1.
When registering or submitting a link the submitted email address should be checked. I have a lot of people submitting some cryptic sh* in that field. So if the script makes ure that the field at least contains a '@' it would really help. Maybe it's even possible to prevent certain domains, just like when submitting links ?!?
(BTW, is there a chance that this is not working when editing links afterwards?)


2.
On the search/edit in the drop downs containg 'is exactly, contains', etc. is it possible to add a 'does not contain' option?

I don't believe editing is designed to exclude domains.

#1: Already done if email is a required field, to apply when it isn't: In suggest.php replace 
    if ( (strstr($settings->requiredlinks, 'email')) && (!strstr($email, '@')) )
with 
   if ( ($_POST['email'] != '') && (!strstr($email, '@')) )


#2 I'll have to check later.

There are two types of searching on that page, one using edit.php and the other using search.php. For the former open /admin/adminfunctions.php and replace every instance of 
if ($condition == 'like') $condition = "$field LIKE '%$fieldvalue%'";

with 
if ($condition == 'like') $condition = "$field LIKE '%$fieldvalue%'"; 
else if ($condition == 'not like') $condition = "$field NOT LIKE '%$fieldvalue%'";


For search.php I think you need to relace 
    else if ($condition == 'like') 
 
    { 
 
     $generatesearch .= "$searchfields[$count] "; 
 
     if ($condition == 'like') $generatesearch .= "LIKE '%$search%'"; 
 
     else $generatesearch .= "$condition '$search'"; 
 
     if ($count < ($num-1)) { if ($action == 'filter') $generatesearch .= " AND "; else $generatesearch .= " OR "; } 
 
    }


with 
    else if ($condition == 'like') 
 
    { 
 
     $generatesearch .= "$searchfields[$count] "; 
 
     if ($condition == 'like') $generatesearch .= "LIKE '%$search%'"; 
 
     else $generatesearch .= "$condition '$search'"; 
 
     if ($count < ($num-1)) { if ($action == 'filter') $generatesearch .= " AND "; else $generatesearch .= " OR "; } 
 
    }    
    else if ($condition == 'not like') 
    { 
     $generatesearch .= "$searchfields[$count] "; 
     if ($condition == 'not like') $generatesearch .= "NOT LIKE '%$search%'"; 
     else $generatesearch .= "$condition '$search'"; 
     if ($count < ($num-1)) { if ($action == 'filter') $generatesearch .= " AND "; else $generatesearch .= " OR "; } 
    }


Then, in both cases, just place a condition option with the value "not like" in the template where you want it.

On a similar note, is it possible to make it so that proper email syntax is checked when a new member is signing up (not sure if this would be the same as a person submitting a link)? I get a lot of people signing up with incomplete email addresses (example: george@, x234@hotmail, davidb, etc). Also, email is already selected as a required field on the Functionality page.

Thanks,

Register.php 
 $templatesdir = $settings->templatesdir; // correct problem of wrong template set being used  
 
 $correctsecurityimage = securityimagevalue();

-> 
 if ($_POST['email'] != '' && !strstr($email, '@')) { $incomplete = true; $incompletelang = $language->suggest_invalidemail; } 
 $templatesdir = $settings->templatesdir; // correct problem of wrong template set being used  
 
 $correctsecurityimage = securityimagevalue();

I implemented this code, but had someone sign up today with an email address missing the .com (name@hotmail). Is there a way to check for at least one "." after the "@"?

Change
if ($_POST['email'] != '' && !strstr($email, '@'))

to
if ($_POST['email'] != '' && (!strstr($email, '@') || !strstr($email, '.')))
