Hey im using Nuke theme subblack and to register you have to enter ure email so that it can send an activation email link to you. is there anyway to skip this so that they can just register? if so what do i need to do? thanks

You will probably need to get some sort of user account mod /new user mod/auto activation mod (something along those lines) for this . Maybe try this one http://phpnuke-downloads.com/downloadview-details-16-524-New_User_Auto_Activation_Hack_v1.0.html .

You might have to ask your webhost for your SMTP settings . They will know what you are talking about .

Have you checked with your webhost to see if PHP Mail() function is disabled ?

Before anything else , copy the code below and save it as mailcheck.php

Code:

<?
if (isset($submit)) $resultMsg = 'Mailed - This just means that the PHP mail() function is working.<br />If you do not receive the email, then there is probably something wrong with your SMTP setup.';
else $resultMsg = '';
echo "<form action=\"".$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]."\" method=post>Input your email address to test";
echo "<br />";
echo "<input type=text name=addy size=50>";
echo "<br />";
echo "<br />";
echo "<input type=submit name=submit></form>";
if (isset($submit)&&!empty($addy)) {
unset($submit);
mail($addy,'Test message','Did you get this?') or die('ERROR');
echo($resultMsg);
unset($resultMsg);
die();
}
?>

Upload that to your web site then point your browser to it ie;

Quote:

www.yourdomain.com/mailcheck.php

Fill out the form and check your mail and of course , check your spam filter too .

Just wanted to rule out that the Mail() function was indeed, blocked and it appears it is . Can you clarify exactly what it is that you are trying to accomplish ? If you are still trying to get around the Activation email issue, you just simply need to install a mod for this .

Do a search for something like Auto account mod/User Mod or something of that nature . There are a lot out there . Start here http://phpnuke-downloads.com and maybe here http://www.nukescripts.net .
