Should I get an email notifying me of this? Or do I just have to check the site everytime? Can I set it up so I get emailed everytime there is a new member?
You have to check. I don't know whether someone made a mod for that, but certainly there has been talk about it, so I would suggest that you have a look or search the mod forums.
* The optimist says the cup is half full. The pessimist says it's half empty. But the engineer knows the truth - the cup's design is incorrectly sized.
Modify the code around line 637 (after inserting the above) to look like this:
if strRestrictReg = "1" then Response.Write " <p align=""center""><font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strDefaultFontSize & """>The Administrator has restricted registration on this forum. You will receive an e-mail as soon as the Administrator approves your request.</font></p>" & vbNewLine
'################################### Administrator Notification Mod ######################## Response.Write " <p align=""center""><font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strDefaultFontSize & """>An Email has been forwarded to the Administrator</font></p>" & vbNewLine & _ " <p align=""center""><font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strDefaultFontSize & """>You will be contacted shortly" '#############################End of Administrator Notification Mod ########################
else Response.Write " <p align=""center""><font face=""" & strDefaultFontFace & """ size=""" & strDefaultFontSize & """>Please follow the instructions in the e-mail that has been sent to " & ChkString(Request.Form("Email"),"email") & " to complete your registration.</font></p>" & vbNewLine end if
That's the instructions.... is that all to the inc_mail.asp file? There is a 01 thing as well there but I assume I just need this?
The 02 beta you downloaded is meant to suggest changes to register.asp but they don't say that in their instructions. You don't make any changes to inc_mail.asp at all.
My mod add-on for the 01 beta accomplishes the same thing, just in a different way, but the instructions are a little more clear as to which file to edit. Either should work.

Sorry - pick either one of the following options, both do the same thing:
1) Use the 02 beta to make changes to register.asp (the instructions fail to mention the filename). 2) Use the 01 add-on whose instructions are complete.
