If you answer a question - or someone answered one of your questions - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status selector is below the edit box.

3: paste this in UnprocessedRegistrations topic then return here

I have answered your question about #3 and your code look good. the registration takes place at the main. Move the UnprocessedRegistrations file over to the main

sorry but I dont understand the instructions

when you edit the BulkRegistration topic, you will see that UnprocessedRegistrations topic is set to be in the Main web, eg... Set REGISTERTOPIC = %MAINWEB%.UnprocessedRegistrations

Therefore, create the UnprocessedRegistrations topic in the Main web, unless you set the REGISTERTOPIC to be located at another web.

The following should be inserted into your REGISTERTOPIC as a table. in this case, the REGISTERTOPIC is the UnprocessedRegistrations topic that is located at the Main web

| FirstName | LastName | Email | WikiName | CustomFieldThis | SomeOtherRandomField | WhateverYouLike |
| Test | User | you@example.com | TestUser | A | B | C |

now copy and paste everything within the verbatim of the above. and then save the UnprocessedRegistrations topic

next: goto TWiki.BulkRegistration and continue at step #4

Steve et al: If you feel the DistributionDocumentation can be made more explicit, by all means, please do so.
