Is it possible to add a list of members directly to the DB, with no or identical personal password? I could then turn subscriptions off for security reasons.
Thanks, Gabriele |

| not sure what you are asking, what have subscriptions got to do with security or lists of members, if you don't want subscriptions just turn them off. |

| What I need to do is add a long list of students (just individual names and one standard password for everybody) to avoid having them to subscribe, if possible. I have tried adding just the names in the DB leaving passwords blank, but it won't work... Thanks, Gabriele |

| right ok, you will need to write some code to do it as the password is encrypted, what you could do is register one user with the password you wish to use, you could then grabthe encrypted password for that user from the database and use it for all the other members. you will also need to set a few other colums to specific values in the database ( you could just use the record that you registered with as a template) also remember that usernames and email addresses are unique |
