Error confirming email in Registration Hack

JerseyNB · **Error confirming email in Registration Hack -** 01-24-2003, 08:40 AM

Your account is currently inactive. You cannot use it until you visit the
following link: link to activate member

But when u click the link you get a page saying:
Sorry, such file doesn't exist...

The member is then able to login to nuke but not the forum.

Hello JerseyNB, can you please explain your problem a little more? I'm not sure where you're at there.
You don't have to reply to that, I understand it. Still havn't figured it out though.

Did you do a good search through all the files in the instructions, the ones you need to change the links in?

Jersey. That is because you have User Activate enabled in the Forum Admin cofiguration. You can't use the Activate account function in the Forum with our reg hack.

I have fixed this problem though with the check in the user_active field and hopefully I will release the fix we can apply in order to use the User accoutn Activation feature.

gimme a little while. I also want to get the smartDark theme released.

OH...for now, to fix that link, which will need to be fixed when I release this Activation fix later is here

look in modules/Forums/includes/usercp_register.php

Code:

					'U_ACTIVATE' => $server_url . '?mode=activate&' . POST_USERS_URL . '=' . $user_id . '&act_key=' .

change it to

Code:

					'U_ACTIVATE' => $server_url . '&mode=activate&' . POST_USERS_URL . '=' . $user_id . '&act_key=' .

and find

Code:

					'U_ACTIVATE' => $server_url . '?mode=activate&' . POST_USERS_URL . '=' . $user_id . '&act_key=' .

It's just the ? in front of mode needs to be & for the link to be right.
change it to

Code:

					'U_ACTIVATE' => $server_url . '&mode=activate&' . POST_USERS_URL . '=' . $user_id . '&act_key=' .

Oh heck..here it is...I'll try to get this setup as a download for others.

In modules/Your_Account/index.php

find

Code:

function login($uname, $pass) {
    global $setinfo, $user_prefix, $dbi, $module_name;
    $result = sql_query("select pass, uid, storynum, umode, uorder, thold, noscore, ublockon, theme, commentmax from ".$user_prefix."_users where uname='$uname'", $dbi);
    $setinfo = sql_fetch_array($result, $dbi);
    if ((sql_num_rows($result, $dbi)==1) AND ($setinfo[uid] != 1) AND ($setinfo[pass] != "")) {
	$dbpass=$setinfo[pass];
	$non_crypt_pass = $pass;
  	$old_crypt_pass = crypt($pass,substr($dbpass,0,2));
	$new_pass = md5($pass);
	if (($dbpass == $non_crypt_pass) OR ($dbpass == $old_crypt_pass)) {
	    sql_query("update ".$user_prefix."_users set pass='$new_pass' WHERE uname='$uname'", $dbi);
	    $result = sql_query("select pass from ".$user_prefix."_users where uname='$uname'", $dbi);
	    list($dbpass) = sql_fetch_row($result, $dbi);
	}
	if ($dbpass != $new_pass) {
            Header("Location: modules.php?name=$module_name&stop=1");
    	    return;
	}
	docookie($setinfo[uid], $uname, $new_pass, $setinfo[storynum], $setinfo[umode], $setinfo[uorder], $setinfo[thold], $setinfo[noscore], $setinfo[ublockon], $setinfo[theme], $setinfo[commentmax]);
	Header("Location: modules.php?name=$module_name&op=userinfo&bypass=1&uname=$uname");
    } else {
	Header("Location: modules.php?name=$module_name&stop=1");
    }
}

replace ALL with

Code:

function login($uname, $pass, $redirect, $mode, $f, $t) {
    global $setinfo, $user_prefix, $dbi, $module_name, $pm_login;
    $result = sql_query("select pass, uid, storynum, umode, uorder, thold, noscore, ublockon, theme, commentmax, user_active from ".$user_prefix."_users where uname='$uname'", $dbi);
    $setinfo = sql_fetch_array($result, $dbi);
    $forward = ereg_replace("redirect=", "", "$redirect");
    if (ereg("privmsg", $forward)) {
        $pm_login = "active";
    }
    if ((sql_num_rows($result, $dbi)==1) AND ($setinfo[uid] != 1) AND ($setinfo[pass] != "") AND ($setinfo[user_active] == 1 )) {
	$dbpass=$setinfo[pass];
	$non_crypt_pass = $pass;
  	$old_crypt_pass = crypt($pass,substr($dbpass,0,2));
	$new_pass = md5($pass);
	if (($dbpass == $non_crypt_pass) OR ($dbpass == $old_crypt_pass)) {
	    sql_query("update ".$user_prefix."_users set pass='$new_pass' WHERE uname='$uname'", $dbi);
	    $result = sql_query("select pass from ".$user_prefix."_users where uname='$uname'", $dbi);
	    list($dbpass) = sql_fetch_row($result, $dbi);
	}
	if ($dbpass != $new_pass) {
            Header("Location: modules.php?name=$module_name&stop=1");
    	    return;
	}
	docookie($setinfo[uid], $uname, $new_pass, $setinfo[storynum], $setinfo[umode], $setinfo[uorder], $setinfo[thold], $setinfo[noscore], $setinfo[ublockon], $setinfo[theme], $setinfo[commentmax]);
	if ($pm_login != "") {
            Header("Location: modules.php?name=Private_Messages&file=index&folder=inbox");
	    exit;
	}
        if ($redirect == "" ) {
            Header("Location: modules.php?name=Your_Account&op=userinfo&bypass=1&uname=$uname");
        } else if ($mode == "") {
            Header("Location: modules.php?name=Forums&file=$forward");
        } else if ($t !="")  {
            Header("Location: modules.php?name=Forums&file=$forward&mode=$mode&t=$t");
        } else {
            Header("Location: modules.php?name=Forums&file=$forward&mode=$mode&f=$f");
	}
    } else {
	Header("Location: modules.php?name=$module_name&stop=1");
    }
}

