Greetings,
I'm a bit stuck as to how to limit registration from only one domain, ie. www.alloweddomain.org. All other domains (yahoo.com, rr.com, etc.) wouldn't be able to register. Is there an easy way to do this? Much obliged. lsa |

You need to have email notification enabled for this and set the domain as one to not allow for email addresses. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

1. Add that domain to the blocked list... 2. Open register.asp 3. Change line 135 from: blnEmailBlocked = False to: blnEmailBlocked = True 4. Change line 562 from: If InStr(1, strEmail, strCheckEmailAddress, 1) Then blnEmailBlocked = True to: If InStr(1, strEmail, strCheckEmailAddress, 1) Then blnEmailBlocked = False 5. Save it. I believe that should do it but i've never tried it so just give it a shot... ------------- FeRnAN http://www.danasoft.com/">

Oops, just one more thing keeps popping up. Now that I've changed the registration to only allow one domain to register, everytime I test the registration form an error message comes up saying:
even though it's the allowable domain. When I close the error message I can still continue registering but I'm afraid it will confuse forum users if they see that message. I'm not sure why this is happening. Is there another line I need to change? Sorry to be a bugger. lsa |

you can do that or change line 1163 from If blnUsernameOK = False OR blnEmailOK = False OR blnEmailBlocked = True Then %> to If blnUsernameOK = False OR blnEmailOK = False OR blnEmailBlocked = False Then %> and line 1179 from If blnEmailBlocked = True Then to If blnEmailBlocked = False Then also search the whole file for blnEmailBlocked and whenever is followed by = False change it to = True and vice-versa... <edit> also be careful when you do that search n replace, make sure you don't change back the lines you've already changed cuz that would mess it up and you might have to reupload a fresh copy of the file and start over.... ------------- FeRnAN http://www.danasoft.com/">
