hack that will allow you to redirect your members to an url of your choise after they register at your forum. It works on both registration methods. For the Instant registration when no emaila ctivisation is needed and for Activating Acount method as well, in which case the user will be redirected to the url of your choosing immediately after he/she activates his/her account from the email address that they have been registerd at your forum.

The url can be an internal one, i.e. to the rules section of your forum or at the Introduction area, or it can be an external url.

You can enable and disable this hack at the Acp of your forum. You can also enter there the url to where you want to redirect your users to after they register at your forum and/or after they activate their account.

after member register and receive Activation message and when he click on the link to active his account his account not activeted just redirect to the custom page ...

we need fix this bug and make the redirect after see this message (thanx ur account activated now u can go to CP ......)

That is not a bug but it is supposed to work that way. And the account is activated first before the redirection. But if you want to redirect before they activate their email address, then disable the email activation redirection as it works the same with the first option, the instant resdirection. Which will redirect the users immediately no matter how the regitration method is set.

Will this work with multiple usergroups that are restricted to specific forums?

[GamerPerfection]

I have a question. I have a Mod on my site that will create an automatic Welcome thread on the forum upon registration. Is it possible at all to get this Register Redirect Mod to redirect a user to their own specific automatically created welcome thread?

I can get it to redirect to the forum section containing the welcome threads, but I wondered if it is possible to get the redirect to go to the thread even though the thread is not created until the registration is complete. Question is can it grab the newly created link to the thread?

Your my hero!!!!! This is just as good as the force post read

[BadgerDog]

For clarity, as I'm a slow learner ..

So, if this mod is set with a single mod option turned ON to redirect to a specific page, ONLY after they click on the validation email (or use the code in that email if the link doesn't work for them), the mod will not show the default vBulletin "confirmed" message, but rather will simply direct the user to the designated page?

Even though he never sees the default vBulletin message, he DOES get validated and becomes a Registered user ... correct?

Badger
