No registered user verification

Hi,

I tried implementing the nuke no user email verification mod as All my registration emails go straight to junk email folders, leaving a lot of my users in the waiting section.

Can anyone suggest a way to either disable the user verification or get my emails out of the junk folder?

Sorry if this is the incorrect forum to post in Sad

Yes, I have been testing with various different email accounts and both in hotmail and gmail, my registration activation email goes into the junk email folder. When users are keen to visit my site half of them dont look in there and then forget about it.

There's a number of No Mail / Auto-activation hacks you can try

Very odd. I have not seen that problem, at least not to the scale that you seem to be referring to. Some mail services will add headers to the emails in the junk folder that may give you a clue as to why they are considering it junk.

It might be good to take a look at the expanded email headers and see if anything stands out.

I tried to use one, but when it came to using your account all i got was blank white pages.

Can anyone suggest a good YA hack?

try turning on error report,that will show some error as blank pages indicates that.

Turned on error reporting and received.

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare makepass() in /home/metalthron/domains/metalthrone.net/public_html/modules/Your_Account/index.php on line 48

Here is a snippet of the YA file

Code:

Is the full code around this function the following:

Code:

if (!function_exists('makepass')) {
function makePass() {
$cons = 'bcdfghjklmnpqrstvwxyz';
$vocs = 'aeiou';
for ($x=0; $x < 6; $x++) {
mt_srand ((double) microtime() * 1000000);
$con[$x] = substr($cons, mt_rand(0, strlen($cons)-1), 1);
$voc[$x] = substr($vocs, mt_rand(0, strlen($vocs)-1), 1);
}
mt_srand((double)microtime()*1000000);
$num1 = mt_rand(0, 9);
$num2 = mt_rand(0, 9);
$makepass = $con[0] . $voc[0] .$con[2] . $num1 . $num2 . $con[3] . $voc[3] . $con[4];
return($makepass);
}
}

I have a feeling you may not be using RavenNuke(tm) 2.10.00?

This is the code from a No email YA hack file, not the RN file.

Code:

function makePass() {
$cons = "bcdfghjklmnpqrstvwxyz";
$vocs = "aeiou";
for ($x=0; $x < 6; $x++) {
mt_srand ((double) microtime() * 1000000);
$con[$x] = substr($cons, mt_rand(0, strlen($cons)-1), 1);
$voc[$x] = substr($vocs, mt_rand(0, strlen($vocs)-1), 1);
}
$makepass = $con[0] . $voc[0] .$con[2] . $con[1] . $voc[1] . $con[3] . $voc[3] . $con[4];
return($makepass);
}

Hey i replaced the code with the RN YA bit pasted above and it all works great.

Problem is when trying to login after registering i simply get an Access Denied page.

The RN YA module code has moved around considerably and could look quite different since that original hack was written. You may be better off in the meantime just replacing what you have now with the index.php from the RN distro as it seems that the hack is not going well for you. You might be better served figuring out why your emails are getting into people's junk mail folders... I offerred an advice on that above.

I don't have much time these days, but I have put this on my "to do" list to check out that original hack and see if I can re-do that for RN.

BTW, it would still be helpful if you could post this:

It seems to have fixed itself with time montego. I am not getting as many posts go to junk mail.

Will however, when i find the time to reinstall properly, look at finding a no activation hack.

Cheers
