I like the new feature of the welcome to new members. However it is hard to welcome them if you can'e add to that thread. I tried to give a welcome to Testacc the first new member welcome that I saw and it would not accept it. so I guess I will have to start a new thread for that.And now I see another new one as well. I think it would be good to be able to add my own welcome as an addition to the original welcome post.
Strange as I was just able to add to the thread for the last additional new member. Wow AnthonyG sure wears a lot of hats. Thanks!!!
Thanks seaweed,I'll try again.
You did not pick up on the the user name "Testacc". Which would stand for Test Account. I would think anyway. That's why it was locked right away. It was just a test.
I guess I failed it then:opps:
Welcomes can be posted to the two Spyderbot threads that I found.
Yup! It's all working as planned now... :thumbup:
I guess the first one was in the wrong category anyway. roflmao
There was multiple test signups to get the script working correctly, as it wasnt originally designed to work on a site that new users get moderated, as this site does.
I use it on multiple sites, but the new users on those sites arent moderated, this site has a case of spambot signups, i've cut them down so far with new coding to stop bot's, but its still hard to check actual ppl doing it, but also have some stuff for them as well.
If i can get 40-60% of the new users active on their own signup post, they typically stay & remain active on the site, thats what its all about in a forum community.
