Thanks, Rogan! Ah, that's so easy. The hard part is finding the right file, so 
thanks for the direction!

You can change that text string in the register.tt2 file.

It'll look like this :

        [% IF ctx.register.success %]
            <h3>[% l('Registration successful!') %]<h3>
            <h4>[% l('Please see library staff to complete your registration.') 
%]</h4>

That's a great point, Bill. We will have to remember to add that question to 
the list in our brains.

I've been looking at your pre-registration page. (I love the addition of the 
PRE). I see that you added the ID fields. I might follow-up with you later if I 
decide to add custom fields, too.

Can you customize the message that appears after registration saying 
"Registration successful! Please see library staff to complete your 
registration." ? I don't like that it says success, since the patron isn't done 
yet. I want something that says "Almost done!"

Beyond a custom form gathering a few extra bits of information, today we're 
using most of the stock self-reg code.

We do run a query from cron to clean up leftover users after 30 days, but 
that's about it.

I think the only do's/don'ts came down to making sure that staff asked patrons 
if they had already pre-registered.  Initially we ended up with a fair number 
of users in the staging tables and the live user tables, until it became 
something staff were more familiar with using.

Holly,

You might talk to Bill Ott about this.  GRPL did some pretty cool stuff with 
patron self-registration.

I'm getting ready to set this up for our library (single branch, no

The instructions are pretty clear on where all the settings are (thanks to the 
doc. author!)... I really just wanted to get feedback from libraries who have 
implemented this, to see if there were problems that occurred during set up or 
after going live. Dos and Don'ts, lessons learned, how long you keep pending 
registrations, etc.

It's a procedure that appears straight-forward, which makes me suspicious! 
Thanks in advance for your comments!
