Re: Duplicate Email accounts

If i remember correctly there was a bug report over at fluxbb about this. When registering, the email address has to be unique, however, when changing it in the profile, it isnt checked to see if its unquie.

This should be sorted once the Devs chase this issue up.

Sorry. Unactive due to personal life.

Re: Duplicate Email accounts

Ok,

its checked at both register and changing of the email, but if the p_allow_dupe_email var is set this can't be an error big_smile

Fixed in [1126]. The fix differs from what has been done in FluxBB.
