I want to put a warning message on the registration page, Is there a way in the script that enables us to do that?

There isnt at present. What is it you are looking to add though? Is it perhaps something you can tag onto a language string?

I would like to put a warning message warning not to use temporary mail

There used to be a free plugin which did this, are you using v5? If that's the case I don't know if there's anything out there yet that does this.

It's something I do myself.

-Edit

Sorry, I'll find the link to the plugin I use, I see you are using v4. I'm currently on my mobile, but I'll find it.

Message on Signup Form

Unfortunately, I don't remember who Edward is. I hope someone can help you track it down.

You can also do this manually by changing the relevant template and adding the text. Although manual edits aren't recommended, but it's an option should there be no third party stuff that do that.

This is it, it would be great if someone could update it.

This can be done with CSS. Ugly hack but does the job. Bear in mind I tested this only on the non-popup registration page.

To show message over form:

div.cRegister_noSocial > div:first-child::after {
  content: "Test message at the top";
  background-color: red;
  color: white;
  display: block;
  width: 100%;
  padding: 10px;
  margin-top: 10px;
}

To show message over the email field:

div.cRegister_noSocial li#form_email_address::before {
  content: "Test message over email field";
  background-color: red;
  color: white;
  display: block;
  width: 100%;
  padding: 10px;
  margin-top: 10px;
}

This trick would be great but it doesn't work for me.

Depending on what you need to put there. I used the ACP language translation to place this info on the registration page. It’s not as tidy and neat as how I wanted it to display, but it’s quick and it works.

It would be nice to have the built-in ability to add a message. We block Yahoo email usage because it is a coin flip if Yahoo blocks our domain. Having a clear message about that as well as temporary emails would be great.

Hi, is the language "username_desc" a default IPS key? I can't find that language key in my IPS v5.

OK. I figured it out. Now I know I can add a description key, "desc," to any existing language key by using the ACP language option "Add Phrase."

It now looks much better than how I had it before.

Add key (username_desc) or (email_address_desc)

Then, edit the language translation.

Glad you figured it out. I'd forgotten how I got there. Does work nicely, though.

This is a good solution, but it is still not well visible, as most users do not care about the words that are in these places, especially if they are using other languages.

This is the best solution currently, but it does not work for me, it will be a great help if someone can implement it

It doesn't matter if they care or not. All warnings are system set. In my case, they will care, look, and read the bright bold pink text properly when they try to use numbers in a username to create an account and realise the site won't allow them.

One solution is better than having none.

Try this CSS. This should work both in popup and standalone registration form, not sure about social logins as I'm not using them and have no ability to test.

form.ipsForm--register-popup > div:nth-of-type(1)::before {
  content: "Test message at the top";
  background-color: red;
  color: white;
  display: block;
  width: 100%;
  padding: 10px;
  margin-top: 10px;
}

form.ipsForm--register-popup li#form_email_address::before {
  content: "Test message over email field";
  background-color: red;
  color: white;
  display: block;
  width: 100%;
  padding: 10px;
  margin-top: 10px;
}
