MyBB Community Forums

This is real simple, and can be done in the matter of minutes, depending of how much you add on to it.

First, go to your MyBB ACP>Templates & Style>Templates>And the current theme your using.

Then scroll down and expand Members Templates, after that scroll down further till you see member_register_agreement. Click that.

Once there find:

<td class="trow1">

As you can see there are several {$lang->agreement_#} segments. The {$lang->agreement_5} should be very last.

If you desire you can add any HTML between {$lang->agreement_4} and {$lang->agreement_5}.

Example:

<tr>
<td class="trow1">
<p>{$lang->agreement_1}</p>
<p>{$lang->agreement_2}</p>
<p>{$lang->agreement_3}</p>
<p>{$lang->agreement_4}</p>
<br/>

NOTE: You must do this on every theme to keep it working.

And wollah!

When new members register, they will have to read your agreement as well!

Enjoy!

Thanks for this, i wanted to know this

Why not do it a better way and just add text to one of the language variables??

Yeah, a friend told me about that.
But this is mostly for people that don't really want to risk on going to the Language_files in the ftp to change it around, just a easier way to do it this way.

Anyway I added a note to the tutorial.

You can edit language variables in the ACP.

Great post, i will use this
