   Hiho,
   I'd like to allow visitors to register AND submit a story on the same page.
   Right now, they have to
   1. register
   2. check their email
   3. login
   4. submit a story

   I'd like to have :
   1. on the same page, fill email information, submit a story (maybe choose their password)
   2. (maybe) confirm their story by clicking a link in their email (to prevent spam)

   Any idea of a plugin I could use, or a simple hack to do that ?

   (I need that feature for a WP-as-a-directory plugin)

   I finally worked around with that code :

   // New user autologin
     // user unknwown, let's create it, log him in, and allow him to submit his site
     // wp-login is included with output buffering to define functions without output
     ob_start();
     include_once(ABSPATH.'/wp-login.php'); // for function definition (register_new_user() )
     include_once(ABSPATH.'/wp-includes/registration.php'); // for function definition (validate_username() )
     ob_clean(); 
   
   	$errors = register_new_user($username,$useremail);
     if ( is_wp_error($errors) ) {
   	wp_redirect('wp-login.php?action=register');
   	exit();
     }
     else $user_id = $errors;
   
     // auto login
     $user = new WP_User($user_id);
     wp_set_auth_cookie($user_id, true);
