Hmm, it works for me

Quick way how to accomplish this:

- disable email requirement for user verification
- in groups, create group with NO permissions
- set this group as IsStart and unset any other
- in admin > users you'll see newly registered users un group with no permissions
- you approve user by moving him to group equivalent or similar to default group "Registered Users"


If you want to do it the other way round, you need to either alter SP or create new one and plug it to extended logic. Try browsing SP entitled to create new users.

Go to Admin > Board Settings, there it is.

I shall find time for this tomorrow so if you let me help you, I'm sure we'll find solution.

What conversion are you talking about? HTML to ASPX is 1:1 conversion.

Why do you post it in YAF issues & bugs is beyond me

You're not the first one who reports difficulty setting up YAF in subfolder. I'll look into it when I got some time to spare.

FP:Ederon

Not out of box. You'd have to look at pages/posts.aspx(.cs) and do the trick there. Look where those buttons are enabled/disabled. Enable them for guest user and rest should do on its own.

Sure, just alter counting mechanism to actually count moved topics. That is, topics with TopicMovedID other than NULL. You'll easily recognize code needed to change in SPs (I described above).

AFAIK categories containing no public forum is hidden. Just mark all forums within category "hide if no access" and those with no rights won't see it.

IIRC, there are just following places where posts are counted.

1. when message is posted (on its approval, which can be automatic when forum is not moderated)
   
2. when post is moved
   
3. when topic is moved
   

Moved topics are not counted IIRC, even when they leave pointer behind.
