Anyone ever made a script that will re-send the members pending their account activation email? If not anyone up for building it?
It doesnt seem like it would be that hard to do...

Nice one laser.. I agree with spy that this would be a really useful addon. Is it possible to integrate this with the login box, so that if you login and havnt validated email it informs you and then you can resend the validation email to a different email address if you wish, for people who dont get their email and dont want to go through the bother of contacting the admin etc.  |

I never logout, but it is possible. How would you know what different email to use though ?
Basically I give pending members 15 days, then delete them. |

| It would come up with a form field with their email address when they login but have not validated email address, saying do you wish to resend email to the following account, and then it updates the database to reflect whatever new email they chose and sends out the registration code to that account. |

| No its just I find some people dont get the email for whatever reason, so try to login anway, and if instead of not letting them login it says "you have not yet validated your email" etc. then that would be a useful feature |

I have a similar problem of people not receiving and confirming the notification email when they change their email account. So, their email address as shown is invalid, and yet the system won't let them change their email address if they try again, saying that the email address they want to change to is already in use -- since it is in the DB as their pending email address....
Any suggestions on this one? Any way to regenerate the email change notification? |

Not quite answering your question but for all the others: I made a little change to the code for it does not send reminders to members that aren't yet approved:
Look for
Set c = Server.CreateObject("Adodb.Connection")
c.open strConnString
Set rst = c.execute ("SELECT * FROM FORUM_MEMBERS_PENDING")
and replace it with
Set c = Server.CreateObject("Adodb.Connection")
c.open strConnString
if strRestrictReg = "1" then
Set rst = c.execute ("SELECT * FROM FORUM_MEMBERS_PENDING WHERE M_APPROVE = 1 ")
else
Set rst = c.execute ("SELECT * FROM FORUM_MEMBERS_PENDING")
end if
...makes a little bit more sense

| that's because if they haven't been approved yet, then they shouldn't be getting an e-mail. Only after you have approved them should they get the e-mail with the activation link in it. |
