Ok, I read the FAQ and if I understand it right, in the $closeRegister it should be set to '1' in order to make minibb generate a password and mail it to them...or to somehow verify the email address they're using is valid.

Well, I set it to 1 but it doesn't do that. Am I missing something here?

Have you uncommented this option?

oh my goodness, thank you. You know what, I spent a good while looking at all this too to make sure I wasn't missing something silly. hehehe, thank you. :)

I don't understand. What do you mean by uncommented this option?? Please help!

remove two slashes before it in setup_options.php file

Got it. No wonder it doesnt work for me too~ Thanks!!

Hi, I set $closeRegister=1; so people are emailed their password, this is excellent but I want to change the succesful registration message so that it tells them that they will get emailed, otherwise all it says is "thank you very much for registering",

where can I change this message ? I can't find it any of the files !

thanks

It's in the lang file.

This line: $l_thankYouReg = 'Thank you very much for registration!';

Change the text there.

Thanks loads Pille, I must have missed it at first, cheers!
