I typoed in the above post it's '/$this->ValidationExpression/' not /'$this->ValidationExpression/' still need a solution...

Well hello everyone, I've installed a fresh copy of Vanilla which is a lightweight forum. But, I got a "Deprecated: Function eregi() is deprecated in C:\wamp\www\xfm\library\Framework\Framework.Class.Validator.php on line 93" when a user attempted to sign up. So I went to find that function and found: // Validate all defined variables // Returns boolean value indicating un/successful validation function Validate() { // If a regexp was supplied, attempt to validate on it (empty strings allowed) if($this->ValidationExpression != '' && $this->Value != '') { if(!eregi($this->ValidationExpression, $this->Value)) { $this->isValid = 0; $this->Context->WarningCollector->Add($this->ValidationExpressionErrorMessage); } } So what I did was change it to: // Validate all defined variables // Returns boolean value indicating un/successful validation function Validate() { // If a regexp was supplied, attempt to validate on it (empty strings allowed) if($this->ValidationExpression != '' && $this->Value != '') { if(!preg_match(/'$this->ValidationExpression/', $this->Value)) { $this->isValid = 0; $this->Context->WarningCollector->Add($this->ValidationExpressionErrorMessage); } } I no longer get the error but, now the board gives a: You did not supply a properly formatted value for email. But the thing is the e-mail is valid, anyone know of a solution?
