OK many people keep asking for this including me so I decided to take shot. Basically what this does is lets a admin from the admin_member_config.asp decide which fields they would like required for their forum.
I just finished this today and am putting this up so people can let me know what needs to be fixed. Readme is finished and should be ready for people to try this out.
If you could test on all databases would be great I have only done this on access.

You can see a working example here:

Thanks and let me know if there are any problems so I can fix them along with the readme. smile

I haven't tried this yet, but I have a question:
Your Readme files says, "Upload the dbs file and run the mod setup in the admin options. Then upload the admin_config_members.asp to your forum directory."

But there is no admin_config_members.asp included in the download zip.
Did I miss something? <

admin_config_members.asp is a base Snitz file; obviously what Jeff meant was to edit that file as per the readme then upload it.

Actually I will look into that I already modified it as I had not seen a mod yet that has touched it so I made it possible to just upload over it. Let me take a look at that. smile<

If you're doing that be sure to include a very clear note in your readme that people should preferably apply the changes themselves, only overwriting their existing file if they are 100% positive they have not made any other changes to that file.

Well-said shaggy, this would have screwed up a lot of folks who added other mods to the base file.<

I'm sorry to ask the obvious...but what does this MOD do? I'm not sure of its purpose.<

Actually, there is a note in the Readme about uploading the files if you have a base Snitz installation.
But for those who don't*, you should also include the instructions for your changes to admin_config_members.asp (as you did with the other files) so that people don't have to sort thru to find the changes on their own.
