   ck,

   Thanks for writing this plugin! I run a bbPress forum for a locally-owned radio station, and I would like to include a Terms of Service agreement. I'll have the station manager consult with his lawyer before installing it, but it should prove very useful.

   Ok, I installed it, but nothing was displayed on the registration page.

   I edited the terms file with generic text for testing purposes. Saved the file and uploaded the entire folder to my-plugins. Then I activated it through the admin panel.

   I assume that's all I have to do... the terms should show up on my registration page without any editing, correct?

   Yes it should just show as the last item on the registration page.

   You have it in a sub-directory called
   /terms-of-service/ right?

   Also let me know what happens when you try ?terms_of_service on your url.

   Yes, the sub-directory is /terms-of-service/

   When I add ?terms_of_service to the end of the URL, the Terms of Service in my HTML does appear in my template. But there's no registration info... just the terms.

   I just realized... this site is using 0.8.3. I assume that will make a difference here....

   I was waiting to update both my bbPress and WordPress until most plugins were supported. It's probably safe for me to do that now.

   Ah that could make a big difference, though I'd have to look at why, probably because of bb_get_location and "register-page" which I don't think existed in 0.8.3

   Just make sure you don't use WP 2.6 yet, stick to 2.5.1

   Thanks for the tips. I'll try to upgrade when I have some free time this week.

   Great plugin! Very easy to use and customize. Might be nice to add the ability to edit the ToS within the admin panel, and provide rich text options for those folks who don't want to HTML the whole thing. ;)

    Finally upgraded to 0.9.0.2 and the plugin works perfectly. Thanks again, _ck_!

    If you want a slightly more friendly error then on line 35 comment out 'die()'

    and add

    bb_get_header();
    echo "<br clear='both' /><h2 id='register' style='margin-left:2em;'>".__("Error").
    "</h2><p align='center'><font size='+1'>".__("You must agree to the Terms of Service").". "
    .__("Please go back and try again").".</font>";
    _get_footer();
    exit;

    In Wordpress use "disclaimer me" plugin's that despite is old, however runs with some modifications to the php. Is it impossible does the same with your plugin? To change any code to make it compatible with bbpress 1.01?

    Would be great to use this plugin with 1.02. =)

    10 seconds of testing shows it actually works fine with 1.0
    but I'm not getting into everyone's weird problems with it
    especially if they they insist on using deep integration.

    Is there a way to force users to agree with the TOS again, after an admin made some changes to it?

    Exactly what I'm after too. It seems that there is no plugin for ToS that works with v1.0.2 . It's quite a big issue.
