Plugin Request - Force Registration

a_5mith

Ok so perhaps not a paywall per se. But a registration reminder via a light box or some form. Gentle encouragement plugin or something.

@a_5mith How about a global widget that asks everyone to register?

I'm also suggesting a widget.
Maybe a widget-plugin that adds a template to hide until a specific amount of topics got visited and to provide the amount for the widget-contents (taking care of uniqueness).

You've already read 16 different topics. Wouldn't you mind to register?

Maybe just a guest-statistics plugin that collects (and provides to templates) some information like that for each single guest.

@julian That is horrible and I wish people would stop doing it!
Easy to bypass though

Cookies with a redirect.

If the user can't be bothered to register, then they probably can't be bothered to clear their cookies.

How about a giant sidebar ad with a message that says "Sign in to remove this ad, registration is free!"

Anon users rack in some extra $ and more people end up signing up. Win-win

Not a fan of ads. Adblock being popular and all that.

What if its a giant "I NodeBB" banner then?
