In the Registration section you can Register a new user, edit the registration agreement that members need to agree to when registering to your forum, unless it is disabled. You can also set reserved names that no one can register as along with basic settings to handle new members such as disallowing members of a certain age, whether to require admin approval, email confirmation or nothing at all. You can also disable registration altogether.

• Username - The username. (Required)
• Email Address - The email address of the user. (Required)

Registration Agreement

If you want to turn on Registration Agreement you must put a check the box for, "Show and require agreement letter when registering." This makes every new member agree to your terms before allowing them to register. Otherwise if this is disabled no registration agreement will be shown on the registration page.

To edit the registration agreement for your forum, place whatever you like to be in the agreement for your forum in the large box on the top of the page. You may use both HTML and BBC in the registration agreement.

Set Reserved Names

With reserved names you can enter certain names that you would like to disallow people to be able to use. The names you put in the reserved name box will disallow the use of these names for a username or Display name of a member. Only type in one reserved name per line.

On the Set Reserved Names page there is  a text box for you to enter names. The default reserved names are:

• Admin
• Webmaster
• Guest

Other Options In addition to modifying the names in the list there are a few other options you can use.

• Match whole name only. If unchecked, search within names. - This allows you to choose whether or not you would like your forums to match the name exactly to what you have typed, or have it search for what you have typed within a username or display name.
• Match case. If unchecked, search will be case insensitive. - This allows you to choose whether or not your Forum will match words even if it has different capatalizations. Check this to have it match the case and ignore reserved names with different cases.
• Check username. - This allows you to choose whether or not your Forum will reserve usernames for the names you put in the reserved name list.
• Check display name. - This allows you to choose whether or not your Forum will reserve display names for the names you put in the reserved name list.
