Make sure people read the registration agreement.

[Tristan Perry]

Great, now I can add the part about owning their sole & it will all be legal j/k

BTW I looked @ your forum & it didn't show the names, just the karma, its this because I wasn't logged in?

Your welcome  Also the thing about the karma: I didn't know that'd happen! I'll fix it when I can

Blast from the past..... I know it's an old thread but this is a great code. I know no one reads my user agreement so I've just installed this. I'm using v1.0.5 and I needed to change the following:

Code Select Expand

<a href="'.dirname().'index.php?action=register">

to

Code Select Expand

<a href="/index.php?action=register">

If your board isn't installed in the root directory you need to account for that too (ie. add the path after the /).

Sorry for kicking up this old topic but I like to implement this mod in my "SMF 1.1 RC 2" forum.
I adjusted the file "register.template.php". No problem there.

Now I want to adjust the file "register.php" and I'm looking for the line // No name?! How can you register with no name? but that line isn't there.

Where to put the code I have to add there?

[Tristan Perry]

No problem, try searching for the following instead:

// Collect all extra registration fields someone might have filled in.

Thanks,

Great it works 

Thank you very much Tau Online !!

I tested the mod and it works fine. Also the link to return to the registration-page works fine.
Just a little problem occured. My error logs shows this when the mod has done it's work.

2: Wrong parameter count for dirname()
Bestand: /home/....../public_html/forum/Sources/Register.php
Regel: 154

Problem solved 

This line in register.php created my problem :
Klik <a href="'.dirname().'index.php?action=register">hier</a> om opnieuw te registreren.',false);


I replaced it by this:
Klik <a href="http://www.pcnavigator.nl/forum/index.php?action=register">hier</a> om opnieuw te registreren.',false);

Problem solved 

This line in register.php created my problem :
Klik <a href="'.dirname().'index.php?action=register">hier</a> om opnieuw te registreren.',false);

.dirname should be $scripturl

Klik <a href="', $scripturl, '?action=register">hier</a> om opnieuw te registreren.',false);

[Han]

Okee 

[Tristan Perry]

Ah thanks - I've never been 100% sure what variable to use. I've updated the first post to use $scripturl instead.

// Collect all extra registration fields someone might have filled in.


I cannot find this line in Register.php inside the sources directory, am I missing something obvious?

Thanks,
Nick

Okay I've updated my first post so this will work with SMF 1.0.

[bugsmi0]

what a waste of tme reading registration agreement nothing but blah blah as if reading it will force you to follow the rules ha ha

[Cottelletje]

does this mod work with smf 1.1 r2

[Cottelletje]

people it now works but the link to go back to register doesn't work for me
i copied the register.php to the theme i use but that link doesn't work
'.$scripturl.'index.php?action=register this seems to be the link url is that right?

I really like the idea of 'forcing' new members to read the registration agreement, so I thought I'd give your tip/trick a go ... but now I've managed to screw up my registration process.

I'm fairly certain that I edited everything correctly, uploaded them to the proper places, etc., but when I did a test registration, I received the following error:

An Error Has Occurred!
You are not allowed to access this section 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.  (I'm using version 1.0.7.)  Thank you.

Are you sure you followed the correct part - i.e. you searched for "// Trim any whitespace from the username." and not "// Collect all extra registration fields someone might have filled in."?

Sorry although I'm off on holiday in a matter of hours and so will be little help at the moment

I can't really see where this would change things so that the registration cycle is broken.. I know this is old however I can remember testing it on 1.0(.4?) and it worked alright.

Actually, could you try changing the following:

In /Sources/Register.php
Find:

Code Select Expand

<br /><br />Please click <a href="', $scripturl, 'index.php?action=register">here</a> to re-register.',false);

Replace with:

Code Select Expand

<br /><br />Please click <a href="', $scripturl, '?action=register">here</a> to re-register.',false);

I think I messed the link back URL - it shouldn't have included the "index.php". If that doesn't work, I'd suggest just uninstalling this until I come back and can look into this further (I'll be back Saturday).

Thank you for the response!

Well, I did what you said and now we're a bit closer to the end result.  This time I get the following error:

An Error Has Occurred!

Congratulations! You just broken the Official World record for speed-reading!
Actually, we know you didn't read the forum rules, so please do so before continuing.
