Any news about this? It's been almost three weeks now and I really miss this feature, Auto Welcome is great when it's working.

Not for a few more weeks unfortunately. Still flat out with bug fixes for all my apps.

Thanks for letting me know!  Good to have an estimate.

No issue for me as long as people understand it's not currently a core feature.

Technically yes but IPB4 doesn't make things easy for me. If you open applications/autowelcome/hooks/validatehook.php. I'll have to confirm with the code but if you remove the "validationComplete" function and the second if statement in the "postRegistration" function.

	    /* Welcome member straight awway */
	    if( \IPS\Settings::i()->reg_auth_type == 'none' OR \IPS\Request::i()->do == 'complete' )
        {

That should in theory welcome the member after email validation but before admin validation. But it would need to be tested and I may be missing some improvements that IPB 4.1.14 or later may have introduced.

I will check this and see if it works.

Any chance this can be made to post a welcome message in Chatbox like it did in IPB 3

Provided it supports 3rd party messages, I don't see why not. Check with the author and I might be able to include in the soon to be released next version.

I have validated that this is working.

That's a yes @Mike John! You can include it

@Volstate

You can use the Chatbox Extender after you have the welcoming messages post in a forum.

I don't have it set to make posts upon welcoming people in. I'd much rather it be added so it can just go straight to the Chatbox like it did in the previous version

I haven't tried it this way but possibly you can make the welcoming forum only visible to admin / mods.

I assume the above reply helped but if not, make sure you follow this install guide - http://www.devfuse.com/forums/tutorials/article/162-install-application-guide/

I'll note it for the next version and I should be able to get it included in the next few weeks.

Assuming you haven't made any changes, I just checked the code and it should already be setting the "system" flag as true.

[InvisionHQ]

Then I leave PM sender blank?

No the code itself has that set and should be send as "system" personal messages. Are the personal messages filling up your sent box or something like that?

[InvisionHQ]

Yes, I've 20/30 new pm at day... In the previous version there are a flag "leave conversation".

[EricT]

The app should work with  Facebook/Twitter signups ?

There have been some issues reported, so it's not 100% yet.

[IrishInsanity]

Does this still work?

I've got not major bugs reported to me. There will be a new update to round up a few of the smaller bugs very soon.

No not yet and I'm a bit hesitant to provide another ETA until I'm sure I can meet it. It will be updated with it but can't say when just yet.
