Welcome Topic

[StarterX]

Well Thanks to puw for Saying me how to check the MySQL Version and MySql Version is 5.1.58

[vbgamer45]

Hmm try creating this table manually in your database using phpmyadmin

Code Select Expand


CREATE TABLE  smf_welcome
(ID smallint(5) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
welcomesubject tinytext,
welcomebody text,
PRIMARY KEY (ID))


[comesee]

cant find     welcome' doesn't exist  when i tried to install the welcome mode.

[vbgamer45]

Database error? Or you can't find the setting?

[Mstcool]

I tried having a test account made and stuff, It didn't make the topic?

SMF 2.0.4

[vbgamer45]

What are your welcome settings that you have setup as?

[Mstcool]

Well I registered the member using the admin panel.

All my mods got deleted. So ill tell you after I add it back.

[vbgamer45]

Ah yeah I am not sure if it does create anything  when you do it using the admin panel.

Not possible since the user does not enter a display name on registration

They do if the site is using Display Name on Registration Mod (http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=1747) like our site.

I'm in the same boat. I'd really love it if it called the Display Name rather than the log in name, since I also use this mod.

Yes, it is possible. the following worked for me;
in Forums/Sources/Managemembers.php

Search for: // Welcome Topic Mod
Then 16 lines below this, change
'subject' => str_replace("{username}",$member['username'],$row2['welcomesubject']),
'body' => str_replace("{username}",$member['username'],$row2['welcomebody']),

to

'subject' => str_replace("{username}",$member['name'],$row2['welcomesubject']),
'body' => str_replace("{username}",$member['name'],$row2['welcomebody']),

[vbgamer45]

Yes that will work if you register a the member yourself in the members area.

[ivanr]

I do not register members myself in the members area, members register themselves as per normal.

All I do is just approve them in the admin section.

[vbgamer45]

The question is how do they enter their own custom  displayname on registration then?

[ivanr]

VBgamer, by using this SMFForum mod "Display Name on registration"

So ya, for the first time ever I ran in to something weird.

Had a new member sign up yesterday and they didn't get a welcome topic made for them.

Other than mod conflicts which I am not sure if that's what caused this one time fluke, what might also cause the post to not be made ?

Ps; I say one time fluke since I am hoping the next new member gets a post made for them.

Pss; For members "missed" is there a way to "force" the post to be made for them aside from just manually making one up / typing it out ?

Ty.

[vbgamer45]

Could be if you have a different mod that auto registers members might not support it.

Force read a topic on login

[MoreBloodWine]

Could be if you have a different mod that auto registers members might not support it.

None at all, I went ahead and just manually made the welcome post for said user. I'll come back here if it happens again, Thx VB
