(If you don't have the unregistered usergroup set to Can View Forum = YES then you will have to follow the normal steps then apply this fix: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....&postcount=136)

1) Import the Product (make sure you have an original register template, or use the [manual edits])
2) Upload the images and javascript
3) Also Add these to your Additional CSS Definitions for your style:

.inputgood {
    width: 211px;
    border: 1px solid Green;
}
.inputbad {
    width: 211px;
    border: 1px solid Red;

I've had this mod installed for some time now and love it. I've just noticed that it doesn't query the banned email addresses though.

For example, say I've banned '@yahoo.com'. I'm able to type in an email address containing '@yahoo.com' and it says the email is available. When I hit the Complete Registration button though, it says the email address has been banned.

Is there a way to get this mod to query the banned email addresses?

Thanks a lot.

Absolutely love this mod...

And for those interested...if you have the following mod installed...it will conflict with this mod:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=160060

So I removed that mod...wasn't serving any purpose, anyway...

Nice job on this hack...I'm absolutely loving it...

Installed on 3.6.8 PL2 and apparently working as expected...

Would it be possible to have some sort of instant e-mail address verification included into this? They have a function like this available for phpbb:

Live Email Validate (LEV)

To bring up an old question asked by someone else eons ago, how do you feel about No Spam! hack support now that you've captcha support anyway ? I know they don't function exactly the same, but could it be doable somehow now ?

I would love the Email check thing and the submit button NOT to be active till all fields have been filled in. I will look at the code and see if I can help you out. I also like the LIVE EMAIL checker that thing rocks when I used to use phpbb. I will see if that is possible as well.

I'm having a strange problem. It seems that this script doesn't allow AOL addresses past the registration page. When a potential member attempts to sign up using an AOL email address it returns an error saying that the email address is invalid. I've confirmed the validity of the email addresses attempting to register, so it must be the plugin. Any ideas on what I could change in the xml file to counter this error?

Coder Shack it is pitty that we can not use this wonderfull add-on on our foreign language boards.

I believe that vb has some sort of interperter between foront-end and database that translate characters.
When I check my db there are different characters than on the front-end (they are written in UTF-8 code I believe in the db).

Can you use this interperter before you run the text through your javascript? or after that for checking?
