Nice feature, Dave. Good work. Is there a way to add to the quick registration, say an opt in yes/no check field for the EZ NewsLetter eMailer for vBulletin (http://www.cpurigs.com/forums/showthread.php?t=5148) add in?

I really like this. It takes visitors from essentially "No Soup for YOU!" to a nice meesage prompting a new registration. I may have to upgrade to the Professional verison this weekend. Thank You!:)

Thanks, we've had some good success in its first week selling 10 copies, and getting a few coding face lifts to be more efficient and standards compliant and the feedback we've recieved so far from everyone has been positive and they're loving it!

We've just added the support for required custom profile fields. Now users won't get an error message when registering and not having the ability to enter custom fields.

I can't get this hack to work. Also, in the Options it doesn't let you redirect them to the page of your choice. I installed the xml product, what more should have I done?
