This error has recently started cropping up for some new applicants.
We cannot process your registration because there has already been 2 new registration(s) from your ip address in the past 24 hours. Please try again later.
The only thing new I've installed is a header announcement plugin. I've disabled it and the issue is still there on a test registration and there were no new registrations from my ip address.
Newest version of MyBB, 1.6.4 (1604).
Forum site is
http://vasvw.org/forum/
Any ideas?
Thanks, Bill
The message is pretty self explanatory. They are not being allowed to register because 2 accounts have already been created from that IP, this is to prevent multiple accounts.
If alot of your users share ips (for example from a school/university) then you can either raise the limit or disable it all together.
Admincp >> Configuration >> User Registration and Profile Options
Look under "Time Between Registrations" and "Maximum Registrations Per IP Address"
Thanks but no, that's not the issue. The prospective members were not trying to set up an account from any IP address where another account was set up. This is an issue that just recently cropped up and, I actually set up three accounts from the same computer and the same home address. At times I've also logged out of my account and went in to the registration area and was able begin a registration with no problems and in fact created a fourth user that I later deleted.
Same Problem just cropped up. Again, these are people who have not tried to register more than one time and the message crops up upon their first attempt. I've had them reboot their computer to no avail.
Any ideas here?
Can you put this in a php file (like ip.php) in the same folder as your forum and run
http://example.com/yourforum/ip.php and post a screenshot of the results here.
<?php
define('IN_MYBB', 1);
include './global.php';
echo "My IP: ".get_ip();
echo "<br /><br />";
$q = $db->query("SELECT regip,regdate FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."users ORDER BY regdate DESC LIMIT 30");
while($result = $db->fetch_array($q))
{
echo $result['regip']." @ ".my_date($mybb->settings['dateformat'].' '.$mybb->settings['timeformat'], $result['regdate'])."<br />\n";
}

It shows the server IP, any idea how to fix it?
