Certainly Arlex,

On my site I have restricted posting of new questions or replies only to users who are registered. Once EasyDiscuss is configured to allow only registered users to start a discussion or post replies, the "Ask a Question" button will redirect the user to the default Joomla create-an-account page.

From an User Experience perspective, redirecting a user to another page is not such a good idea. So as to get the goodness of both the worlds, I decided to open the "Create an account" page in a lightbox on the same page. This was achieved through a third party module and I called that module in place of the current code highlighted on the line above.
