Adding registration instructions

**UKDarkstar** · 04-17-2009, 04:13 AM

When users register for the site and enter their email address I want to have a comment to be seen like this :

Please enter a valid email address for yourself.

If you are representing a company you must use your company email address.
If you are representing a company you must enter your username in the following format:
"Company name Yourname" eg. "Examsim Dave" or "Compteach Anne".

I've had a nose around in the admin cp and assume it would mean altering a template but I'm not quite sure where I need to look.

Pointers anyone ?

Many thanks

You must do that manualy in the 'register'-template (Style manager>> registration templates>> register )

Where to put it? Depends on your style and taste. I have it under the piece of code for the passwordconfirm. I have placed there the words that free mailaccounts cannot be used etc, works like a charm.

Hope it helps for you!

Ah right. OK, found the template but I'm not into coding at all. Might have to leave that or find someone who will do it for me as i really don't want to screw it all up !

Thanks anyway

You can do it yourself just fine, beleive me.
Just paste the complete code of the register-template on a notepad so you have the original code when things go wrong (kind of back up).

Now here is my piece of code, it is somewhere halfway the template, maybe it looks the same for you

Code:

<td>
						$vbphrase[confirm_password]:<br />
						<input type="password" class="bginput" name="passwordconfirm" size="25" maxlength="50" value="$passwordconfirm" />
					</td>
				</tr>
				</table>
			</fieldset>
			<div align="center">
  <center>
  <table border="2" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="border-collapse: collapse" bordercolor="#FF0000" width="56%">
    <tr>
      <td width="100%">
      <p style="margin-left: 10; margin-right: 20; margin-top: 0; margin-bottom: 0">
      <font face="Arial Unicode MS">Het is NIET mogelijk aan te melden met een E-mail adres van een gratis dienst (zoals Gmail, Hotmail, Live etc)Heeft u enkel een gratis Emailaccount en wilt u toch inschrijven? Neem dan contact met ons op via het

      <font color="#FF6600">contactformulier</font></a></b></font></td>
    </tr>
  </table>
  </center>

			<fieldset class="fieldset">
				<legend>$vbphrase[email_address]</legend>
				<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="$stylevar[formspacer]" border="0" width="400">
				<tr>
					<td colspan="2">$vbphrase[enter_valid_email_address]</td>

The purple part is what I added for my board.

Yup, all double dutch to me (pardon the pun !). I may have a fiddle at the weekend but as you say, keep a backup of what it should be like.
