Registration: Administrators only

[the_creator]

i get that to make control in the registrations,becouse seems that the mod link not work,and messing a little i decid to control too when my users lost is passwords,and disable the Forgot password system

Open Reminder.php
Look for :

Code Select Expand

$row = mysql_fetch_array($request);
$name = trim($row['realName']);
$email = trim($row['emailAddress']);
if ($email == '')
   mailprog_error();
$status = trim($row['memberGroup']);
And Deleted :

Code Select Expand

$email = trim($row['emailAddress']);
if ($email == '')

That ill end in all ways to a Webmail error in the page like this:

Code Select Expand

                 Mailprogram error.
Send email to Webmaster to ask for password.


well i dunno the others but for me seems more secure

ok but when i do that i have this error Parse error: parse error, unexpected ':' in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\yabbse\Sources\Register.php on line 30

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: register() in C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\yabbse\index.php on line 214


this is what i have done $registerplver="YaBB SE 1.4.0";
Code:is_admin();

Any news about this since july ? Is there such a mod which works under se 1.4.0 ? I need a mod that allow only admin to register, so new users have to ask the admin to be a member (via email etc).

Thanks

Copy that into notepad, save it as a .mod file and then run it with boardmod (I cant delete it this time )

Note: I did not test this and cannot guarantee it will not screw up your board  As always: BACKUP YOUR FILES FIRST.

[Edit: Removed the register button from the menu in ssi.php too]

[kiboost]

ok, as I don't know how to execute it as mod, I've done it manually as it was writed. and I must say, hey !! I works lovely !!!!

Thanks Tom !!

For future reference, to use a mod file you need to use boardmod SE, although i dont have a download link you can find it by searching the forums

[dlokko]

I was able to get this done and working no problem ( slight miracle I may add on my part). Great job!!

I do havea question though...my goal is to make my board private....however I would like to be able to have the guest request a member ship via e-mail. This person would send the e-mail with a requested username with real name...ect. And then I could create the account for them. The way things are now....when they get to the login page...and hit the "click here to register button" it sends them to an error page that doesn't give them the opprotunity to request registration.....

I would really appreciate any help with this....thanks

(forgive any typos...i've been at this for 12 hours and my eyes are glassed over)

oh yeah, last time i edited out every mention of "Register" I could make a page that sends an IM to the admin tht guests can use. IE they can only IM and admin.

I'm out of town for a few days and then i have start school so dont expect anything for a while

[kiboost]

Yeah would be really great !!!

Actually I use phpmyadmin to create new users, better than rename register.php, create, re-rename,e tc..
