Signup process doesn't work correctly

JayTR

When someone tries to sign up as a new user in one of the forums, the process doesn't work correctly.  They give a username and email address, but when they click on the link in the confirmation email, they get an error message.

To see what I mean, go to http://sjforums.newsgrouphosting.com , sign up as a new user using any name and email address you choose, and then click on the link you receive in the confirmation email.

How can I fix that?

Hi,
as of my knowledge you should be shure that the new users don´t have any space inside their user names.Maybe this causes the error? At leas those with space in their user name can´t login later and don´t get their account confirmated.

Thanks.  I know it's not the username because I tried it with single word, no spaces, usernames.

The newsgroups I have set up so far are really just for me to experiment with until I can get everything set up the way I want it.  So there's no problem if you or anyone else wants to try it to see what I mean.  Just go to   http://sjforums.newsgrouphosting.com and try clicking on "Register" to sign up as a new user.  When I try using the "Register" function, it says it worked.  But then when I go to the email address I used to register, I get an error message.

We are still working on this.  It seems as if registration is working correctly, but the email link is sometimes incorrect.

Stay tuned...
