Hi!

I have the newest MyBB version 1.6.4 and everything worked fine. Now I have the problem, that some spammers are creating many user accounts (with e-mail verification!) and fill my forums with spam.

So I changed the system to 'activate by admin'. But the admin get's now e-mail if a new account was created.

I tested the e-mail function on my server, and this worked fine. I don't know where I have to search for a solution.

Please help,
Christian.

By default, admins don't get an email when a new user signs up. You need a plugin:

Hi!

This Plug-In is not compatible with version 1.6.0.4 of MyBB.

Greetings,
Christian.

1. Open ./inc/plugins/email_admin_new_member.php in a text editor.

2. Find:

'compatibility' => '14*',

3. Change to:

'compatibility' => '16*',
