Hi,
I'm using Snitz Ver.3.4.03. Under the Members Pending, if I will to disapprove any newly registered members, will they receive any email informing them that their registration is disapprove?
If there isn't any email send out to them, is there any mod that cater for this?
Thank you.
Chris Yew

Thanks for your reply Ruirib.
But wouldn't it better if the disapproved member also be able to receive an email from the forum? Is there anyway to have this done?
Thank you.

the only reasons that I can think of that you would want to remove them would be if they had been in there for a long time and never actually joined or if they had entered an incorrect e-mail address.
In either case I cant think of any situations that I would really want to have e-mail sent out, is there something else that I'm missing here?

When Restrict Registration is set to On, No email is sent to the Members on registration. An email is sent to the newly registered members(with activation key) when Admins approve the registration. If registration is rejected, no email is sent ? Chris wants to have that feature and it is a good idea. |

Thanks GauravBhabu!
Yes, my club's forum is opened to public but we will only approve those who register using their Realname instead of Nicks for the Username. As ours is a fish hobbyists club, we prefer to know each other by the Realname.
Thus whenever someone register using a Nick, we will delete (disapprove) his registration. And those who are disapprove never receive an email from us thus they will wonder what happen unless we have to send an email to them one by one.
If those who are deleted will also receive an email similar to those who are approved, then it will really be great.
Hope that someone can find time to carry out this mod. Thank you.

| Why don't you make the First Name and last name fields Required (requires some changes in code), This way no one will be able to register unless they provide that information. |

But that will not resolve the problem of them using their Nicks as the Username. Moreover, all the post are identified by the Username instead of the First and Last name.

Easy way to achieve what you want is to make the First Name and Last Name fields required and save the FirstName & LastName combination as username.
Hide the username field in registration form
Modify the register.asp, inc_profile.asp and pop_profile.asp to take the values from First Name and Last Name fields as username. |

That's really a good idea but I've to be careful in the modification of those script since I'm a layman in such. Will try it out though it's gonna take me a longer time, haha.
BTW, will that affect the Usernames of those who have already been approved and posting in the forum?

| Without changing the code too much, you can just put the star (required) next to the First Name and Last Name fields on the form. The form will go through even if they leave them blank, but they should not be surprised when they never get the confirmation letter. |

Chris, see the fourth and fifth posts at the following link on how to make a field mandatory:
http://forum.snitz.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=41533&SearchTerms=required,fields
As far as combining the two, look for the following code around line 200 or so in register.asp:
strEncodedPassword = sha256("" & trim(Request.Form("Password")))
This is where you want to combine the two, since shortly after this point the code checks the username for disallowed characters, words, existing matches, etc. After the above code, you could simply put the following line:
tmpUsrName = trim(Request.Form("FirstName")) & trim(Request.Form("LastName"))
However, you would also need to find all the instances of Request.Form("Name") and replace it with tmpUsrName instead.
