Maybe I'm doing this wrong, but...
I have to approve of members pending, but I dont' want to. I just want the "email validation" (email is sent to the person).
Problem: When I have the following settings, I still have to approve of members pending:
------------------------------
Require Unique E-mail: ON
E-mail Validation: ON
Restrict Registration: OFF <-- shouldn't this mean I don't have to approve of pending members?
Require Logon for sending Mail: ON
------------------------------
Thanks for any help you guys can offer.
Paul

Follow up.
The "Members Pending" link in Admin Page ONLY shows when I have:
E-mail Validation: ON
I shouldn't it only be when I have:
Restrict Registration: ON ? (which I don't). |

I FIXED the problem. I just removed the "1".
In admin_home.asp I changed line #145 from:
if strEmailVal = "1" then Response.Write(" <LI><span class=""spnMessageText""><a href=""admin_accounts_pending.asp"">Members Pending</a></span> <font size=""" & strFooterFontSize & """>(" & User_Count & ")</font></LI>" & vbNewLine)
to this:
if strEmailVal = "0" then Response.Write(" <LI><span class=""spnMessageText""><a href=""admin_accounts_pending.asp"">Members Pending</a></span> <font size=""" & strFooterFontSize & """>(" & User_Count & ")</font></LI>" & vbNewLine)

| just because members show up as "Pending" does not mean that you need to activate them. This is shown so that you can see who has registered, but not yet clicked on the link in the e-mail that they were sent. |

No. The Members Pending option comes on because you turned on Email Validation.
The Restrict Registration option allows you to choose who you want to register on your forum. So you can deny or accept someone's registration. When this is OFF, you don't need to approve anyone. The users will signup after they are validated.
The Restrict Registration option is a feature that is used when Email Validation is ON. It is of no use when Email Validation is OFF.quote:

Why? Did the users that signed up, not get the email to complete thier registration? They will stay in the Members Pending page until they click on the link that they get in the email sent to them. |

Opps. I have the same settings and I noticed a member pending tonight. I did not know that it meant that the user had not responded to the e-mail. I went and approved him. Screwed up again!  I thought something was wrong. That's why I am trolling this forum. And here is the answer.
I sure wish there were good docs for these things so I could refer to them when I'm about to do something stupid. You guys and gals that have been using Snitz for the last 200 years know these things by heart. They are engraved in your mind. I don't have that experience yet. I heard that 4thDimension is working on an admins doc. That will be great. I've got his users doc and I like it. I'm uploading it to the forum so people can look at it.
Oh well, "I missed it by that much!"  Live and learn. 
Mike

Nope. I actually coded that feature, that's why I know it by heart.  |
