Community Auth Learning...

Okay I just modified the codes,

Code:

   private function _get_unused_id()
   {
       // Create a random user id
       //$random_unique_int = mt_rand(1200, 4294967295);
    $random_unique_int = mt_rand();

       // Make sure the random user_id isn't already in use
       $query = $this->db->where('user_id', $random_unique_int)
           ->get_where(config_item('user_table'));

       if ($query->num_rows() > 0) {
           $query->free_result();

           // If the random user_id is already in use, get a new number
           return $this->_get_unused_id();
       }

       return $random_unique_int;
   }

It works now, but I'm not sure why brian did that.
Brian??? lol

It could be that the max value available to mt_rand is 2147483647 and not 4294967295

You might try changing the number there and see if it works. I'll have to investigate, but try that and let me know.
