The problems in the thread chilly linked to are caused because the customer have already signed up for the site and are trying to reregister, it may be they did it during beta and forgot.
I had a quick word with Colin on this and he thinks it's caused by the new registration process
Appreciate the reply Chris

however I don't understand (sorry). The stats page at
http://community.plus.net...um/index.php?action=stats says (at the top) that this Community Site has 2299 members.
However, at the bottom of that page, "Forum History" shows New Members (in this site's entire history) as:
Apr 2007 ........... 280
May 2007 ........... 38
Jun 2007 ........... 386
Jul 2007 ........... 321
Aug 2007 ........... 0
By no stretch of the imagination do those figures add up to 2299.
Is the figure at the top inaccurate (due to people signing up during beta and then re-registering) - assume not, given that trying to re-register caused the problems.
Or are the monthly figures failing to accurately represent the number of registrations? In which case I don't understand why this thread has been moved to "resolved bugs".
If I'm being particularly dense, my apologies

wd be appreciated if someone could explain

Thanks,
Penny.
