Hannes this is fantastic,

I would love to see in future updates the ability to put a simple field which requires the user to enter a coupon or registration code, which has been predetermined and even hard coded into the php file rather than a full backend module.

Even something as simple as:
-User signs up with your autoresponder
-User is sent 1st email which has the registration code and link to the registration page
-User enters code (along with usual info)
-If correct user gets access (to registered member content)
-If incorrect user gets sent to a page stating 'incorrect code' with a link back to try again

This would be almost the same as your Terms of Use setup but with a text field instead of a radio button field.
I'm trying to do it myself but I'm a real php noob.

Great add-on so far, will definately be adding it to all my sites.

Cheers

This works great - easy to install as long as you read the "read me" text. Also one note - you may need to type in the module position rather than just selecting it when you go to place your custom html block in your template, as it is not there be default.

This almost works. Sadly you have to disable your wysiwyg editor before creating the terms module or the raw html will be output. And if you install this you will no longer be able to create users in the administrator of joomla as it fails because you have to accept the terms but you cant as there isnt a box to tick in the backend

You are so wealthy of ideas, Hannes. If just one click and we can use it, it would be better I think. Well done ;)
