i think this is a real simple feature... disabling registrations... i think it should be added to final v7 of the forums. if this has already been added and i dont know about it i apologise.

to take it a step further maybe there could be a registration queue for example where admins or moderators would have to APPROVE a new member registration before they become fully registered.

You can change the language file so that it says something like The Administratro Would Like To Revew Your Registration Before Activating Your Account and mod the script to send the confirmation email to the Admin instead of the user...

Try this, change line 841 on register.asp from

blnSentEmail = SendMail(strEmailBody, decodeString(strUsername), decodeString(strEmail), strMainForumName, decodeString(strForumEmailAddress), strSubject, strMailComponent, false)

to:

blnSentEmail = SendMail(strEmailBody, decodeString(strUsername), mailto:youremail@yourdomain.com - "youremail@yourdomain.com ", strMainForumName, decodeString(strForumEmailAddress), strSubject, strMailComponent, false)

Where it says mailto:youremail@yourdomain.com - youremail@yourdomain.com change that to your email address where you want the confirmation email to go, that should send the email to you instead of the user..... i guess you already know how to change the language files so that it tells the users that the admin wants to review their application instead of telling them that they will receive a confirmation email....

Also have in mind that if a lot of users sign up it might fill up your email inbox and some of the confirmation emails might get lost so you wanna have an email address just for that and check on it often...
