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.

Amy

HI, I just installed the original plug-in as product and worked fine.

I was able to edit both the plau-in and the template.

Now I would like to improve litlle things like:

1) how to make it choose a Smile for the post in the title?

2) I am using pure text in template but how to use the codes for bold and colored fonts?

If I enter like this:

Welcome $username to English Coffee ?!!!! Thanks for joining us!

I get error when saving:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_ENCAPSED_AND_WHITESPACE, expecting T_STRING or T_VARIABLE or T_NUM_STRING in /home/english/public_html/includes/adminfunctions_template.php(3596) : eval()'d code on line 1

Any solution for this?

sorry, deinstalled.
No clue what to configure and/or set to make this mod working... Maybe you should post a step by step installation WHAT AND WHERE EXACTELY to change or configure as I (and for sure not me alone) do not understand how this shall work and where to set any settings for this mod.
Examples:
-> where to set in which forum the thread will be started?
-> where to set, WHO is going to start the thread (username settings...)
and so on and so on....
no, sorry, deinstalled after 3 minutes...
