user_temp module feature request

It would be a nice feature if you would allow maintainence of the users_temp table to activate people arbitrarily.

This is useful for sites running on dynamic IP blocks that have their emails blocked by the RBL's out there (i.e. AOL, TimeWarner, etc.)

My biggest pain is that my site accepts registrations for new accounts on those domains but my site cannot send email to them because of this block. I've been hand-approving their accounts in MySQL Control Center because of this. I know it kinda defeats the purpose to have site registration at all, but I do plan on moving this site to a web host in the near future and that would fix those problems.

But for now, this would be a useful feature for your module for people such as myself.

Well, just an additional function that does what I said above... allows you to approve a prospective member that is stuck in the users_temp table. I've been typing in the URLs by hand to do this since my site is in a dynamic IP block and AOL, rr.com and others refuse mail from it.

Just got back from vacation and I will add this feature as well as a Modify function. I will probably just hyperlink the display of the link so the admin can just click it. OK?

I have released an update that regenerates the password and displays the unencoded password in the confirmation e-mail Laughing

.

Also, the link is now a hyperlink so that the Admin can just activate the user if he wants to.

I have made [yet] another modification to allow Modifications to the user_temp record. Just download it and replace the file Cool
