Random Password Instead of Activation Code

As per request, this is verstion 2.0 of the Random Password hack.

I am starting a new thread for this, because users of vB 2.0.3 and down should use version 1.0 of this hack, whereas users if v.2.2.0 and up should use this version.

[hr]

Purpose: When a new user regsiters, he is e-mailed a password generated randomly. He will not be able to log in until he receives this e-mail and uses that password. (the same happens if an existing user changes his e-mail address).

After installing this hack, you will have three options essentially:

1) Don't verify the e-mail is valid.
In this case the user selects his own password and nothing is sent to him.

2) Verify the e-mail is valid by sending an activation code
This is how vBulletin works now: a user selects his own password during registration, and the BB Mailer sends him an activation code / link that he needs to use before he's able to post

3) Verify the e-mail is valid by sending a random password
In this case the user DOES NOT select a password but instead he receives a randomly generated password by e-mail. He will not be able to log in / post until he receives and uses this password.

Installation: download the attached installer and run it in your admin directory. All changes that need to be made manually to scripts and/or templates are listed there.

[high]Important: If you previously installed this hack, select the "upgrade" option and not the "new install"[/high]

ok, send me to goren@atlasf1.com your register.php and member.php files pls

[ForYou]

hello bira ..

i was send for you the files .....

waiting you help ...

regards

[bira]

in your register.php line 489, this:

'".addslashes($password)."'

should be this:

'".addslashes([high]md5([/high]$password)[high])[/high]."'

This by the way was NOT changed in this hack. You installed a pre-2.2.0 hack (you have several of them there) and overwrote the correct line, which dropped your md5() password ecryption.

Thank you alot bira .... you are the best

evry thing is OK now

happy new year
