Moderate User Registration?

Hi there...

Does anyone know if there is a way to have new registration moderated so that an admin has to approve a registration request?

Thanks,

Here's one option, try the modification suggested Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login!, once done go to your forum's admin section and set user activation to admin.

here is a simple tutorial on how to use the Forum registration.

Find this in modules/Your_Account/index.php

Code:

case "edituser": 


        edituser(); 


        break;

Replace with

Code:




case "edituser": 


        Header("Refresh: 0; url=modules.php?name=Forums&file=profile&mode=editprofile");    


        break;

And Find this

Code:

case "new_user": 


        new_user(); 


        break;

Replace with

Code:

case "new_user": 


        Header("Refresh: 0; url=modules.php?name=Forums&file=profile&mode=register");    


        break;

will this work for wanting to have new nuke user accounts not receive the email activation, but instead have admin approval before their account is created or this just for the forum part of the site? thanks! Smile

Yes. By the way, I fixed the code above. Google Tap was mangling the URLs

For those that wish to know, when GT is enable on a site the ? between modules.php and name causes the url to be rewritten into the html equivalent.

to prevent this issue when posting your code for review use & #63 ; without the spaces in place of the question mark.
