I did not get a "you have registered" message.
test users pop up in the "users awaiting e-mail confirmation".
I have not received e-mail for confirmation.

tried 2 different test users with different e-mails.

This mod doesn't alter the database in anyway- it is likely a conflict with another mod.

I would need to see the text of the actual database error- it should be emailed to the tech address set in config.php or in your MySQL error log.

Awesome mod!

First, thank you for posting this and trying to help. I installed this along with other suggestions from OZZY.

Renaming "register.php" is now fairly useless against the latest spam software. It was a good idea and probably once worked quite well,, but spam software (xrumer, etc) must now just be looking at the register link to figure out the URL, so the filename really doesn't matter anymore. I renamed register to completely random numbers/letters, two separate times, and all settings are correct. Within 30 minutes, the spambots are filling out forms on the new register filename. I know they are getting past the rename plugin trick because I'm getting PMs with them being blocked by a separate hostname spam plugin (which does help eliminate some spam).

I wonder if implementing a javascript generated version of the link to register.php (or whatever we rename it to) would block them again for a while, until they figure a way around that as well. That is what some websites use to reduce email harvesters.

how do I keep stumbling on YOUR mods.

Anyway, couple inquiries for you.

What happens if I have already made some manual template edits changing register.php to something else? For example the register link in the top right corner, I changed where that links to, also changed the URL in the 'no permission' phrases, etc things of that nature.

What I did was took the registration form from your OTHER mod, really fast registration, and put it into a new custom vbulletin page. So naturally I went through a few of the templates/phrases and added my own URL.

My concern is whether or not installing this mod will effect all of the adjustments. I figure I might as well rename register.php to prevent the last bit of spammish traffic that might be going directly to that URL to register, rather than clicking the register button itself, of coarse.

Any template instances/links to register.php should be automatically changed by this mod to the new value. If you created a custom php file then you may need to manually edit the php file with the new register.php name however really fast registration was coded to work with this mod out of the box.

This mod works great - except when a potential registrant is browsing using ForumRunner. If he or she hits the "Register" button through ForumRunner, then a 404 Page Not Found error pops up (because register.php no longer exists).

How can this be fixed so mobile users can successfully register after installation of this mod?

Interesting... thanks for letting me know. I'll work on some kind of ForumRunner fix. My initial thought is a copy of register.php but modified so it only works for users in ForumRunner.

When i click through the "Link to Edit Email Body Phrases", it takes me to the Email Body Text Page. When i click on edit, it takes me through to a page for the "activeaccount" but i'm unable to edit anything.

How do i edit the activateaccount and activateaccount_change parts?

Thank you BirdOPrey5 for this modification!

For PhotoPost-Users a code adjustment is necessary:

Line 380 of vb3.php located in the forums subdirectory of their product:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.
