[pmwiki-users] FAST Membership & newuser.php

Hi all,

Just uploaded a new version of FAST Membership called newmember.php
which allows website visitors to create their own new member accounts,
and write it to a htpasswd file, PLUS it passes those values to the
redirect page as session variables for use in a confirmation page, a
"part 2" registration form, or to create a one click login button.

Thanks for everyone's help with understanding the session variables in
developing the script.  It seems to be working beautifully.  The
recipe can be found at the bottom of the page at
http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/Cookbook/FASTMembership.  Would appreciate
any suggestions for tidying up the script--as I'm not much of a coder
(but getting better!).

Actually, I was thinking about replacing FAST Membership (a 3 in 1
recipe) with this single function recipe and encouraging admins to use
Htpasswdform for the remaining functions (changing passwords and an
admin interface).  It doesn't seem logical to me to have two separate
recipes duplicating the same functionality.  Any input on that?

Cheers,
Caveman