Also..apply the above fixxes in my previous post to fix the User Activation links it sends in the emails.

Now once that is done. You can TURN on User Activation in the Forum Admin configuration.

Your users will sign up and receive an onscreen message that either they will receive an Email with an activation link that they must clikc to activate their account or they will receive a confirmation email that their account has been activated by the Admin.(depends on the type of activation you choose, user or admin)

Now, if a user DOES not get Activate his/her account by following the link in the email or the Admin does not activate him/her, when they try to loggin to the site, it will reject them back to the loggin screen with "Loggin Incorrect"
You can change that text at the top of the Loggin Incorrect screen in your language file to read something like:
"Loggin Incorrect or your account is not yet activated, check your email"
Thats' what we did here at nukemods.

I hope this helps, cause now I have a hand cramp :?

Parse error: parse error in /home/bayridge/public_html/community/modules/Your_Account/index.php on line 655

Be careful when you paste CODE. It can lose it's format if done incorrectly.
Here's the code again to replace all the function loggin in Your Account module index.php

Code:

function login($uname, $pass, $redirect, $mode, $f, $t) {
    global $setinfo, $user_prefix, $dbi, $module_name, $pm_login;
    $result = sql_query("select pass, uid, storynum, umode, uorder, thold, noscore, ublockon, theme, commentmax, user_active from ".$user_prefix."_users where uname='$uname'", $dbi);
    $setinfo = sql_fetch_array($result, $dbi);
    $forward = ereg_replace("redirect=", "", "$redirect");
    if (ereg("privmsg", $forward)) {
        $pm_login = "active";
    }
    if ((sql_num_rows($result, $dbi)==1) AND ($setinfo[uid] != 1) AND ($setinfo[pass] != "") AND ($setinfo[user_active] == 1 )) {
	$dbpass=$setinfo[pass];
	$non_crypt_pass = $pass;
  	$old_crypt_pass = crypt($pass,substr($dbpass,0,2));
	$new_pass = md5($pass);
	if (($dbpass == $non_crypt_pass) OR ($dbpass == $old_crypt_pass)) {
	    sql_query("update ".$user_prefix."_users set pass='$new_pass' WHERE uname='$uname'", $dbi);
	    $result = sql_query("select pass from ".$user_prefix."_users where uname='$uname'", $dbi);
	    list($dbpass) = sql_fetch_row($result, $dbi);
	}
	if ($dbpass != $new_pass) {
            Header("Location: modules.php?name=$module_name&stop=1");
    	    return;
	}
	docookie($setinfo[uid], $uname, $new_pass, $setinfo[storynum], $setinfo[umode], $setinfo[uorder], $setinfo[thold], $setinfo[noscore], $setinfo[ublockon], $setinfo[theme], $setinfo[commentmax]);
	if ($pm_login != "") {
            Header("Location: modules.php?name=Private_Messages&file=index&folder=inbox");
	    exit;
	}
        if ($redirect == "" ) {
            Header("Location: modules.php?name=Your_Account&op=userinfo&bypass=1&uname=$uname");
        } else if ($mode == "") {
            Header("Location: modules.php?name=Forums&file=$forward");
        } else if ($t !="")  {
            Header("Location: modules.php?name=Forums&file=$forward&mode=$mode&t=$t");
        } else {
            Header("Location: modules.php?name=Forums&file=$forward&mode=$mode&f=$f");
	}
    } else {
	Header("Location: modules.php?name=$module_name&stop=1");
    }
}

IF you still get the Parse error, let me know and I'll send you OUR index.php file

OR
try changing your code there from this

Code:

654:       } 
655:          } else { 
656:       Header("Location: modules.php?name=$module_name&stop=1"); 
658:     } 
659: }

to this

Code:

654:       } 
655:           else { 
656:       Header("Location: modules.php?name=$module_name&stop=1"); 
658:     } 
659: }

Br00klynzzfinest · 01-24-2003, 09:04 PM

heh... dude.. Sorry for being a pain in the butt... I got that part fixed... but the emails being sent still have an incorrect addy in the link.

The activation link being sent is:

http://bayridgenights.com/modules.php?...........

It should be:

http://bayridgenights.com/community/modules.php?..........

Again sorry for being a pain, and thanks ever so much for the help.

Check and make sure you have the Correct path set in Forum Admin configuration under Domain name.
