blith thanks for asking I almost made a post this morning but decided to wait to see if people would really be confused by the version numbering or if it was just me.

Short answer.
750 440 Beta1 should work on versions 6.5-7.5 and could be better described as CNB Your Account Universal. Personally I have only tested it on 7.4 and 7.5 sites. Don't let the Beta scare you that is because it is the first in the series of releases and has some new features and that is why it was moved up to 440.

What is it?
Its a direct replacement for PHPNuke Your Account module.

What does it do?
Gives admin more control over users and the registration process. Gives users some extended features to their UserInfo pages.

From the features.txt
Features in this version (+ denotes new features in this version):

- Users can be promoted to Admin by SuperUser ONLY.
- Also sets the user account as forum admin.

As to recommend it yes I like it very much and find it to be a nice addition to any site. If you haven't heard of it it is most likely because it used to be Bob's NSN-YAT and has been taken over by André V Escudero of [ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ] which is mostly in portuguese and that is why we are opening this forum to help others to find it and to use it. That and I've joined the dev team and hope to assist with keeping it a stable, feature rich choice for everyone to use.

If you do not like it changing back is not difficult at all.

Okay. thanks for the info! So in the readme it says the part about the warning. I can ignore that? It also says it is just for 7.5 at the beginning of the readme but I can use it with 7.4, right? And if you use it and are on the team then I am sure it is good!

Yes but you'll want to use the admin files in the extra directory for 7.4.
The only other quirk is that the files are compatable with Chatservs Nuke Patched versions not the original PHPNuke files. The $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] vs. $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'] thing. If your are using original PHPNuke file versions then its best to change the protection line back to using $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] like FB does.
