ADDITIONAL CONFIGURATION

ADDITIONAL CHECKBOXES Each field that contains text will be shown as a checkbox which the user must tick to register. For example, if you enter "I am at least 18 years of age" in the text area, this will display as an additional checkbox, which must be ticked in order to proceed.

EXPLAIN CHANGES Explain what changes were made to the T&C since the last version. This will only be shown to users who accepted a previous version (authenticated users). Each line will automatically be shown as a bullet point.

FACEBOOK CONNECT

In facebook applications, click edit, click on Facebook User Settings. Click on "Do not create accounts Automatically". Then, when user DOES create account, it runs them through the Legal agreement.

VARNISH CACHE

Some users have reported that when a user who hasn't accepted the latest version of the legal terms attempts to login, they are logged out with the message 'Operation timed out. Please try to log in again.'

To fix this please add the following to your default.vcl file:

sub vcl_recv {
 if (req.url ~ "^/legal_accept") {
 return (pipe);
 }
}
