Approve members

Are there anyway new members first can upload photos and make comments after I had approved them?

Chuck S · February 23rd, 2007, 09:28 PM

There is no approval on registrations in a stand alone install and if your integrating with a forum approval falls onto your forum

Ok thanks Chuck

KlausM · February 25th, 2007, 07:25 PM

Chuck Are the anyway that I can make some adjustements in the code so that any new members as default are unregistred?

What variable holds if they are registred, unregistred, banned etc. ?

Chuck S · February 25th, 2007, 07:27 PM

member.php when they confirm their registration they are placed in usergroup 4 which is registered and in 3 which is unregistered if they do not confirm

Your free to modify anything you wish

KlausM · February 25th, 2007, 07:43 PM

Thanks Chuck
But I wan´t them to stay in usergroup 3 even if they confirm, until I from the admin panel goes in and change them to registered.
Can I do that ?

Chuck S · February 26th, 2007, 09:56 AM

yeah you can just edit your register.php file look at this code change the 4 to a 3 in the update query

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

Thanks Chuck - it´s working :-)

Now I just have to find a way to I get an email everytime a new member sign in and had confirmed.

I can see that there are an options in the admin panel that says:
"Do you want to be notified of all new comments?"

That one I will newer use. Are there any way that I can change that to:
"Do you want to be notified of all new Members?"

That would solve all my problems with the missing approval on registrations in a stand alone installation.

Regards Klaus

Lines 323-341 of register.php show you how we send an email to users to verify there registration and you would have to similarly hack your code to send the admin an email now since this is outside product support I suggest you try posting in the mod corner if your lost on how to code it yourself.

KlausM · February 26th, 2007, 01:43 PM

Is it the line that says:

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

That are sending the mail?

Chuck S · February 26th, 2007, 01:54 PM

well that is simply one line of a whole larger block I am merely pointing you to an example of how mail in generated in the program. I would suggest if you want to discuss code modification issues which fall outside support that you post here

Yes I understand that it is only one line of a whole block, but what I where asking was, if this is the line actual sending the mail.

But why I´m asking here, is because it is an extension of my earlier question.

By the way, there are not much activity in the modcorner and not so many answers.

Chuck S · February 26th, 2007, 05:18 PM

yes that is the PHP line that sends an email but you need to code up some type of PHP code to build that new email you want which is why I sent you to the mod forum

This question has nothing to do with product support but is something you want to code into the software which is why I suggest you post there as this falls outside product support.

KlausM · February 26th, 2007, 08:36 PM

Ok thanks Chuck - I had solved the problem.
