Dear all

I have one feature that I hope to find in IPB. Which is the ability of the root admin to reserve a set of "Display names" and "login names" ... so no body can register a new membership with these names.

I hope to hear an answer from IPB developers...

Best Regards

it's possible yes, but we're not allowed to answer your queries here, you'll have to requestion on ips beyond.

Or pre-register the accounts...why save the names and not just pre-register the entire account?

This is already in IPB, just add names to the ban filters.

It is difficult to preregister them , suppose I want to reserve 10 or more names... I have to have 10 e-mails and to activate 10 times...

Thanks stobbo: but, can I really put unregistered names in the ban filter. Or it is only for prerigestered names?

I used it to stop people registering names in 1.3, so I guess it still works in 2.2.

I have used it to stop people registering names...

The ban filter indeed will not let you register a name that is added to it. This will work as well, however you'll probably need to remove it from the ban filter when you finally want to allow use of it.
