2 Quick Newbie Questions

Hi guys, I'm sure the first person reading this will be able to answer my questions so I'll make this post small and to-the-point.

1. How do I change the email verification when users sign up? I don't want new users to have to check there emails after signing up

and

2: How do I customise the menu at the very top (On this page the links being [Contribute : Support : Downloads : Forum : Links : Polls : Calendar : Directory : Advanced Search] )

Sorry for the extremely dumb questions LOL

Serach for 'custom registration' and maybe this (but it is for an old GL version):

Hmm, I'v searched around the forums and FAQ quite abit and still can't find a solution, I'm not worried about automated sign ups, I just have no access to a mail server and would rather my users have instant login access after signing up.
I keep thinking there must be an easy way to solve this (Maybe I missed something in the config file?) If anyone knows please point me the right direction

Thanks for the replys. Big Grin

This was a solution for an older Geeklog version:

Usually the email registration is quite o.k. Most people here don`t have an own server just webspace.

Maybe someone else can give a hint concerning a hack for 'custom registration'?

Method doesn't appear to be working, lines of code are different from the examples given:

Text Formatted Code
$display .= createuser (COM_applyFilter ($HTTP_POST_VARS['username']), COM_applyFilter ($HTTP_POST_VARS['email']));


actually reads

Text Formatted Code
$display .= createuser (COM_applyFilter ($_POST['username']),
                                COM_applyFilter ($_POST['email']));



Text Formatted Code
USER_createAndSendPassword ($username, $A['email'], $A['uid']);


actually reads

Text Formatted Code
USER_createAndSendPassword ($username, $A['email']);


ect, ect.

I added the new parts in without removing the old ones
example of the last one which was supposed to be changed to

Text Formatted Code
USER_createAndSendPassword ($username, $A['email'], $password);


But I changed it to

Text Formatted Code
USER_createAndSendPassword ($username, $A['email'], $A['uid'], $password);


The end result looked good, with the password feild on the signup page, but once signed up get the error "You may have mistyped your login credentials. Please try logging in again below..." when attempting to login with the password I entered on the signup page.

Sorry the third and forth codes are mixed up, should be the other way round.
