These mods are for the HuwR Modified release of 3.1sr4 only. (* All of these mods are already posted for the standard release)
Included:
- Email List & Message Manager
- Random Password emailed to new registrant
- Username Filter
These files worked well on a default install of HuwR's modified version. I think all files are fairly well commented. As always, back up your old files before using and let me know of any bugs, comments or suggestions.
File: http://www.cantonweb.com/HuwR-ized_ALL.zip

Note: Because of changes to muliple files, the mods in this zip are bundled and not seperable

Problem found / Fixed:
Existing users will have errors when editing their profiles if they leave the "Receive Forum Updates" in the default position and submit.
THE FIX: In inc_profile.asp look for <!################### - kerrycode for Email List------> <%if Request.QueryString("mode") = "goEdit" or Request.Querystring("mode") = "goModify" then RECMAIL = RS("M_RECMAIL") if RECMAIL = "1" then YesNo = "No" else YesNo = "Yes" end if %>
And replace it with:
<!################### - kerrycode for Email List------> <%if Request.QueryString("mode") = "goEdit" or Request.Querystring("mode") = "goModify" then RECMAIL = RS("M_RECMAIL") if RECMAIL = "1" then YesNo = "No" else RECMAIL = "0" YesNo = "Yes" end if %>
This is updated in the zip.

Sounds good 
The main reason I made this is that I'm working with both the standard & modified versions myself and noticed alot of others doing the same. -Couldn't quite mod one and not the other. ..But if they work well enough to be added, that'd be great 
...and if not, post what needs fixed!

2 things...
(1) I get this error when I try to edit any profile and I have the updated .zip already and it still causes an error:
Microsoft JET Database Engine error '80040e10'
No value given for one or more required parameters.
/guitard/snitz_forum/pop_profile.asp, line 787
(2)Is there a way to turn off the random emailed password? I just wanted this mod for the email list so I can inform people of updates, but now I can't remove the random password..
Here is what my pop_profile.asp looks like: http://user.webrc.ca/guitard/pop_profile.txt

Yes both setup files were installed. I seemed to fix the profile editor section by replacing it with an old one copy of it. But now I would just like to remove the random password emailer and have each user put in their own password. Sorry if I have caused any trouble.

Hmm but wouldn't building mods for different forum installations advocate the use of different forums?? worst case scenario would be for the mod writer to write mods for each separate installations. Just my 2 cents about this.

No trouble at all 
My suggestion at his point:
1) Replace all of the files from the zip with your original copies (you kept back-ups, right?).
2) Checked your email functions using "Send to a Friend" or "Forgotten Password" features - make sure that part is working from the start.
3) Download the Email List Manager above and use those files (you won't need to re-run setup unless you replace the database).
Let me know how this works out.

Yeah, I know what you mean - I'm not going to try to keep up with every version that rolls out, but I was already mod'ing one of HuwR's releases and figured I'd release the files for whoever wanted them. That, and it's good experience / practice (I can use both).

Okay, well then the reason pw's aren't going out is likley the same no other mail functions work.
Your mail settings are in Admin Panel > Email Server Configuration. You may have to check with your ISP on settings.
