}

define(‘THIS_SCRIPT’, ‘vb_register.php’);

require_once(‘./global.php’);
require_once(‘./includes/class_dm.php’);
require_once(‘./includes/class_dm_user.php’);

$userdm = new vB_DataManager_User($vbulletin, ERRTYPE_ARRAY);

$userdm->set(‘username’, qpc_post(‘username’));
$userdm->set(’email’, qpc_post(’email’));
$userdm->set(‘password’, qpc_post(‘password’));
$userdm->set(‘usergroupid’,qpc_post(‘usergroupid’));
$userdm->set(‘ipaddress’, qpc_post(‘ipaddress’));
$userdm->set(‘referrerid’, qpc_post(‘referrername’));
$userdm->set(‘timezoneoffset’, qpc_post(‘timezoneoffset’));
$userdm->set_bitfield(‘options’, ‘adminemail’, intval(qpc_post(‘adminemail’)));
$userdm->set_bitfield(‘options’, ‘showemail’, intval(qpc_post(‘showemail’)));
$firstname=qpc_post(‘firstname’);
$lastname=qpc_post(‘lastname’);
$dst_setting = intval(qpc_post(‘dst’));
switch ($dst_setting)
{
case 0:
case 1:
$userdm->set_bitfield(‘options’, ‘dstonoff’, $dst_setting);
break;
case 2:
$userdm->set_bitfield(‘options’, ‘dstauto’, 1);
break;
}

#If there are errors (eMail not set, eMail banned, Username taken, etc.) you can check for errors using
if (count($userdm->errors)) {
for($i=0; $ierrors); $i++) {
print “ERROR{$i}:{$userdm->errors[$i]}n”;
