Works great, one glitch though. When you view the post, it's missing the post icon causing a missing image..

Any ideas?

Ouch, it's been a while since I have been a new member, so I missed the welcome message...[Linked Image]

I will need to go over it and compare to privatesend.cgi...

Hey i'm very new to this! But i've found the error and fixed it!

Find this line:

print PMFILE "1|$UserName|$AdminName|Welcome|$WelcomeMsg|$datetime|Yes|01n";

Change to:

print PMFILE "1|$UserName|$AdminName|Welcome|$WelcomeMsg|$datetime|Yes|1n";

Now yopu have the Notice-Paper Icon!
You can put in there every Number you want!
Hope it helps! [Linked Image]

BTW: This Hack is very nice! Thx for it! Works great for me! [Linked Image]

Just a question about this Welcome PM mod.

Is it still being worked on? The reason I am asking is because I have noticed when a new member signs up it does send them a Welcome PM but now it does not send me an e-mail notification with the new users registration information.

Also it would be nice if you could have in the Welcome Letter some line spaces so that the line doesn’t have to be all bundled up together on 1 continues line.

But I do want to say this Welcome PM is nice and gives the new user a good feeling about the boards to start off with.

Yeah if this is updated with those fixes above, I'm installing this without a doubt!

well, i did all of this mod. And then i went to save it and then it only let me save as .txt, and i saved the file as this:
ubbmisc.cgi
it turned out like this:
ubbmisc.cgi.txt
and i used wordpad because NotePad said it was too big[Linked Image]
any suggestions?
