Re: Admin / Moderator confirm registration

If you get the e-mail, how will people get their password?

User get email without activation link, Moderator get dublicate email with activation link.

Another way is special page to activate users (only) manually.

I to be confronted with uncontrolled users registration sad.

Open up register.php and look for

pun_mail($email1, $mail_subject, $mail_message);

Replace $email1 with i.e. 'your_email@example.com'

But then you will have to send them an e-mail manually with the password.

And what is bad about that? Shouldn't people be able to login if they forget their password?

Re: Admin / Moderator confirm registration

Yes, but I can't see how that has anything to do with this. login.php?action=forget only works for people who are already registered.

Re: Admin / Moderator confirm registration

Aha, now I see. Well, then I guess you'll have to disable it. I can't imagine people would go to such lengths to register lots of accounts in your forums, but here's how to disable it:

1. Open up login.php.
2. Locate

else if ($action == 'forget' || $action == 'forget_2')

3. Before that, add: /*
4. Locate

else
{
    if (!$cookie['is_guest'])
        header('Location: index.php');

5. Before that, add: */

That should do it.

Re: Admin / Moderator confirm registration

Isn't there a feature that allows the admin to approve registrations?  I would have thought that would be standard.  So, for example, a forum can be read by the public but only members of an organization can join and post to it.

(Looks like some sort of line-wrapping for the Code Block would be handy. wink )

In 1.2, the code boxes get scrollbars if the code is too long or too wide.

Re: Admin / Moderator confirm registration

Is there a feature that allows the admin to approve registrations?   In other words, can a forum be set up so that only members of an organization can join and post.
