Admin confirmation required on register?

Hello everybody.

I'm currently working on designing a site, and I don't want anybody registering on the site without my confirming it. I've set up the mail settings, but I haven't found anything about it.

So, is there a way to set things up so that if somebody registers, it will send my admin account an e-mail requiring confirmation before the account is activated?

Sorry if this is an ignorant question, I'm still new to mojoPortal, and ASP for that matter.

Thanks,
Isaac

Re: Admin confirmation required on register?

There is a setting in Web.config to notify admins on new user registration. But, it does not prevent the account from being active.

What you can do is create role for "Members" and protect your pages with this role so new users will not be able to see the content until the admin adds the user to the members role. When you get the notification email you can decide whether to add the user to the role.

Hope it helps,

Joe

I see. Well, I'm not really sure about the whole 'roles' thing.

But I'll figure it out eventually. If I have more questions I'll post them with a more relevant thread title.

Thanks!
