I have meanwhile ditched this mod in favour of an advanced profile field which is set to be compulsively filled out during registration. While I had no problem with the mod switching was a no-brainer once I realised I could achieve the same through a native forum function.

Thanks for the heads up. I'll give this a go.

Live 627..Can you please make this version 2.0 ...I like the Mod..But want to install it in.. thanks

[live627]

Install it already

[Martingonnella]

Ooo..it does work after all..Thanks

[live627]

That's the thing with this mod: it isn't tied to versions very much... only a loose range: 2.0 - 2.99.99, which allows it to install even on the legacy RC3 release. Without emulation. Same with 2.0.45

Not sure of compulsory profile field will show up in the approval screen? Anyhow, installed and working great.

Thanks for a really useful mod.

It won't show up there.

Thought so. This mod have helped a LOT, its now easy to sort out the spammers. If they can't provide a coherent reason for joining, they are not approved.

Precisely my use  for it

I have join reason mod  and email template editor mod both installed and want the join reason to be sent in the Admin Notify Approval email
how do I get that variable in there or can't it be done using email template editor or do I need to alter one of the smf core files to get the join reason in the Admin Notify Approval email

You're probably going to want to ask live (author of Join Reason Mod) how best to integrate his modification into Email Template Editor.

[live627]

Need a small code edit. I'lll post it soon.

[live627]

If you go look in ./Sources/Subs-Members.php, you'll find four occurrences of

Code Select Expand

'REALNAME' => $regOptions['register_vars']['real_name'],

After the LAST THREE, add

Code Select Expand

'JOINREASON' => $regOptions['register_vars']['join_reason'],

That should add a new variable, JOINREASON, for you to use with the email editor.

[dvk01]

I can't find a way to get it into the editor
is there some other way to alter the sent email apart from using email template editor to send the join reason in the adminnotify  approval email

to make it clear
I have added the edits from live627 above to Sources/Subs-Members.php and I have created a new global variable in email editor {JOINREASON} but all I get in the email is {JOINREASON}not teh data

where am I going wrong

[Game.ruler]

Please anyone help me. If i want this join reason field to be optional, then what should i edit?
Thank you.

Just tries to install this mod in 2.0.6 (via Package Manager) with the Black Knight Theme and Prevent Topic View Increase by Author Mod and I get the follow:

Fatal error: require() [function.require]: Failed opening required '/homepages/30/d90568795/htdocs/forum/Packages/temp/install20.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php5') in /homepages/30/d90568795/htdocs/forum/Sources/Packages.php on line 951

Can you tell me why and how to fix?

Let me know if you need addidtional info.

Thanks

I tried to install this in a 2.0.6 site, when hit install, get white page. Mod does not install, and nothing wrong with my site or host, so the normal white page of death does not apply in this case.

EDIT:

Happens on any 2.0.6 site, on different servers.

Install 1.3.

Kindly share the 1.3 version with us. The version available right now is 1.4 and I am unable to find 1.3
