Re: [xwiki-users] how to approve new xwiki users ?

Hi Claudio, There is currently no approve feature. The only feature we have included is a mail confirmation system. This is the closest thing that could be transformed into an approval system. While working with different users that had different registration/user management policies, I realized that there are a number of features needed for registration. These include: - email validation and confirmation - invitations using a passcode - registration approvals Currently registration is handled by an API (createUser) and then integrated in the application using XWiki pages. So each of these features can be "hacked" using the scripting language but it would be nice to actually rework the registration system and take into account all these cases in a registration feature included in the engine. So there are two ways to implement: 1/ Use the mail confirmation system (changing a param in the call to createUser), including an email and text in the registration page that says: "your account is on hold until it has been approved". You will need to add a "cc" to your admin email or create a wiki page or RSS feed with unapproved accounts. Then you can make an approval page where you can switch the "Active" field to "on". 2/ Rework the registration system to handle all in a "register" account and allow to configure the registration behavior in the preferences. Only the fields asked in the registration would be configurable in a Wiki page. Also a placeholder for anti-spam verifications should be included. You are welcome to help. We can discuss any of these implementations here. A good thing would be to document how this has been setup in your case.
