Is there another way to validate new users other than Email Validation. |
Answer |
For 4.1 build Feb 27, 02 and higher, there is a new and improved URL validation method than the one described below. It is now the default, and generates URLs less likely to break/wrap in email clients. If you run the old confirm@@ below, delete it from your webx.tpl and delete all the text contained in "Mail message template:" in the "Registered Users" Control Panel. Then reset your cache.
Yes.
Obtain, install and modify as necessary the macro "confirm" from "useful.tpl" at ftp://ftp.lundeen.com/pub/WebCrossing/Extras/Templates/
This macro lets you send an email validation message that
contains a URL for the new user to visit, instead of requiring the new user to
reply to the message. This is faster and simpler, no reply mailbox to manage. |
