Topic: Registering an account from outside of SMF

That's fine, I got it. I'll clean it up a little and return a PM.

Labradoodle, did you manage to find out what was wrong with this?

[Labradoodle-360]

No, as I said on MSN, I don't really have the time. I'd have to spend some time debugging it locally.

[Luis-]

Ah, sorry. I must have read it wrong, I thought you meant you'd do it.

[Labradoodle-360]

I truly wish I could, I have *way* too much on my plate as it is. Sorry

I can't get it to work what so ever, here's my current code;

Code: [Select]

$regOptions = array(
'interface' => 'guest',
'username' => $name,
'email' => null,
'password' => sha1(strtolower($name) . $pass),
'password_check' =>  sha1(strtolower($name) . $pass),
'check_reserved_name' => true,
'check_password_strength' => true,
'check_email_ban' => true,
'send_welcome_email' => false,
'require' => 'nothing',
'extra_register_vars' => array(),
'theme_vars' => array(),
);

registerMember($regOptions, true);
Can you seen anything wrong with it?

Yes: email is null.
It must be a "valid" email (i.e. something that resembles an email).

[Luis-]

I changed that after, to see if it made a difference but it didn't. It still wont work.

[emanuele]

And what error do you get?

[Luis-]

There are no errors in my error log.

[emanuele]

Do you put something in $user_info['is_guest']?

[Luis-]

I don't have that in my code.

[emanuele]

One of the first things that registerMember does is to check if $user_info['is_guest'] is empty or not.
If it is empty it redirectexit().
Why? Because if you are not a guest (i.e. empty($user_info['is_guest'])) then you are not supposed to register again.

So you can try:

Code: [Select]

global $user_info;
$user_info['is_guest'] = 1;

registerMember($regOptions, true);And if you have any way to know if it is really a guest or not, then use this check to populate $user_info['is_guest'].
