Geeklog Forums

I host my own site, and as a result I have to get rid of all the e-mail functions from things, as they only cause errors. If anyone knows a way of removing the e-mail comfirmation thing, please tell me.

"I host my own site, and as a result I have to get rid of all the e-mail functions from things, as they only cause errors." Geeklog uses PHP's built-in mail function. If you can't use it, then your server is not set up correctly. "If anyone knows a way of removing the e-mail comfirmation thing, please tell me." To remove the email confirmation just modify users.php file.

I know my server is a bit messy. Also, I don't have a working smtp thingy. How would I change it so that the user could just enter the password that they want?

You'll have to change the section in that file where it prompts a person for username and email to username and password. Then, you'll have to comment out or delete the section which generates and forwards the password via email. There are a few other places where an email can be generated like if a person loses his password. I don't know how much work it is to disable all the email. I'm swamped right now so I don't have the time to go in and figure it out.
