Getting someone else's vB forum to resend the activation email?

**Soliloquy** · 07-27-2008, 08:42 PM

*sigh*
I have a couple of domains still on a very crappy webhost (I didn't choose it) and have been trying to get through to their customer support because I can no longer access the accounts for some reason. They don't answer emails and I really don't have time to try and call them and wait on hold. I tried signing up for their vBulletin support forum a few weeks ago but never got a confirmation email. Tried again tonight with a new email address but still no confirmation email. I can't use the contact form becausse the link just pops open an email to their support address, which I know will go unanswered.
Is there some way I could trigger that forum to try sending it again? I could have sworn there was a URL with querystring that could do it, but darned if I can find it now.

the link your looking for is

http://www.domain.com/forum/register.php?do=requestemail

just tack that onto the end of the register.php from the forum root.

Tried the URL with no results, which is kinda what I figured if the first two emails didn't make it. Back to banging my head against the wall. Thanks anyway Caddy...

change your email in usercp to something else? can you do that with the level of access you have now? change it to like a gmail addy or something....

Have you checked your SPAM or JUNK folder? If you have it disabled, maybe enable it and try resending the code.

Or add the domain to your trusted list in your email.

Oh thank heavens, someone in their customer disservice department finally woke up and read my emailed pleas. Crisis averted, thank you everyone who tried to help.
